Flashcards

Chemical change

A change in matter where a new substance is formed with different properties. This change is often irreversible.

Physical change

A change in matter where the form or appearance changes, but the substance itself remains the same. This change is usually reversible.

Covalent bond

A bond between two nonmetals where electrons are shared between the atoms.

Ionic bond

A bond between a metal and a nonmetal where electrons are transferred from the metal to the nonmetal.

Study Notes

Chemical Changes

  • Involve energy changes (heat or temperature)
  • May produce a change in smell
  • Can often be reversed
  • Result in the formation of a new substance
  • May show a change in color

Physical Changes

  • Can be reversed
  • Do not create new substances
  • May involve a change in size

Solutions

  • Mixtures of multiple components, often indistinguishable
  • Example: Coke contains various substances not visually separable

Chemical Mixtures

  • Mixtures of components easily visible
  • Example: Chicken pizza shows separate components (chicken, cheese, bread)

Density

  • Density (D) = Mass (M) / Volume (V)

Isotopes

  • No specific detail provided

Covalent Bonds

  • Form between two nonmetals
  • Involve the sharing of electrons

Ionic Bonds

  • Occur between a metal and a nonmetal
  • Involve the transfer of electrons (metal loses, nonmetal gains)

Compounds

  • Made from two or more different elements joined together
  • Examples: Hâ‚‚O, HCl
  • Use prefixes (e.g., dioxide, trihydrogen) only when both elements are nonmetals; otherwise, use standard element names

Formulas

  • Represent elements and their bonds
  • Show electron sharing or transfer
  • Use dots to visually represent electrons involved in bonding

Diatomic Molecules

  • Seven elements naturally exist as diatomic molecules
  • Memorization trick: "Have No Fear Of Ice Cold Beer" (Hâ‚‚, Nâ‚‚, Fâ‚‚, Oâ‚‚, Iâ‚‚, Clâ‚‚, Brâ‚‚)
