What are chemists' three central goals and what kind of questions should be asked? -
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
Correct answer ✔Analysis- What is this?
|! |! |! |! |!
Synthesis- How do I make it? |! |! |! |! |!
Modeling- How do I explain it? |! |! |! |! |!
intensive property - Correct answer ✔DO NOT depend on the amount of material
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
Melting point, boiling point, density, color
|! |! |! |! |!
CHARACTERISTIC |!
of a material
|! |!
extensive property - Correct answer ✔Depend on the amount of material
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
Length, Mass, Area |! |! |!
Independent of the type or identity of the material |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
Tell you HOW MUCH
|! |! |!
quantitative - Correct answer ✔any value recorded directly from a tool is considered
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
quantitative data (numbers based) |! |! |!
qualitative - Correct answer ✔It includes such descriptions as color as well as observations
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
about texture changes and anything else that is actually an opinion (try describing the
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
difference in color between two different blades of grass)
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
significant figures rules - Correct answer ✔1. Zeroes in the beginning of a number never
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
count.
, 2. Zeroes at the end of a number count only if there is a written decimal point.
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
3. The digits 1 - 9 always count.
|! |! |! |! |! |! |!
4. Zeroes between the digits 1 - 9 always count.
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
matter - Correct answer ✔anything that has mass and occupies space
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
substance - Correct answer ✔that object which has mass and occupies space
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
composition - Correct answer ✔the makeup of something (components)
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
state - Correct answer ✔its physical form/condition
|! |! |! |! |! |!
three states of matter - Correct answer ✔gas, liquid, solid
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
solid - Correct answer ✔-atoms or molecules pack close to each other in fixed locations
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
-vibrate but do not move around or past each other
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
-fixed volume and shape
|! |! |!
crystalline - Correct answer ✔case in solid state where atoms or molecules are in patterns
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
with long-range, repeating order ex) salt and diamond
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
amorphous - Correct answer ✔case where a solid's atoms or molecules do not have any
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
long-range order. ex.) glass and plastic |! |! |! |! |!
liquid - Correct answer ✔atoms or molecules pack about as closely as they do in solid
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
matter however they are free to move relative to each other, giving liquids a fixed
|! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |! |!
volume but not a fixed shape.
