Answer: Chemistry
Anything that occupies space and has
mass.
Answer: Matter
Composed of particles that are tightly
packed and have a regular
arrangement.
Answer: Solid
Solids are divided into two:
Answer: Liquid
Gas
It is the actual escape of molecules from the surface of
the liquid to form a vapor in the surrounding space
above the liquid.
Answer: Evaporation
The vapor molecules coalesce to form the
liquid, and the attractive forces between
molecules increase in the formation of
liquid.
Answer: Condensation
It is the temperature at which the vapor
pressure of the liquid is equal to the
external pressure acting upon the surface
of the liquid.
Answer: Distillation
The property of the liquid that tends to
draw the surface molecules into the body
of the liquid and hence to reduce the
surface to a minimum.
Answer: Viscosity
Heat that must be supplied to convert a solid to
a liquid at constant temperature.
Answer: Sublimation
CLASSIFICATION OF MATTER:
a. It is any variety of matter that is homogeneous and
with constant composition by mass.
Element
Are pure substances that contain two or
more elements chemically combined in a
definite proportion by mass. These can be
classified into bases, acids, and salts.
Answer : Compounds
b. It is composed of two or more
distinct substances, which can be
separated by physical means.
Answer: Mixture
A solution that has a uniform
composition throughout.
atom element
ATOMIC BONDING
1. It has a low electronegativity, give up their
valence electron to form a sea of electrons
surrounding the atoms.
Covalent bond
3. when more than one type of atom is
present in a material, one atom may
donate its valence electrons to a different
atom, filling the outer energy shell of the
second atom.
Ionic bond
Join molecules or groups of atoms by weak
electrostatic attraction. Many plastics,
ceramics, water, and other molecules are
permanently polarized some portion of
the molecules are positively charged, while
other portions are negatively charged.
Interatomic spacing
occurs when the total energy of the
pair of atoms is at a minimum or when
no net force is acting to either attract
or repulse the atoms.
Equilibrium separation
THE SUB ATOMIC PARTICLES:
17 17 18
17 17 20
Atoms of different atomic numbers but of the
same mass number are called ____
Answer: Isobars
A molecule is the smallest identifiable
sample of a substance.
Monoatomic molecules contain one atom
Diatomic molecules contain two atoms
Triatomic molecules contain three atoms
Polyatomic molecules describes any
molecules that contain more than one
atom.
IONS
An Ion is an atom of molecule, which has
lost or gained one or more electrons,
making it positively or negatively charged.
A positively charged ion is called cation.
A negatively charged ion is called anion.
A monoatomic ion is an ion consisting of
a single atom.
A radical ion is an ion that contains an
odd number of electrons and are mostly
very reactive and unstable,
A dianion is an ion which has two
negatively charges on it.
A polyatomic ion is an electrically
charged particles that consists of two or
more atoms linked together in much the
same way as in neutral molecule.

DALTONS LAW OF PARTIAL
PRESSURES
The partial pressure of a component
of a gas mixture is the pressure which the
component
would exert if it alone occupied the entire
volume.
According to Daltons law, the total pressure
of a gaseous mixture is equal to the sum of
the partial pressures of the components.
