3.1.1 Identify that matter is made of particles that are continuously moving and interacting The particle theory states that all matter is made up of tiny particles and they are constantly moving/continual state of motion. 1.1.2 Identify the difference between elements‚ compounds and mixtures in terms of particle theory Elements are simplest form substance meaning cannot be decomposed further physically or chemically. They are made up of same type of atoms only e.g. helium‚ oxygen. Compounds

Solubility as a Property of Matter A Lab of Chemicals‚ Chromatography‚ and Crime! Chemistry is a natural science that deals with the composition of matter and the changes it undergoes. At crime scenes‚ investigators often find unknown materials that need to be identified. If an unknown material is a mixture‚ an investigator may want to know one or two things about it: What are the ingredients of the mixture? Is the mixture found at the scene the same as a known mixture? A mixture is a collection

pros and cons of weathering steel:: "Weathering" means that due to their chemical compositions‚ these steels exhibit increased resistance to atmospheric corrosion compared to unalloyed steels. This is because the steel forms a protective layer on its surface under the influence of the weather. The corrosion-retarding effect of the protective layer is produced by the particular distribution and concentration of alloying elements in it. The layer protecting the surface develops and regenerates

World War 1 each side was always desperately looking the next way to get ahead.The first deadly chemicals were found in 1914 used by the Germans. These horrific gases had deadly side effects from extreme blistering‚ to intense coughing fits. Theses gases were as effective as a weapon could get‚ but are they humane? People died brutally immense pain because of these gasses. At the end of World War I chemical weapons had changed the face of the war and raise the death count by thousands. In August 1914

Finding the Ratio of Moles of Reactants in a Chemical Reaction Purpose: The goal of the lab is to determine the mole ratio of two reactants in a chemical reaction (AgNO3 and K2CrO4). However‚ the formulas for the products are unknown. Introduction: When determining the molar ratio of a chemical equation‚ usually the formulas of the reactants and the products are known. With that information‚ it is particularly easy to determine the ratio. However‚ since the products and the formulas for
