Bushong Chapter 2 questions with 100%
complete solutions
All things in the universe have ____ and _____. - correct answer ✔✔Matter,
energy
Describe the theory of relativity. - correct answer ✔✔That matter and energy are
interchangeable
Who developed the theory of relativity? - correct answer ✔✔Albert Einstein
What is the formula for Einstein's mass-energy equivalence equation? - correct
answer ✔✔Energy (E) = mass (m) x speed of light in a vacuum (c)^2
Define matter. - correct answer ✔✔Anything that occupies space and has mass
- The material substance that composes physical objects
Is mass the same as weight? Why or why not? - correct answer ✔✔No, mass is
not the same as weight because weight includes the gravitational pull on the
object as well.
List the structures of matter from smallest to largest. - correct answer ✔✔1)
Atom, 2) Element, 3) Molecules, 4) Chemical compounds
, What is an atom? - correct answer ✔✔An atom is the building blocks of matter. It
is the smallest particle of any matter that has the properties of an element.
What is an element? - correct answer ✔✔An element is any quantity of identical
atoms that combine to form a particular element
What is a molecule? - correct answer ✔✔A molecule is atoms of various elements
that may combine to form structures.
What is a chemical compound? - correct answer ✔✔A chemical compound is any
quantity of one type of molecule.
Chemical compounds are created via what type of bonds? - correct answer
✔✔Covalent and ionic bonds
Define covalent bonding. - correct answer ✔✔When two or more atoms share an
outer shell electron
Define ionic bonding. - correct answer ✔✔When two or more atoms are bound
together because one atom gave up an outer shell electron.
What does ionic bonding cause? And how? - correct answer ✔✔Ionization, due to
the imbalance between positive and negative charges.
Who has the earliest recorded reference to the atom? - correct answer ✔✔The
Greeks.
