everything around you. Matter is anything made of atoms and molecules. | Matter |
are usually hard, because their molecules have been packed together. | Mass |
The amount of space that a substance or object occupies, or that is enclosed within a container, esp. when great | Volume |
are things you can hold that maintain their shape | Liquid |
Gases are random groups of atoms. | Gas |
Solids are usually hard, because their molecules have been packed together. | Solid |
Physical changes are about energy and states of matter. | physical property |
Chemical changes happen on a molecular level when you have two or more molecules that interact and create a new molecule or two. | chemical property |
-smallest unit of matter | Atom |
number of protons in an atom of a given elemen | atomic number |
number of protons plus the number of neutrons in an atom | atomic mass |
number of protons plus the number of neutrons in an atom | nucleus |
positive subatomic particle in the nucleus | proton |
neutral subatomic particle in the nucleus | neutron |
negative subatomic particle that is around the outside of the nucleus | electron |
ability to be flattened into a sheet; bendable | malleability |
ability to be stretched into a wire | ductility |
ability to react with another substance | reactivity |
horizontal rows on periodic table | period |
vertical columns on periodic table | groups |
temperature where solid turns to liquid | melting point |
temperature where liquid turns to gas | boiling point |
shiny, good conductors, malleable, ductility | metal |
like both metal and non-metal, shiny, malleable, semi-conductors | metalloid |
poor conductors, mostly gases, dull | non-metal |
