| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| The smallest component of an element having the same chemical properties of the element consisting of a nucleus containing combinations of protons, neutrons, and one or more electrons. | Atom |
| Being a substance in a physical state in which it resists changes in size and shape. A substance having a definite shape and volume. | Solid |
| The state in which a substance exhibits a characteristic readiness to flow; fluid matter having no fixed shape but a fixed volume. | Liquid |
| The phase of matter where the particles expand freely to fill their container | Gas |
| Is solids, liquids and/or gases in any form, from which everything physical is made. It is a substance that occupies space and has mass. | Matter |
| An electrically neutral, highly ionized gas composed of ions, electrons, and neutral particles. | Plasma |
| A small, negatively charged particle that is located outside of an elements nucleus with a very small mass but a negative charge that has the same strength as a protons positive charge | Electron |
| The area outside of the nucleus of an atom where the electrons of an atom are located. | Electron Cloud |
| A substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances by physical or chemical means. | Element |
| A tiny particle that is located in the nucleus of an atom, has about the same mass as a proton, and has no electrical charge. | Neutron |
| A tiny particle that is located in the nucleus of an atom, has mass, and a positive charge. | Proton |
| Two or more atoms held together by covalent bonds, having no overall electrical charge. | Molecule |
| The number of protons in an atom’s nucleus. | Atomic Number |
| The sum of the protons and neutrons in an elements nucleus. | Atomic Mass |
| The rows on the periodic table that are ordered in recurring trends. | Elemental Period |
| The columns of the periodic table, these families have similar chemical and physical properties and also react similarly. | Elemental Family |
| The dense region in the center of an atom that consists of protons and neutrons. | Atomic Nuclei |
