ELEMENT |
Element:basic building block of matter cannot be broken down to a simpler substances,consists of atoms of only one type. |
|
|
ATOMS |
the smallest particle of an element that has the chemical properties of that element.These are the building blocks of matter. |
|
|
MASS |
the amount of matter in a substance you can measure mass using a balance this is not to be confused with weight |
|
|
DENSITY |
a measurment of how solid something is specifically it is the mass per unit volume of a substance(d=m/v) |
|
|
VOLUME |
the amount of space an object takes up. |
|
|
MATTER |
Anything that has mass and takes up space(has volume). |
|
|
NUCLEUS |
The center of the atom that contains both protons and neutrons. |
|
|
PROTONS |
The positively charged particles of an atom,found in the nucleus . |
|
|
NEUTRONS |
The small particle of an atom that carries a neutral charge found in the nucleus. |
|
|
PERIODIC TABLE |
A chart that contains all the known elements arranged by the atoms number. |
|
|
SOLID |
The state of which matter maintains a fixed volume and shape. |
|
|
LIQUID |
The state in which matter maintains a fixed volume but adapts to the shape of its container. |
|
|
GAS |
The state in which matter expands to occupy whatever volume is available. |
|
|
