Homogeneous Mixture a mixture in which substances are evenly distributed throughout the mixture
Substance a single kind of matter that is pure, meaning it always has a specific makeup- or composition- and a specific set of properties
Mixture Made of two or more substances- elements, compounds, or both- that are together in the same place but not chemically combined
molecules groups of two or more atoms held together by chemical bonds
Chemical Property a characteristic of a pure substance that describes its ability to change into different substances
Chemical bond A force of attraction between two atoms
Heterogeneous Mixture a mixture in which pure substances are unevenly distributed throughout the mixture
Chemical Formula Shows the elements in the compound and the ratio of atoms
Atom the basic particle from which all elements are made
Element a pure substance that cannot be broken down into any other substances by chemical and physical means
Chemistry the study of the properties of matter and how matter changes
Solution an example of a homogeneous mixture; forms when substances dissolve
Matter anything that has mass or takes up space
Physical Property a characteristic of a pure substance that can be observed without changing into another substance
