Nature of Science
A well supported scientific explanation that is always true no matter the circumstance.
What is a Scientific Law?
A property of a substance that can be observed or measured without changing the chemical identity of the substance.
What is a Physical Property?
1 mol of any gas occupies ___ liters at STP.
This phase change causes a gas to turn into a solid.
What is Sublimation?
The energy of motion.
What is Kinetic Energy?
This type of science has no basis in scientific fact and is rooted mainly in beliefs.
What is Pseudoscience?
A property of substances that describes how it reacts to other substances and changes its chemical identity as a result.
What is a Chemical Property?
Expressed as moles of solute per liter of solution.
What is Molarity?
The electromagnetic radiation released during the process of radioactive decay from an unstable nucleus.
What is Nuclear Radiation?
This law states that if temperature increases then so does pressure.
What is Charles' Law?
A scientific explanation that is very well supported.
What is a Scientific theory?
A negatively charged ion formed when an atom gains one or more electrons.
What is an Anion?
The particle formed when an acid loses a Hydrogen ion.
What is a Conjugate Base?
This reaction requires energy to be present as a reactant.
This law states that if volume decreases then pressure increases.
