QuestionAnswer
A SUBSTANCE THAT CANNOT BE BROKEN DOWN INTO SIMPLER SUBSTANCES ELEMENT
THE SMALLEST PARTICLE OF MATTER HAVING ALL THAT ELEMENTS CHARACTERISTICS. IT IS MADE UP OF SMALLER PARTICLES ATOM
MADE OF OF PROTONS AND NEUTRONS NUCLEUS
SMALL PARTICLES THAT HAVE MASS AND POSITIVE ELECTRICAL CHARGES PROTONS
PARTICLES THAT HAVE ABOUT THE SAME MASS AS PROTONS BUT THAT ARE ELECTRICALLY NEUTRAL ELECTRONS
SURRONDING THE NUCLEUS OF AN ATOM ARE TINY PARTICLES THAT HAVE LITTLE MASS, BUT NEGATIVE CHARGES THAT ARE THE SAME MAGINITUDE AS THE POSITIVE CHARGES OF PROTONSS NEUTRONS
THE NUMBER OF PROTONS IN AN ATOM'S NUCLEUS ATOMIC NUMBER
WHEN ATOMS OF THE SAME ELEMENT HAVE DIFFERENT MASS NUMBERS THEY ARE ISOTOPES OF THAT ELEMENT
THE SPONTANEOUS PROCESS THROUGH WHICH UNSTABLE NUCLEI EMIT RADIATION RADIOACTIVITY
THE AREA OF THE ATOM WHERE AN ELECTRON IS MOST LIKELY TO BE FOUND ENERGY LEVEL
THE OUTERMOST ELECTRONS OF AN ATOM VALANCE ELECTRONS
THE COMBINED NUMBER OF PROTONS AND NUETRONS MASS NUMBER
THE AVERAGE OF MASS NUMBERS OF ISOTOPES OF AN ELEMENT ATOMIC MASS
HOW MANY ELECTRONS CAN BE HELD IN THE INNERMOST ENERGY LEVEL OF ATOMS? 2
HOW MANY ELECTRONS CAN THE FOURTH ENERGY LEVEL HOLD? 32
MANY ELEMENTS ARE MIXTURES OF THESE... ISOTOPES
THE CHEMICAL BEHAVIOR OF DIFFERENT ELEMENTS IS DETERMINED BY... THE NUMBER OF ELECTRONS IN THE OUTERMOST ENERGY LEVEL
HOW MANY ELECTRONS CAN AN ATOM'S THIRD ENERGY LEVEL HOLD? 18
ELEMENTS WITH A FULL OUTERMOST ENERGY LEVEL ARE UNLIKELY TO COMBINE CHEMICALLY WITH OTHER ELEMENTS
THE IDENTITY OF AN ELEMENT IS DEFINED BY ITS NUMBER OF PROTONS
HOW MANY ELECTRONS CAN AN ATOM'S SECOND ENERGY LEVEL HOLD? 8

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
