  • What are the two types of physical properties?
    1.Intensive properties
    2. Extensive properties
  • What are the 5th state of matter?
    1.solid
    2. Liquid
    3. Gas
    4. Plasma
    5. Bose Einstein Condensate
  • These are the smallest unit of matter that can't be broken down chemically
    • Atoms
  • These are the groups of two or more atoms that are chemically bonded
    • Molecules
  • These are the particles that have gained or lost one or more of their valence electrons
    • Ions
  • It's a hot ionized gas consisting of approximately equal numbers of positively charged ions and negatively charged electrons.
    • Plasma
  • Is a process of separating the components of a suspension
    • Filtration
  • The solid particles are allowed to settle first at the bottom and later, the liquid called supernatant is poured into another container leaving behind solid particle
    •  decantation
  • Is the process of converting liquid to gas, is useful in sorting mixtures such as salt solutions
    •  evaporation
  • Isa a process is separating the homogeneous mixture composed of two substances with different boiling points
    • Distillation
  • Is a process is separating elemental metals from other particles in a mixture
    • Magnetic separation
  • Is a process the can be used in extricating mixture that contain two substances with different melting points
    • Melting
  • Is a process of changing solid to gas without paying through the liquid state
    • Sublimation
  • The mixture is poured into a special tube in the centrifuge apparatus, and is allowed to spin using centrifugal force
    • Centrifugation
  • What are the 8 separating mixtures
    1. filtration
    2. Decantation
    3. Evaporation
    4. Distillation
    5. Magnetic separation
    6. Melting
    7. Sublimation
    8. Centrifugation
  • What are the 6 chemical properties
    1. Combustibility
    2. Stability
    3. Reactivity
    4. Relative activity
    5. Ionization
    6. Toxicity
  • Whether is reacts with acids, bases, and oxygen, gas our not.
    •    Reactivity
  • Whether it will break into charged particles when in solution with water or not.
    •  Ionization
  • Whether the substance undergoes combustion or not
    • Combustibility
  • Whether the substance can be easily decomposed or not.
    •  stability
  • Whether the material is more active or less active than other member of its chemically family
    • Relative activity
  • There are properties that can only observed when there is a change in the composition of the substance
    • Chemical properties
  • These are characteristics of matter that can be observed or measure without changing the composition of the substance
    • Physical properties
  • The densities of objects are all different
    • Density
  • Substances react to heating differently.
    • Heating properties
  • Aluminum and iron can conduct heat well and so they are used for pots and pans
  • These are substances that can be attracted to magnets
    • Magnetic properties
  • Some substances are better conductors of electricity than the others
    • Electric properties
  • Copper wire is good conductor while rubber and plastic do not conduct easily
  • Iron, cobalt, nickel are magnetics   
  • Aluminum, copper, zinc are non magnetic   
  • The ability of the substance to be dissolved in a given solvent
    • Solubility
  • The characteristics of plasmas are significantly different from those of ordinary neutral gases so that plasma are considered a distinct “ fourth state of matter”
  • Whar are the 4 properties of matter
    1. Physical properties
    2. Chemical properties
    3. Intensive properties
    4. Extensive properties
  • It does not depend on the size or amount of the sample
    • Intensive properties
  • These can be affected by the size and amount of the sample
    • Extensive properties
  • What are the 3 particles composing of matter
    1. Atoms
    2. Molecules
    3. Ions
  • Consist of nonmetal atoms held together by covalent bonds
    • Molecular compounds
  • Consist of (positive ions) and anions (negative ions) held together by electrostatic attraction
    • Ionic compound
  • Ionic compound made of monatomic ions and polyatomic ions
