Question
Answer
Matter   is anything that has mass and takes up space.  
🗑
Chemistry   is the study of the properties of matter and how matter changes.  
🗑
Substance   is a single kind of matter that is pure, meaning it always has a specific makeup—or composition—and a specific set of properties.  
🗑
Physical Property   is a characteristic of a pure substance that can be observed without changing it into another substance.  
🗑
Chemical Property   is a characteristic of a pure substance that describes its ability to change into different substances.  
🗑
Element   is a pure substance that cannot be broken down into any other substances by chemical or physical means.  
🗑
Atom   is the basic particle from which all elements are made.  
🗑
Chemical Bond   is a force of attraction between two atoms.  
🗑
Molecules   atoms combine to form larger particles  
🗑
Compound   is a pure substance made of two or more elements chemically combined in a set ratio.  
🗑
Chemical Formula   shows the elements in the compound and the ratio of atoms.  
🗑
Mixture   is made of two or more substances—elements, compounds, or both—that are together in the same place but are not chemically combined.  
🗑
Homogenous Mixture   so evenly mixed that you can’t see the different parts  
🗑
Heterogenous Mixture   you can see the different parts  
🗑
Solution   is an example of a homogeneous mixture.  
🗑
Weight   is a measure of the force of gravity on you  
🗑
Mass   of an object is the measurement of the amount of matter in the object.  
🗑
International System of Units   To measure the properties of matter, scientists use a system called  
🗑
Volume   The amount of space that matter occupies  
🗑
Density   relates the mass of a material in a given volume.  
🗑
Physical Change   is any change that alters the form or appearance of matter but does not make any substance in the matter into a different substance.  
🗑
Chemical Change   change in matter that produces one or more new substances  
🗑
Law of Conservation of Mass   The fact that matter is not created or destroyed in any chemical or physical change  
🗑
Energy   is the ability to do work or cause change.  
🗑
Tempurature   is a measure of the average energy of random motion of particles of matter.  
🗑
Thermal Energy   is the total energy of all of the particles in an object.  
🗑
Endothermic Change   a change in which energy is taken in.  
🗑
Exothermic Change   releases energy  
🗑
Kinetic Energy   the energy of matter in motion  
🗑
Potential Energy   is the energy an object has because of its position  
🗑
Chemical Energy   The internal energy stored in the chemical bonds between atoms is a form of potential energy  
🗑
Electromagnetic Energy   a form of energy that travels through space as waves  
🗑
Electrical Energy   is the energy of electrically charged particles moving from one place to another  
🗑
Electrodes   In electrolysis two metal strips called_________ are placed in a solution but do not touch.  
🗑
