Cards in this deck (37)
- 1Acida chemical substance that neutralizes alkalis, dissolves some metals, and turns litmus red; typically, a corrosive or sour-tasting liquid of this kind.
- 2AcidicIn chemistry, something that's acidic has a low pH, as opposed to a base, which has a higher pH.
- 3AntioxidantA substance that inhibits oxidation, especially one used to counteract the deterioration of stored food products.
- 4AtomThe basic unit of a chemical element.
- 5Atomic nucleusThe atomic nucleus is the small, dense region consisting of protons and neutrons at the center of an atom
- 6Atomic Numberthe number of protons in the nucleus of an atom, which determines the chemical properties of an element and its place in the periodic table.
- 7Basethe lowest part or edge of something, especially the part on which it rests or is supported.
- 8Basicforming an essential foundation or starting point; fundamental.
- 9Bufferany of various devices or pieces of material for reducing shock or damage due to contact.
- 10Chemical bondA chemical bond is a lasting attraction between atoms, ions or molecules that enables the formation of chemical compounds.
- 11Cohesiónthe sticking together of particles of the same substance.
- 12Covalent BondA covalent bond is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms.
- 13DissolveBecome or cause to become incorporated into a liquid so as to form a solution.
- 14ElectronA stable subatomic particle with a charge of negative electricity, found in all atoms and acting as the primary carrier of electricity in solids.
- 15Electrón ShellAn orbit followed by electrons around an atom's nucleus.
- 16Elementa pure substance consisting only of atoms that all have the same numbers of protons in their atomic nuclei.
- 17Free Radicalan atom, molecule, or ion that has an unpaired valence electron.
- 18Heat of vaporizationIs the amount of energy that must be added to a liquid substance to transform a quantity of that substance into a gas.
- 19Hydrogen BondA hydrogen bond is a primarily electrostatic force of attraction between a hydrogen atom to a more electronegative atom
- 20HydrophilicHaving a tendency to mix with, dissolve in, or be wetted by water.
- 21hydrophobiccompounds do not dissolve easily in water, and are usually non-polar.
- 22Hydrophobic InteractionDescribes the relations between water and hydrophobes
- 23Ionany atom or group of atoms that bears one or more positive or negative electrical charges.
- 24Ionic Bondtype of linkage formed from the electrostatic attraction between oppositely charged ions in a chemical compound.
- 25Isotopeeach of two or more forms of the same element that contain equal numbers of protons but different numbers of neutrons in their nuclei
- 26mass numberthe total number of protons and neutrons in a nucleus.
- 27moleculea group of two or more atoms that form the smallest identifiable unit
- 28Neutronan uncharged elementary particle
- 29nonpolar covalent bondA covalent bond that has an equal sharing of electrons
- 30PH scalemeasures how acidic or basic a substance is.
- 31Polar covalent bondA bond between 2 nonmetal atoms that have different electronegativities and therefore have unequal sharing of the bonding electron pair.
- 32protonstable subatomic particle that has a positive charge equal in magnitude to a unit of electron charge
- 33radioactiveemitting or relating to the emission of ionizing radiation or particles.
- 34SolutionA liquid mixture in which the minor component (the solute) is uniformly distributed within the major component
- 35SolventAble to dissolve other substances.
- 36Specific heatt
The heat required to raise the temperature of the unit mass of a given substance by a given amount
- 37Surface tensionthe tension of the surface film of a liquid caused by the attraction of the particles in the surface layer by the bulk of the liquid, which tends to minimize surface area.
