A substance made up of only one type of matter. Gold, silver and oxygen are examples.
element
Two or more types of matter that are mixed together; each keeping its own chemical properties.
mixture
A tool used to separate things by size.
filter
The change of a liquid to gas.
evaporation
A substance made when two or more elements are joined; each losing its own properties.
compound
How are elements named?
1. Latin words
2. Greek words
3. scientists
4. place where elements are discovered.
How does a compound differ from a mixture?
The elements of a mixture keeps its properties when mixed but compounds do not keep its properties. The mixture can be separated by physical properties but the compound is separated by chemical means.
Why are alloys used to make certain products?
A mixture of alloys or 2 or more metals makes a product more flexible but strong like jewelry or pots or steel.
Can an element be broken down into simpler materials?
No, because the properites of a large or a small piece of element are the same.
