| Exothermic | Chemical Reaction that gives off heat energy. |
| Law of Conservation of Mass | In a chemical change, matter is neither created nor destroyed. |
| Mass | The measure of the amount of matter an object contains. |
| Matter | Anything that takes up space and has mass. |
| Compound | A chemical combination of two or more different elements joined together in a fixed proportion. |
| Mixture | A combination of two or more substances in which the basic identity of each substance is not changed. |
