| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Alloy | A solid solution where two metals are dissolved into each other.Ex: Iron & Carbon makes steel. |
| Amalgam | A metal is dissolved into mercury (solution). |
| Aqueous | A solute is dissolved into water. |
| Atom | The smallest part of an element that still retains the properties of that element. |
| Compound | Two or more elements bonded to each other, decomposable into elements. |
| Element | Matter that cannot be decomposed into simpler forms of matter. |
| Molecular Compound | A compound formed by two non-metals bonded together. |
| Ionic Compound | A compound formed by a metal and a non-metal bonded together. |
| Homogeneous mixtures | Matter that is evenly distributed throughout a volume. ex: Aqueous solutions, tinctures, alloys, etc. |
| Heterogeneous mixtures | Matter that is unevenly distributed throughout a volume. Ex: muddy water, italian salad dressing, soil |
| Ion | A charged particle formed when an atom gains or loses electrons. |
| Matter | That which exists with mass and volume. |
| Metal | An element which loses electrons when forming chemical bonds. |
| Metalloid | An element that exhibits properties of both metals and nonmetals. |
| Mixture | Different types of matter mixted together yet not chemically bonded. |
| Non-metal | An element that gains electrons from metals or shares electrons from other non-metals when forming chemical bonds. |
| Solution | A homogeneous mixture consisting of a solute dissolved into a solvent. |
| Tincture | A solution where a solute is dissolved into alcohol. |
