States of Matter and Chemical Reactions

This page covers the characteristics of solids, liquids, and gases in science, as well as chemical and physical reactions.

States of Matter

The guide explains the properties of solids, liquids, and gases:

Solids:

  • Have a fixed shape
  • Cannot be squashed
  • Examples: brick, stone, wood

Liquids:

  • Flow but maintain contact
  • Examples: water, juice, washing-up liquid
  • Melting point: 0 degrees Celsius
  • Boiling point: 100 degrees Celsius

Gases:

  • Flow easily
  • Examples: oxygen, nitrogen, helium

Chemical and Physical Reactions

The page distinguishes between chemical and physical reactions:

Chemical reactions:

  • Cannot be reversed
  • Signs include temperature change, bubbles/fizzing, color change, and solid formation

Example: A burning candle is a chemical reaction that cannot be reversed.

Physical reactions:

  • Can be reversed
  • Example: Ice melting and refreezing

Chemical Equations

The guide introduces word equations and provides an example:

Example: Magnesium + hydrochloric acid → magnesium chloride + hydrogen

Forces

The page briefly touches on balanced and unbalanced forces:

  • Balanced forces: Equal and opposite forces e.g.,2N2N=0Ne.g., 2N - 2N = 0N
  • Unbalanced forces: Unequal forces resulting in movement e.g.,2N+3N=5Ne.g., 2N + 3N = 5N

Energy and Equations

This page covers various types of energy, important equations, and the advantages and disadvantages of energy sources.

Types of Energy

The guide lists different forms of energy:

  • Kinetic
  • Thermal
  • Chemical
  • Gravitational Potential Energy GPEGPE
  • Sound
  • Elastic
  • Nuclear
  • Light
  • Electrostatic
  • Magnetic

Highlight: Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred from one form to another.

Important Equations

The page introduces key equations for physics calculations:

  1. Speed = Distance ÷ Time Example: 100m in 10s = 10m/s
  2. Density = Mass ÷ Volume Vocabulary: Density is measured in kg/m³

Advantages and Disadvantages of Energy Sources

The guide compares different energy sources:

Coal:

  • Advantages: Very cheap, easily found worldwide, reliable
  • Disadvantages: Non-renewable, produces CO2, bad for the environment

Oil:

  • Disadvantages: Non-renewable fossilfuelfossil fuel, potential for oil leaks

Wind:

  • Advantages: Renewable, no fuel costs, no gas emissions
  • Disadvantages: Loud, requires space, unreliable dependsonweatherdepends on weather

Definition: Renewable energy - Energy from sources that are naturally replenished and do not run out.

This comprehensive guide provides students with essential information for their end-of-year revision, covering key topics in biology, chemistry, and physics. The differences between plant and animal cells revision section offers a clear comparison of cell structures, while the energy section explores the advantages and disadvantages of energy sources. The guide also includes important equations and explanations of characteristics of solids, liquids, and gases in science, making it a valuable resource for young students preparing for their exams.

Energy and Equations

The final section covers various types of energy, important equations, and energy sources. It emphasizes the conservation of energy principle and practical applications.

Definition: Speed equals distance divided by time Speed=Distance/TimeSpeed = Distance/Time.

Highlight: Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred between different forms.

Example: Coal is cheap and readily available but produces CO2 and is non-renewable.

Cell Structures and Reproduction

This page covers the fundamental differences between plant and animal cells, as well as specialized cells and reproduction.

Plant and Animal Cell Structures

The page begins by illustrating the key components of plant and animal cells, highlighting their similarities and differences.

Highlight: Both plant and animal cells contain a nucleus, cytoplasm, cell membrane, and mitochondria.

Plant cells have additional structures not found in animal cells:

  1. Cell wall: Provides shape and support
  2. Large vacuole: Stores water and maintains cell hydration
  3. Chloroplasts: Enable photosynthesis

Vocabulary: Cytoplasm - The gel-like substance inside cells where chemical reactions occur.

Specialized Cells

The guide introduces specialized cells and their functions:

  1. Sperm cell: Adapted for fertilizing an egg with its tail for swimming
  2. Red blood cell: Carries oxygen around the body, lacks a nucleus
  3. Root hair cell: Absorbs water from soil, lacks chloroplasts

Reproduction

The page outlines the male and female reproductive systems:

Female reproductive organs:

  • Vagina: Receives sperm
  • Uterus: Where the baby grows
  • Oviduct: Carries egg to uterus
  • Ovary: Produces eggs

Male reproductive organs:

  • Scrotum: Holds testes
  • Testes: Produce sperm
  • Sperm duct: Carries sperm to penis
  • Glands: Add liquid to sperm
  • Urethra: Carries sperm out of body

Definition: Fertilization - The process where an egg and sperm cell join together.

This app is really great. There are so many study notes and help [...]. My problem subject is French, for example, and the app has so many options for help. Thanks to this app, I have improved my French. I would recommend it to anyone.

Samantha Klich

Android user

Wow, I am really amazed. I just tried the app because I've seen it advertised many times and was absolutely stunned. This app is THE HELP you want for school and above all, it offers so many things, such as workouts and fact sheets, which have been VERY helpful to me personally.

This app has made me feel so much more confident in my exam prep, not only through boosting my own self confidence through the features that allow you to connect with others and feel less alone, but also through the way the app itself is centred around making you feel better. It is easy to navigate, fun to use, and helpful to anyone struggling in absolutely any way.

I know a lot of apps use fake accounts to boost their reviews but this app deserves it all. Originally I was getting 4 in my English exams and this time I got a grade 7. I didn’t even know about this app three days until the exam and it has helped A LOT. Please actually trust me and use it as I’m sure you too will see developments.
