  • List 4 non-metals.
    oxygen, nitrogen, hydrogen, carbon, helium, phosphorous, sulfur, chlorine,...
  • There are 4 cups of water with temperature of 20°C, 60°C, 80°C and 95°C. Which water in which the particles move fastest? Why?
    95°C (highest), because of highest energy
  • The interaction between particles in an ice cube is weaker than that in water. True or False
    False. It is stronger.
  • Why is Gold used for various types of jewellery?
    Because it is shiny and malleable
  • List 4 properties of non-metals.
    dull, brittle, do not conduct electricity, do not conduct heat well
  • A solution with a higher concentration (concentrated) has (more/less) solute particles compared to a solution with a lower concentration.
    more
  • Which solution is the most concentrated in the 4 solutions? Explain your answer.
    Z, because solution Z has the largest amount of solute.
  • Why is steel used to build house and bridge, not pure iron?
    Because alloy is stronger and harder than pure metal.
  • Peter adds 40mL of milk into 50mL of water to make solution X. What are the solute, solvent and solution in this case?
    initial milk = solute, water = solvent, diluted milk = solution
  • Describe the diagram of water cycle (name the terms and describe them).
    evaporation, condensation, precipitation, collection
  • Bronze, an alloy of copper and zinc, is used to make strong, durable coins. T or F?
    F: bronze (copper and tin)
  • When heating a solid, do the particles move faster to form a liquid or move move less and get closer together to form a liquid?
    The particles move faster to form a liquid.
  • True of False: Metals like gold, silver, iron and copper are commonly used in electrical wiring.
    F
  • List 5 properties of metals.
    Sonorous, ductile, malleable, shiny, conduct heat and electricity
  • Solution X has 5g of sugar and 85g of water to produce 100g solution X. How can we prepare a higher concentration solution than solution X?
  • List 5 metals.
    mercury, iron, gold, silver, aluminium, copper, zinc, tin, ...
  • Why is alloy stronger and harder than pure metal?
    Because particles has a regular pattern so the particles are easy to slide, but they cannot do that in alloy because there are different types of atoms in alloy
  • A solution with a lower concentration (diluted) has (more/less) solute particles compared to a solution with a lower concentration.
    less
  • Peter adds 2g of brown sugar to 50mL of water to make solution X. Then, he adds 10g of brown sugar into the solution X to get solution Y. Which solution is more concentrated? Why? How does it look like?
    Y. Solution Y is darker. Because solution Y has more water particles (more solute) than solution X.
  • Both iron and oxygen are ductile. True of False?
    False
