Study Notes
States of Matter
- Atoms of an element are tightly packed together in a solid state.
Chemical Changes
- Burning paper is a chemical change as it reacts with oxygen, producing heat and light.
- Baking dough results in a chemical change due to the transformation of ingredients.
Precipitation
- The solid that forms when two liquids undergo a chemical reaction is called a precipitate.
Molecular Movement
- In a chemical reaction, molecular movement decreases as temperature decreases.
Physical Changes
- Carving a statue from a marble slab is a physical change since the substance remains the same.
- Liquids in a beaker settling in layers illustrates the property of density.
- Condensation best represents a physical change among the provided options.
- A change in state also exemplifies a physical change.
Mass and Chemical Reactions
- In a closed system, if 32 grams of one chemical combines with an unknown amount, and the total mass is 114 grams, then 82 grams of the unknown chemical was used.
- The mass of water before separation into gases remains equal to the combined mass of hydrogen and oxygen gases afterward.
- Mass remains unchanged during a chemical reaction.
New Substances
- A chemical reaction results in the production of a new substance, distinguishing it from physical changes.
