| Pure Substance | substance whose properties are the same throughout |
| Mixture | combination of two or more pure substances |
| Homogeneous mixture | mixture whose composition is the same throughout the sample |
| Heterogeneous mixture | mixture whose composition is different in different parts of the sample |
| Law of Mass Conservation | In any chemical or physical process, the total mass of everything involved must remain the same |
| Element | substance that cannot be chemically broken down into simpler substances |
| Compound | pure substance that is composed of two or more elements |
| Law of Definite Proportions | given compound will always have the same proportion of elements by mass |
| Molecule | combination of two or more atoms joined together |
| Law of Multiple Proportions | When two elements combine to form different compounds, a fixed amount of one element will combine with the other element so that the ratio of the masses of the other element is a small whole number |
| Isotopes | Two or more atoms of the same element that have different numbers of neutrons substance whose properties are the same throughout |
