Question
Answer
Chemistry   the study of matter  
🗑
atom   the fundamental unit of all mater; composed of protons, neutrons, and electrons  
🗑
protons   one of the three fundamental particles that make atoms. It has an atomic mass of 1 and carries a positive charge  
🗑
neutrons   one of the three fundamental particles that make up atoms. It has an atomic mass of 1 and carries no charge  
🗑
electrons   one of the three fundamental particles that make up atoms; has almost no mass compared to protrons and neutrons, and it carries a negative charge; electrons form the bonds between atoms in molecules  
🗑
nucleus   the central portion of an atom that houses the protons and neutrons  
🗑
electron cloud   the space that surrounds the nucleus of an atom and houses the electrons  
🗑
helium   the second element in the periodic table. It has two protons, two neutrons, and two electrons. one of the noble gases.  
🗑
elements   one of more than 100 fundamental units that make up matter  
🗑
periodic table of elements   a chart categorizing all of the chemical elements  
🗑
atomic number   the number of protons in an atom's nucleus; in the periodic table it appears in the upper left-hand corner near the atomic symbol for the element  
🗑
atomic weight   the combined weight of an atom's protons and neutrons; in the periodic table, it is found below the symbol for the element  
🗑
carbon   the 6th element on the periodic table with 6 protons, 6 neutrons, and 6 electrons; has the symbol C  
🗑
Oxygen   the 8th element in the periodic table; has the symbol O and has 8 protons, 8 electrons, and 8 neutrons  
🗑
hydrogen   the 1st element in the periodic table with the symbol H; It has only 1 proton, 1 electron, no neutrons  
🗑
sodium   11th element on the periodic table w/ the symbol NA. It has 11 protons, 11electrons, 12 neutrons. Sodium is alkali metal and combines with chlorine to make sodium chloride (table salt)  
🗑
alkali metals   the group of elements in the far left-hand column of the periodic table  
🗑
noble gases   the group of elements on the far right-hand side of the periodic table. These elements do no react easily with other elements.  
🗑
uranium   element #92 in the periodic table w/ the chemical symbol U. uranium has 92 protons, 92 electrons, and 146 neutrons  
🗑
gold   #79 on the periodic table of elements w/ the symbol AU. Gold has 79 protons, 79 electrons,& 118 neutrons  
🗑
Lead   #82 on the periodic table of elements w/ the symbol Pb; has 82 protons, 82 electrons, 125 neutrons  
🗑
