Explain the difference between qualitative and quantitative properties.

Qualitative properties are explanation of characteristics using words

Quantitative properties are explanations of characteristics using number

What is the commonly forgotten about 4th state of matter? (worth double points if you can explain what that state is)

Plasma

State in which all atoms are ionized (electrons not orbiting one nucleus)

300

Explain the difference between physical and chemical change?

Physical change: Change in matter that does NOT alter the chemical composition

Chemical change: Change in matter that DOES alter the chemical composition

300

What are subatomic particles made of?

Quarks

300

What are the horizontal rows of the periodic table called?

Periods

300

What does the law of conservation of mass state?

Atoms cannot be created or destroyed

Mass reactants must be the same as the mass of the products

Name 2 different scientist who developed different atomic models and provide a basic explanation of their model.

Dalton, Thomson, Rutherford, and Bohr.

Would also accept Schrodinger but did not talk about this model as much.

400

Name 2 special families of elements that have distinct names.

Alkali metals

Alkaline earth metals

Halogens

Noble gases

400

Name two key points of the kinetic molecular theory.

1)All matter is made up of very small particles

2)The particles exist in empty space

3)The particles are constantly moving

4)Energy makes particles move

500

Name 4 types of changing of states of matter

Melting, Freezing

Vaporization, Condensation

Sublimation, Deposition

500

What are two examples of chemical reactivity properties?


Many options. Ones covered in class are:

- reactivity with acids

- reactivity with oxygen

- combustibility

- lack of reactivity

500

The word "atoms" comes from the Greek work "atomos". What does atomos mean?

Uncuttable or indivisible 

500

Why do we not include or care about electrons when counting the atomic mass of an element?

Mass of the electron is so small in comparisons to protons and neutrons that it is negligible.
