Atom-Element-Mixture
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| atom | smallest particle- "indivisible" |
| proton | positively charged particle with 1 amu in nucleus |
| neutron | no-charge particle with 1 amu in nucleus |
| electron | negatively charged particle with small mass found in energy levels around nucleus |
| atomic number | the number of protons in an atom |
| atomic mass | the total mass of an atom (protons and neutrons) |
| element | a pure substance that cannot be separated into a simpler substanct |
| mixture | 2 or more substance physically combined-- no chemical bond was formed |
| compound | 2 or more substance combined to form a new substance -- chemically bonded |
| heterogenous | a mixture that looks "different" |
| homogenous | a mixture that looks "the same" |
| solution | homogenous mixture where the particles are uniform |
| colloid | a homogenous mixture where the particles are uniform, but, larger (blood, milk, mayo) |
| suspension | a heterogenous mixture where you can see the particles through-out the mixture |
