---|---|---|---|---|---|
atoms | smallest piece of matter that retains the properties of the element
🗑
|
||||
nucleus | very small, very dense center of the atom with a positive charge, contains protons and nuetrons
🗑
|
||||
proton | subatomic particle found in the nucleus, has a positive charge
🗑
|
||||
neutron | subatomic particle found in the nucleus, has no electrical charge (neutral)
🗑
|
||||
electron | subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus, has a negative charge
🗑
|
||||
quark | subatomic particle that makes up protons and neutrons
🗑
|
||||
atomic number | number of protons in the nucleus
🗑
|
||||
atomic mass | the average mass of an atom of an element and all its isotopes
🗑
|
||||
periods | (Rows) horizontal rows of elements- first element a very reactive solid, last element a very non-reactive gas
🗑
|
||||
families | (Columns) columns of elements who share similar characteristics
🗑
|
||||
luster | shininess, high melting point
🗑
|
||||
malleable | can be pounded into sheets- good conductors
🗑
|
||||
ductile | can be made into wires
🗑
|
||||
solid | particles vibrate in place packed tightly together
🗑
|
||||
liquid | particles are spaced apart more than solids; move moderately fast and flow around each other
🗑
|
||||
gas | particles move very fast and expand to fit the container
🗑
|
||||
plasma | state in which matter is heated to extermely high temperature and the electrons separate from atoms
🗑
|
||||
phase change | when a substance changes from one phase of matter to another due to gain or loss of heat energy
🗑
|
||||
conservation of matter | matter cannot be destroyed, it can only change forms
🗑
|
||||
physical property | any characteristic of a material such as a size or shape that you can observe without changing the identity of a material
🗑
|
||||
matter | solids, liquids, gases, or plasmas
🗑
|
||||
mass | measure of the amount of matter in an object; always constant
🗑
|
||||
weight | gravitational force on an object; changes depending on the amount of gravity
🗑
|
||||
density | the amount of mass in a certain volume; mass/volume
🗑
|
||||
melting | when a solid changes phase to a liquid due to the addition of heat energy; happens a the melting point
🗑
|
||||
freezing | when liquid changes to a solid due to a loss of heat energy; happens a the freezing point
🗑
|
||||
vaporization | when a liquid changes to a gas due to the additon of heat energy; happens at the boiling point
🗑
|
||||
sublimation | when a solid changes phases to a gas without becoming a liquid due to the addtion of heat energy
🗑
|
||||
condensation | when a gas changes to a liquid due to a loss of heat energy
🗑

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
To hide a column, click on the column name.
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
