Why does plasma not exist on Earth?

It's too hot. 
100

How many elements occur naturally?

~90

100

What is a compound?

Pure substance in which the atoms of two or more elements are chemically combined in a fixed proportion

100

What are characteristic properties of matter?

Properties that are always unique to an individual element or compound. 

100

If you hold a bonfire with lots of friends and you start with 100kilograms of wood at the beginning of the night, how much matter is left after the bonfire?

100kg. Law of Conservation of mass. 

Even though the wood might have burned into ash and smoke, the total amount of matter remains the same. 

200

What is the difference between evaporating and boiling?

Both are forms of vaporization but evaporating only occurs at the surface of liquids at any temperature but boiling occurs throughout a whole liquid at a very specific temperature. 

200

What are the two types of pure matter?

Elements and Compounds. 
200

Which of the following is a colloid?

Water

Sand in Water

Paint

Paint

200

What are three examples of characteristic properties of matter?

Color, Solubility, Density, Melting point, Freezing point, Boiling point, etc. 

200

What are two examples of physical properties?

Color, density, elasticity, melting point, freezing point, boiling point, condensing point, sublimating point, depositing point, etc. 

300

What happens to particles when a liquid turns into a solid?

The particles lose energy/heat and slow down causing the liquid to turn into a solid. 

300

Why don't we see many naturally occurring elements in our everyday lives?

Most combine into compounds. 

300

What is an Element?

Pure substance made up of atoms that are all alike. 

300

Do mixtures have characteristic properties? Explain your answer. 

No, their characteristics are defined by the pure substances that make them up. 

300

What are two examples of chemical properties?

Reactivity, flammability, oxidation states, toxicity, etc. 

400

What happens to particles when a substance goes from a solid to a liquid?

The particles heat up causing them to move faster which causing the solid to turn into a liquid. 

400

What does it mean when we say a compound has a fixed composition?

It means compounds are made of specific amounts of atoms of elements. Ex. H2O is water. The moment you add anything to it, it becomes an entirely different compound (H2O2 is hydrogen peroxide). 

400

Which of the following is a suspension?

Water

Sand in water

Paint

Sand in water

400

What is a physical property?

Any characteristic of a material that you can observe without changing the identify of the substance 

400

What is a chemical property?

Any characteristic of a material that you can observe and that produces one or more new substances 

500

How does particle motion relate to temperature?

The higher the temperature the faster particles move. 

500

Come up to the board and draw an accurate matter chart. 


500

What is a mixture?

Matter composed of two or more substances that can be separated by physical means. 


Not chemically combined. 

500

What is a physical change?

A change in size, shape, or state of matter in which the identity of the substance remains the same. 

500

What is a chemical change?

A change of one substance to another is a chemical change.
