This flashcard set covers fundamental concepts in chemistry and physics, including atomic structure, states of matter, chemical bonding, and reactions. Learners will practice key definitions, such as atomic number, ions, covalent bonds, and the pH scale, while also exploring theories and laws like Dalton's atomic theory and the Law of Conservation of Mass. Additionally, the set introduces essential topics such as the periodic table, isotopes, and types of reactions, enhancing understanding of the relationships between matter and energy.
Card 1
What is the atomic number?
The atomic number is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.
Card 2
What are the three states of matter?
The three states of matter are solid, liquid, and gas.
Card 3
Who proposed the atomic theory?
John Dalton proposed the atomic theory in the early 19th century.
Card 4
What is an ion?
An ion is an atom or molecule that has gained or lost one or more electrons.
Card 5
What is a covalent bond?
A covalent bond is formed when atoms share pairs of electrons.
Card 6
What is the pH scale?
The pH scale measures the acidity or basicity of a solution, ranging from 0 to 14.
Card 7
What does a catalyst do?
A catalyst speeds up a chemical reaction without being consumed in the process.
Card 8
What are acids and bases?
Acids release hydrogen ions in solution, while bases release hydroxide ions.
Card 9
What is the periodic table?
The periodic table organizes elements by increasing atomic number and groups similar properties.
Card 10
What is an element?
An element is a pure substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances.
Card 11
What is the molar mass?
Molar mass is the mass of one mole of a substance, measured in grams per mole.
Card 12
What distinguishes a solution?
A solution is a homogeneous mixture of solute and solvent.
