made of 2 kinds of particles, protons, and neutrons

Describe the nucleus of an atom.

Qualitative - non-numerical info. Quantitative- numerical info.

Difference between qualitative and quantitative observations.

Atoms in a molecular compound share electrons to achieve stability. Atoms in an ionic compound gain or lose electrons to form ions, which combine so that the number of positive and negative charges is equal.

Differentiate between an ionic compound and a molecular compound.

Copper, Water - reactants (original substance) Copper (II) Oxide, Hydrogen - products (resulting substance)

Distinguish between mass and weight.

Precision - the exactness of a measurement Accuracy - how close a measurement is to the true value of the quantity measured

Distinguish between precision and accuracy.

1s2 2s2 2p2

Electron configuration for nitrogen, atomic number 7.

A homogeneous mixture can be separated by physical means, while a pure substance cannot. For example, salt can be removed from a saltwater mixture by evaporating the water, but to separate water into hydrogen and oxygen requires electrolysis, a chemical means

Explain the difference between a pure substance and a homogeneous mixture. Use an example in your answer.

Because to observe either, a chemical change, burning, must occur.

Explain why flammability and combustibility are chemical properties.

Any substance w/ a definite composition is a chemical; some substances that have definite compositions may be hazardous but most are not. water and oxygen

Explain why it is incorrect to assume that all chemicals are potentially dangerous or hazardous. Give two examples of chemicals that are necessary for human life.

Ar

Find the symbol for the element argon.
