---|---|
A group of atoms with the same number of protons | Element |
When two or more elements combine | Compound |
When two or more compounds combine they form | Mixture |
The two types of mixtures are | Homegeneous and heterogeneous |
The prefix “homo” means | Same |
The prefix “hetero” means | Different |
The compounds in homogeneous mixtures are | Evenly distributed |
Solids have a definite | Volume and shape |
If atoms are packed tightly together and vibrating in place, the substance is a | Solid |
Liquids have a definite volume, but take on the shape of the | Container |
11. If atoms are close together, but slowly moving past each other, the substance is a | Liquid |
What substance has no definite shape or volume? | Gas |
If atoms are far apart, and bouncing around rapidly, the substance is a | Gas |
Atoms are made of | Protons, neutrons, electrons |
Positive charged particles in the nucleus | Protons |
Particles with no charge in the nucleus | Neutrons |
Negatively charged particles outside the nucleus | Electrons |
Protons and neutrons make up the | Nucleus |
The three main states of matter are | Solid. liquid, gas |
Elements are organized according to their atomic number on the | Periodic table |
