|
|
|
Atom
|
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.
|
|
|
Destiny
|
A measurement 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

|
|
|
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.
|
|
|
Electrons

|
|
|
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 what ever volume is available.
|
|
|
Physical Property
|
Characteristics that you can see through direct observation that includes color texture, density,odor,luster,and state(solid,liquid,or gas).
|
|
|
Chemical Property
|
Properties that can only be observed when one substance changes into a different substance.
|
|
|
Physical Change
|
A change from one state (solid or liquid or gas) to another without a change in chemical composition.
|
|
|
Chemical Change
|
Result in the formation of one or more new substances;a change that cannot be reversed.
