| What is a mixture | A mix of two or more substances that are not chemically combined.They are "physically " mixed together AND you can easily separate them. |
| What is a atom | The smallest unit of an element that keeps the properties of that element |

| Which subatomic particles have a positive charge | Proton |
| Which subatomic particle has a negative charge | Electron |
| What subatomic particle has no charge | Neutrons |
| Where are electrons found in a atom | Outside the nucleus in energy levels (shells) |
| Describe a element | Consists of only one type of atom |
| How are elements arranged on the periodic table | By atomic number |
| What is the vertical column on the periodic table called | Group |

| Solid | A substance with a defined shape and volume |
| Liquid | A substance that has a definite volume but not a definite shape |
| Gas | A substance that has neither a definite shape nor volume |
| Freezing | A change in state that occurs when the temperature of particles decreased energy and a liquid turns into a solid |
| Melting | A change in state that occurss when particles speed up and change from a solid to a liquid |
| Boiling | A rapid change in state that occurs throughout a substance changing it from a liquid to a gas |
| Evaporation | A change in state that occurs as a particle from the surface of a liquid , liquid to gas |
| Sublimation | A change in state directly from a solid to the gas |
| Condensation | The reverse of evaporation when a substance changes from a gas to a liquid state |
| Deposition | The change in state directly from a gas to a solid state |
