1

What is a pure substance?

an element or compound that melts/boils at specific temperatures

New cards
2

What is relative formula mass?

relative atomic masses added together

New cards
3

What is empirical formula?

the simplest ratio of the numbers

New cards
4

What is a formulation?

something (a mixture) which has been created to be a useful product eg. medicines

New cards
5

What is filtration?

filtering a solution to leave you with a precipitate

New cards
6

What is crystallisation?

separating a salt from a solution by evaporating the water

New cards
7

What is simple distillation?

separating a pure liquid from a solution by heating the mixture at the specific boiling points

New cards
8

What is fractional distillation?

normally done with oil by heating the mixture at different mixtures and condensing the vapour produced

New cards
9

What is chromatography?

separates mixtures and uses mobile and stationary phases

New cards
10

What is paper chromatography?

the mobile phase is the solvent and the stationary phase is the paper

New cards
11

What is TLC (thin layer chromatography)?

the mobile phase is the solvent and the stationary phase is an inert substance on a non-reactive surface

New cards
12

what is the Rf value?

distance moved by substance ÷ distance moved by solvent

New cards
13

What is gas chromatography?

the stationary phase is the liquid and the mobile phase is the inert gas carrier

New cards
14

What is a metal?

a reactive element that creates positive ions

New cards
15

What is a non-metal?

a reactive element that creates negative ions

New cards
16

How is the periodic tables organised?

in order of atomic number and elements in the same group have the same amount of electrons

New cards
17

What is the chemical bonds in ionic compounds?

when a metal and non-metal bonds and is connected with high forces and giant ionic lattices

New cards
18

What is the chemical bonds in simple molecules?

when molecules are covalently bonded by sharing electrons are normally gases or liquids

New cards
19

What is the chemical bonds in giant covalent structures?

solids with high melting points

New cards
20

What is the chemical bonds in polymers?

are connected by string covalent bonds and intermolecular forces so is solid at room temperature

New cards
21

What is the chemical bonds in metals?

giant structures and shared delocalised electrons with high melting and boiling points

New cards
22

What is a covalent bond?

electrostatic attractions between shared electrons

New cards
23

What is an ionic bond?

electrostatic attractions between charged ions

New cards
24

What is metallic bond?

electrostatic attractions between positive metal ions and delocalised electrons

New cards
25

What do dot and cross diagrams represent?

forming of ionic compounds but cannot represent the 3D arrangements

New cards
26

What is the arrangements of electrons in shells?

2,8,8

New cards
27

What was Mendeleev’s arrangment?

in order of atomic mass but left some missing for undiscovered elements

New cards
28

What is the structure of diamond?

each carbon is then connected covalently to four other carbon

New cards
29

What is the structure of graphite?

graphite is soft as each carbon is bonded to three other carbon atoms and they are in layers which can slide

New cards
30

What is the structure of fullerene?

made up of rings of five to seven carbon atoms

New cards
31

What is the structure of graphene?

one layer of graphite

New cards
32

What is energy transfer?

to - boiling,melting

from - freezing,condensing

New cards
33

What is the relative strength of chemical bonds?

both covalent and ionic bonds are extremely strong

New cards
34

What is intermolecular forces?

are weak so have low melting and boiling points

New cards
35

How big are nano-particles?

1x10-7 m

New cards
36

What are the features of nano-particles?

high surface are to volume ratio

New cards
37

What are the risks of using nano-particles?

there are unkown dangers of how our cells react
