Study Notes
States of Matter
- Three states of matter: Solids, Liquids, Gases
- Each state of matter has different properties and arrangements of particles
- Solids, liquids, and gases are made of particles
Solids
- Solids usually do not flow or change shape
- Solids cannot be compressed
- Particles are closely packed
- Volume remains the same
Liquids
- Liquids can change shape and flow
- Liquids take on the shape of the container
- Liquids do not easily compress
- Volume remains the same
Gases
- Gases change shape and their volume
- Gases can spread out in all directions
- Gases can be compressed
Acids and Alkalis
- Acids usually taste sour
- Alkalis usually taste soapy
- pH scale measures acidity/alkalinity
- Neutral substances are neither acid nor alkali
- Different indicators show different pH levels
- Universal indicators show a range of colors for different pH levels
- Litmus paper turns red in acids and blue in alkalis
- Red Cabbage indicator changes color in different pH levels
Neutralisation
- Neutralisation is a reaction when an acid and an alkali are mixed together
- This reaction produces a neutral substance
