Atoms are the basic building __ for all three types of matter. | Blocks |
An ___ is made up of one or more of the same kind of atom chemically combined. | Element |
A ___ is made up of different kinds of atoms chemically combine. These have different properties from the elements that make them up. | Compound |
A __ contains a variety of elements and compounds that are not chemically combined with each other. | Mixture |
Elements and compounds are ___ substances, or a substance that has definite physical and chemical properties such as appearance, melting point, and reactivity. | Pure substances |

Most ___ are shiny, conduct heat and electricity well, and can be shaped into thin sheets or wires. | Metals |
Most ___ are not shiny, they do not conduct heat or electricity well. | Nonmetals |
___ have some properties of both metals and nonmetals. | Mettalloids |
Elements are arranged on the ___, which is a useful tool that can help you identify elements that have similar properties. | Periodic Table |
Compounds can be classified into a few basic categories by their properties such as by their __. Compounds can be classified as acidic, basic or neutral. | pH |
Vinegar contains acetic acid, the pH of acids are below ___. | 7 |
Baking soda is an example of a ___compound, and have a pH greater than ___. This type of compounds have a slippery feel and a bitter taste. | basic, 7 |

Organic compounds that are made by living things are called ___. | Biochemicals |
Biochemicals are divided into four categories: | carbohydrates, lipids, proteins and nucleic acids. |
___ are used as a source of energy and include sugars, starches and fiber. | Carbohydrates |
___ are biochemicals that store excess energy int he body and make up cell membranes. This type of biochemicals include fats, oils, and waxes. | Lipids |
___ are one of the most abundant types of compounds in your body. They regulate chemical activities of the body and build and repair body structures. | Proteins |
___ such as DNA and RNA contain genetic information and help the body build proteins. | Nucleic acids |
A ___ is a combination of two or more substances that are combined physically but not chemically. | Mixture |
If two or more materials are put together, they form a ___. Mixing lettuce, tomatoes, and onions together to make a salad is an example of a ___. | Mixture |
Mixtures are not ___ substances. | Pure |
Mixtures do not have definite ___. | Properties |
Mixtures can be ___by physical changes. | Separated |
One way to separate salt from water is to heat the mixture until the water ___. | Evaporates. |
A ___ can separate a mixture of aluminum nails and iron nails. | Magnet |
Mixtures can be classified into two categories. A ___ mixture is one that does not have a uniform composition. Such as a bucket full of soil, dirt, leaves, and rocks. | Heterogeneous |
Mixtures can be classified into two categories. A ___ mixture is one where the substances are evenly spread throughout. Such as sugar and water. | Homogeneous |
___ are heterogeneous mixtures in which the particles of a material are spread throughout a liquid or gas, but are too large to stay mixed without being stirred or shaken. | Suspensions |
In a ___, one substance is dissolved in another substance. Tea is an example of this type of homogeneous. | Solutions |
___ particles are small and do not settle out quickly. They look homogeneous, but we consider them to be heterogeneous. Milk and gelatin are examples of this type of mixture. | Colloids |
