Study Notes
Potassium Chlorate Experiment
- Heating potassium chlorate produces oxygen gas.
pH Scale
- Measures the acidity or basicity of a solution.
Nuclear Reactors
- Main purpose: create energy through nuclear fission.
Significant Figures
- Rounding 4.756 to two significant figures results in 4.8.
Protons in an Atom
- Protons are located in the nucleus of an atom.
Crystal Growth
- Factors affecting crystal size include the temperature of the solution.
Oxidation
- Defined as the loss of electrons from a substance.
Sodium Nitrate in Water
- Sodium nitrate dissolves into sodium ions and nitrate ions.
Electrical Current
- Current refers to the flow of electric charge.
Voltage Definition
- Voltage is the pressure that pushes electrons through a circuit.
Mixing Solutions
- A solid formed from mixed solutions is called a precipitate.
Supersaturated Solutions
- A solution is supersaturated if it has dissolved more solute than it can normally hold.
Crystal Structure
- Atoms in a crystal structure are arranged in an ordered and repeating pattern.
SI Unit for Mass
- The SI unit for mass is the kilogram.
Gravity
- Best defined as a force that pulls objects toward the center of the Earth.
Density and Mass-Volume Increase
- If both mass and volume of an object increase equally, its density stays the same.
Catalyst Role
- A catalyst speeds up a chemical reaction without being consumed.
Exothermic Reactions
- Define reactions that release heat.
Decomposition of Compounds
- A decomposing compound breaks down into simpler substances.
Solid Material After Reactions
- The solid left behind after a reaction is referred to as a precipitate or residue.
Static Electricity
- Occurs when electric charges accumulate on the surface of a material.
Example of Static Discharge
- A lightning bolt exemplifies static discharge.
Conductors
- Conductors, such as copper, allow electricity to pass through them.
SI Unit for Electric Current
- The SI unit for measuring electric current is the ampere.
pH in Daily Life
- pH helps identify dangerous substances in food and water.
Mass Density Comparison
- Different materials can have different densities, explaining mass variations despite similar sizes.
Noble Gases Reactivity
- Noble gases are stable due to full electron shells, making them less reactive.
