Define: Element

a pure substance that cannot be broken down into a simpler substance - SMALLEST UNIT OF MATTER

Define: COMPOUND

a pure substance that is made of more than atom or element

Define: ATOM

smallest unit of matter

Define: MOLECULE

two or more elements combined; can be an element (H2, N2, O2) or a compound (CO2, H20)

True or False: a MOLECULE can be EITHER an ELEMENT or a COMPOUND

true

Define: PURE SUBSTANCE

made of ONLY ONE THING.


i.e - Pure Element, Pure Molecule, Pure Compound

Define: MASS

the amount of matter in an object

Define: VOLUME

the amount of SPACE an object takes

Define: DENSITY

the amount of matter in a GIVEN SPACE

Define: INDEPENDENT VARIABLE

the part of the experiment that you MEASURE

Define: INDEPENDENT VARIABLE

the ONE thing in an experiment that is CHANGED or MANIPULATED

What is the formula to calculate DENSITY?

Density = Mass / Volume (D = M/V)

If Density = Mass divided by Volume (D=M/V), then how do you calculate volume?

Volume (V) = Mass (M) / Density (D)

True or False: ATOMS are the SMALLEST PARTICLE of a substance?

True

How many elements are found on the periodic table?

?

True or False:Elements are smaller than Atoms?

False! Atoms are the smallest particle of a substance

How many naturally occurring elements are there?

92

The current version of the periodic table is by: Mendeleev or Mendelsohn?

Mendeleev

What year was the current version of the period table created?

1869

True or False:Elements do not have unique physical and chemical properties

False! Elements DO have unique physical and chemical properties

Can elements be made in the laboratory?

yes

Does "A" represent the Atomic Number or the Atomic Mass?

Atomic Number

What does "B" represent in the image?

Element Symbol

True or False: Atomic Mass is represented by "D" in this image.

True

What is the chemical symbol for Oxygen?

O

True or False: a chemical symbol can only be one letter

False. A chemical symbol can be one letter or two.

True or False: if the chemical symbol has two letters, the FIRST LETTER IS ALWAYS CAPITALIZED and the second letter is always lowercase

True!

True or False: Atoms can be the same element or different element

True

True or False: TWO OR MORE atoms combined are a MOLECULE

True

What is the difference between an ELEMENT molecule and a COMPOUND molecule?

An ELEMENT Molecule is made up of 2 or more of the same element (O2)



A COMPOUND Molecule is made of of 2 or more of TWO OR MORE DIFFERENT elements (H2O)

PRO-TIP! One capital letter = element



Two or more capital letters = compound

Boom!

Is H2SO4 an ELEMENT or a COMPOUND?

Compound!

Is "Fe" an element or a compound?

element!

"CH4 + O2" -- Identify how many compounds, elements, and atoms of each element are in the equation

Compounds: 1 (CH4)


Elements: 3 (C, H, and O)


Atoms of each Element:


1 atom of C


4 atoms of H


2 atoms of O

True or False: Some element names come from Latin or Greek

True
