Chemistry Chapter 1-4
Absorption - ANS - when energy must be added to an atom in order to move an
electron from a lower energy level to a higher energy level
\Accuracy - ANS - the closeness of a measurement to the correct value of the
measured quantity
\Angular Momentum Quantum Number - ANS - (l) indicates the shape of the
orbital
\Atom - ANS - the smallest form of of an element that still retains its chemical
identity
\Atomic Mass Unit - ANS - 1 amu= 1/12 the mass of a carbon-12 amu
\Atomic Number - ANS - the number of protons of each atom of that element
\Avagrado's Number - ANS - 6.02214179 (or 6.02) x 10^23 is the number of
particles in exactly one mole of a pure substance
\Average Atomic Mass - ANS - the weighted average of the atomic mass of the
naturally occurring isotopes of an element
\Chemical - ANS - any type of substance that maintains a definite composition
\Chemistry - ANS - the study of the composition, structure, and properties of
matter, the process that matter undergoes, and the energy changes that
accompany these processes
\Compound - ANS - a type of substance able to be broken into simpler substance;
made of two or more chemically bonded elements
\Continuous Spectrum - ANS - the emission of a continuous range or frequencies
of electromagnetic radiation
\Conversion Factor - ANS - a certain ration derived from the equality between 2
units that can be used in converting one unit to the other
\Density - ANS - (d=m/v) ratio of mass divided by volume
\Derived Unit - ANS - formed by combinations of SI units that are produced by
multiplying/dividing standard units
\Dimensional Analysis - ANS - a math technique that permits the use of units to
solve problems involving measurements
\Electromagnetic Radiation - ANS - a form of energy that exhibits wavelike
behavior as it travels through space
\Electromagnetic Spectrum - ANS - all of the forms of electromagnetic radiation
\Electron - ANS - negatively charged particles
\Electron Configuration - ANS - the arrangements of electrons in an atom
\Element - ANS - substance that is purified and cannot be broken down into
simpler substances and it created from one type of atom
