Name ____________________ Date ___________?Mr. Carcich Physics 2D Motion Short Answers 1) Distinguish between rotation and revolution. Using the earth, provide an example of each. 2) Distinguish between rotational and tangential speed. What is their relationship? 3) If you are on the center of a merry-go-round, and you walk toward the outer edge, how does your rotational speed change? Your tangential speed? 4) When you whirl a can at the end of a string in a circular path, what is the direction of the force that acts on the can? 5) Does an object undergoing uniform circular motion accelerate? Why? 6) When a car makes a turn, do seat belts provide you with a centripetal force or centrifugal force?

Name ____________________ Date ______ Mr. Carcich CP Physics Current Electricity & Circuit Review Be sure you understand completely the following concepts. You need to know: Electric Current Define current. What are the units for electrical current? What is conventional current? What is drift velocity? Current- the rate of flow of electrical charges Conventional current- the flow that positive charges would flow (if they did flow), positive to negative Actual current- direction that electrons would flow, negative to positive Drift velocity- average velocity that a particle, such as an electron, attains due to an electric field What is necessary for a current to begin to flow? What must you connect to a circuit?

Chapter 6-Chemistry in Biology COMPOSITION OF MATTER -Matter-everything in universe is composed of matter. -Matter is anything that occupies space or has mass -Mass-quantity of matter in an object -Weight-pull of gravity on us ELEMENTS -Pure substances that cannot be broken down chemically into simpler kinds of matter -More than 100 elements (92 naturally occuring) -90% of the mass of an organism is composed of 4 elements (oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, and nitrogen) -Each element has a unique chemical symbol -Consists of 1-2 letters -First letter is always captialized ATOMS -The simplest particle of an elemetnt that remains all the properties of that element. -Properties of atoms determine the structure and properties of the matter they compose.

History of Science ? ? Illusion ? Delusion - Truth I thought this was Science Course Science is the Truth ?. but but ?.. Science seems to change all the time Hmmmm First Quiz From Fire to Atomism Early Greek Atomic Theory Some thought EVERYTHING was made from water in one of the forms (ice, liquid, gas) Democritus ? atoms differed in only shape and size The concept of the ?nocut? atomos was developed ? SMALLEST BUILDING BLOCK Arostotle ? all matter is composed of four elements ? Earth, air, fire, water The philosopher's stone and the rise of alchemy ?convert cheaper metals into gold finding the?elixir of life ?in the air an "ether" which breathed life into living things Problems with Alchemy

Crystalline Solids Crystal Lattice ? A 3D array of points where each point has an identical environment. Unit Cell ? The repeating unit (a unit cell is to a crystal, like a ?brick? is in a house). In a given crystal all unit cells are identical. CaF2 Unit Cell Large cation & Large anion r(Cation)/r(Anion) ~0.72 Small cation & Large anion r(Cation)/r(Anion) ~0.3 Cation Anion Anions and cations want to stay in contact with each other, but when the cation becomes much smaller than the anion, anion-anion contacts prevent this. The solution is to lower the coordination number Ionic radii and coordination number Radius Ratio Rules r(cation)/r(anion) Coordination Number Coordination Geometry ? 0.73 8 Cube ? 0.41 6 Octahedron ? 0.22 4 Tetrahedron ? 0.15 3 Trigonal Planar

* Chapter 7 Periodic Properties of the Elements John D. Bookstaver St. Charles Community College Cottleville, MO Lecture Presentation Development of Periodic Table Dmitri Mendeleev and Lothar Meyer independently came to the same conclusion about how elements should be grouped. Development of Periodic Table Mendeleev, for instance, predicted the discovery of germanium (which he called eka-silicon) as an element with an atomic weight between that of zinc and arsenic, but with chemical properties similar to those of silicon. Periodic Trends In this chapter, we will rationalize observed trends in Sizes of atoms and ions. Ionization energy. Electron affinity. Effective Nuclear Charge

Gases and the Mole Gay-Lussac formulated the law of combining volumes. Law of Combining Volumes Gases at the same temperature and pressure react with one another in volume ratios of small whole numbers. Law of Combining Volumes Example 1: H2 + Cl2 2HCl 1 L + 1 L 2 L Law of Combining Volumes Example 2: 2H2 + O2 2H2O 2 L + 1 L 2 L Avogadro?s law The volume of a gas, maintained at a constant temperature and pressure, is directly proportional to the number of moles of the gas. Molar Volume the volume that a mole of gas occupies at standard temperature and pressure Molar Volume 1 mole of ANY gas at STP occupies 22.4 L. Sample Problem 1 What volume would 7 moles of carbon dioxide occupy at STP? = 157 L CO2 7 mol CO2 22.4 L 1 mol Change 228 L of O2 at STP to moles. 470 moles 426 moles
