Molecules
How do you calculate density?
Density = mass / volume
What type of charge does a proton have?
Positive
This law states that during a chemical reaction, no mass is gained or lost.
Law of Conservation of Mass
This law states that within a system, no energy is created or destroyed.
Law of Conservation of Energy
What is the term that describes a resistance to a change in motion?
Inertia
Process where heat transfers from an area of higher energy to an area of lower energy.
Conduction
What type of charge does an electron have?
Negative
What is the purpose of a catalyst in a chemical reaction?
Catalysts speed up chemical reactions
What are 2 ways to increase the amount of potential energy an object has?
Increase height or mass
Equation for speed.
Speed = distance / time
What happened to the mass and volume in our popcorn experiment?
Mass decreased
Volume increased
What type of charge does a neutron have?
Neutral
Does the identity of a substance change in a physical reaction or chemical reaction?
Chemical reaction
Equation for potential energy.
PE = mass x gravity x height
What is the main difference between distance and displacement?
Displacement includes a direction
What happens to molecules when they are heated?
Gain energy, move faster, separate slightly
Which of the 3 subatomic particles has the smallest mass?
Electron
Give 2 examples of a physical change.
Breaking glass, cutting paper, melting ice
Equation for kinetic energy.
KE = 1/2 x mass x velocity2
How do you determine the net force on an object?
Calculate the sum/difference of all forces acting on the object.
Name 2 characteristics of molecular behavior in a gas.
When using a periodic table, what 2 quantities have the same value as the atomic number?
# of protons
# of electrons
Give 2 examples of a chemical change.
Digestion, baking a cake, burning wood
What is the kinetic energy of a 50 kg object moving 10 m/s?
2,500 Joules
Describe the shape of a line showing constant speed on a velocity-time graph.
Horizontal line, parallel to the x-axis.
