The measure of the coldness or hotness of a material
Pressure
The force applied by the gas particles per unit area
Boyle's Law
The volume of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at constant temperature
Charle's Law
The volume of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature at constant pressure
Kelvin
Unit for absolute temperature
Binary Compounds
Chemical compounds comprising two distinct elements
Binary Acids
Compounds with hydrogen (H) and a nonmetal (NM)
Polyatomic Ion
A covalent bonded set of two or more atoms, or of a metal complex, that can be considered to behave as a single unit and that has a net charge that is not zero
Chemical reaction is a process in which a substance is changed into one or more new substances. It is represented using chemical equation.
Reactant
Starting material, written on the left side of an equation
Product
Substance formed as a result of a chemical reaction, written on the right side of the equation
The Law of Conservation of Mass states that matter can be neither created nor destroyed, hence every chemical reaction must be balanced.
Atoms are made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons.
A molecule is two or more atoms chemically bonded together.
Chemical reactions involve changes in the arrangement of atoms within substances.
An ion is an atom with either too many or too few electrons to have a neutral charge.
Electrolytes are compounds that dissociate into positive and negative ions when they dissolve in water.
