Chapter 2 Science, Systems, Matter, and Energy Chapter Overview Questions What is science, and what do scientists do? What are major components and behaviors of complex systems? What are the basic forms of matter, and what makes matter useful as a resource? What types of changes can matter undergo and what scientific law governs matter? Chapter Overview Questions (cont?d) What are the major forms of energy, and what makes energy useful as a resource? What are two scientific laws governing changes of energy from one form to another? How are the scientific laws governing changes of matter and energy from one form to another related to resource use, environmental degradation and sustainability? Updates Online

Redox and Electrochemistry Water solutions of certain substances conduct an electric current ?These substances are lectrolytes It is a sustance that dissolves in water to form a solution that will conduct an electric current If it does not coduct at all?Nonelectrolytes The reason that substances vary in their ability to conduct is related to number of ions in solution Ionic lattice substances?Sodium chloride?Dissociated by water molecules so that the individual positive and negative ions are dispresed throughout the solution Covalent bond?Degree of polarity determines the extent to which it will be ionized Water molecules help waken and finally break the polar covalent bonds Ionization? When ions are formed Dissociation?Ionic lattice comes apart

CHAPTER 6 REVIEW NAME_________________________________________ 1) Can work be done on a system if there is no motion? A) Yes, if an outside force is provided. B) Yes, since motion is only relative. C) No, since a system which is not moving has no energy. D) No, because of the way work is defined. Answer: D Diff: 1 Type: BI Var: 1 Page Ref: Sec. 6.1 3) If you push twice as hard against a stationary brick wall, the amount of work you do A) doubles. B) is cut in half. C) remains constant but non-zero. D) remains constant at zero. Answer: D Diff: 1 Type: BI Var: 1 Page Ref: Sec. 6.1

Physics-p3 1.1 X-Rays Part of the electromagnetic spectrum; they have a high frequency and short wavelength. X-rays are used to form images of bone on photographic film to check for fractures and dental fractures. This is done because they are transmitted by healthy tissue and absorbed by bone. X-rays affect photographic film in the same way as light. Charge-coupled devices (CCDs) are used to form electronic images of the body. X-rays are used to make images and CT scans (cross sections through the body). They are also used to destroy tumors at or near the body surface. Precautions must be taken when using X-rays as they cause ionization and can damage living tissue. Workers should wear film badges (to monitor exposure) and use lead screens to shield them when possible.

Chem 110 Chapter 5 Test Review States of Matter: Gases, Liquids and Solids Changes in State Changes in state are considered physical changes. Other physical properties may also change during a change in state. 4 States of Matter are: Gases, Liquids, Solids Comparison of Physical Properties of Gases, Liquids, and Solids Property Gas Liquid Solid Volume and Shape Expands to fill the volume of its container and takes the shape of its container. Has a fixed volume at a given mass and temperature. Volume depends on its mass and temperature. It assumes the shape of its container. Has a fixed volume which is dependent on its mass and temperature. It has a definite shape. Density Compressibility Particle Motion Low High Virtually free High Very low

SCIENCE, MATTER, ENERGY, AND SYSTEMS p.28-49 Core Case Study ? Carrying Out a Controlled Scientific Experiment o controlled experiment- a way in which scientists learn about how nature works is to conduct a controlled experiment o variables- factors that can change within a system or situation being studied o single-variable analysis- an experiment designed to isolate and study the effects of one variable at a time o experimental group- a chosen variable is changed in a known way o control group- the chosen variable is not changed 2-1 What Is Science p.29-35 ? Science Is a Search for Order in Nature o science- an endeavor to discover how nature works and to use that knowledge to make predictions

Chapter 2 Atoms, Molecules, and Ions John D. Bookstaver St. Charles Community College St. Peters, MO ? 2006, Prentice Hall, Inc. Chemistry, The Central Science, 10th edition Theodore L. Brown; H. Eugene LeMay, Jr.; and Bruce E. Bursten Atomic Theory of Matter The theory that atoms are the fundamental building blocks of matter reemerged in the early 19th century, championed by John Dalton. Dalton?s Postulates Each element is composed of extremely small particles called atoms. Dalton?s Postulates All atoms of a given element are identical to one another in mass and other properties, but the atoms of one element are different from the atoms of all other elements. Dalton?s Postulates
