100

Scientific way to represent Molecules/Compounds. Includes what type and number of atoms in molecule (i.e. H2O, NaCl, CO2, C6H12O6, etc)

Chemical Formula

100

  H2 +  O2 →  H2O

2H2 + O2 →  2H2O

100

State of matter where particles have definite shape and definite volume. Particles are at lowest kinetic energy at this state

Solid

100

Elements or Compounds which exist prior/ BEFORE (LEFT SIDE) of a chemical equation

Reactants

100

This subatomic particle has a positive charge

protons

200

Type Mixture that has Same composition throughout. (When split, each sample looks identical). (i.e air)

Homogeneous Mixture

200

KClO3 →  KCl +  O2

2KClO3 →  2KCl +  3O2

200

A change from one state of matter (solid, liquid, or gas) to another without a change in chemical composition. PHYSICAL CHANGE

Phase Change

200

Total amount of mass of the reactants is 100 grams, what must the mass of the products be?

100 grams

200

This subatomic particle is located in the nucleus and has no charge

Neutrons

300

A type of pure substance that cannot be broken down into any other substance by physical or chemical means. MADE UP OF ONLY ONE TYPE OF ATOM

Element

300

C2H4 + O2 →  CO2 + H2O

C2H4 + 3O2  → 2 CO2 + 2H2O

300

Explain the reason that water in solid state (ice) floats on top water in liquid state

It has a lower density, this makes water unique.

300

I have two reactants. One reactant is 35 grams, the other is 45. What is the total mass of the products?

80 grams

300

What makes every atom unique? How do I know an oxygen atom is an oxygen atom and not a hydrogen atom?

Atomic number (# of protons)

400

Total amount of kinetic and potential energy of the particles in a substance/object

Thermal Energy

400

 CO2 + H2O  → C2H5OH + O2

2 CO2 + 3 H2O   →  C2H5OH  + 3 O2

400

When the temperature is not increasing in the graph, but we have thermal energy being applied to the system. What is the main form the thermal energy is in?

Potential energy

400

I have two reactants. One reactant has a mass of 50 grams, the other has a mass of 40 grams. They produce two products. One product has a mass of 30 grams. What is the mass of the other product?

60 grams

400

What subatomic particle is the most important for determining chemical reactivity?

Electrons

500

Matter (atoms) can neither be created nor destroyed. Atoms can only be rearranged through chemical reactions.

Law of Conservation of Mass

500

N2 + H2O  → NH3 + NO

5 N2 + 6H2O  → 4NH3 + 6NO

500

How is it possible that a an iceberg can have more thermal energy but a lower temperature than a cup of coffee

thermal energy is dependent on amount of substance as it is total potential and kinetic energy.

500

Explain how law of conservation of mass (matter) and energy work together in a chemical reaction

Teacher will judge

500

How come if most of all matter in universe is empty space? We don't just pass through all matter like ghosts
