Matter
|
we classify
matter in three categories solids liquids and gases all objects in the universe are made up of matter |
|
Physical Properites
|
These are Properties of matter which we can observe without changing the composition of an element. examples density color hardness freezing and boiling point
|
|
Chemical properties
|
These are the properties that describe how an element interacts with others at the molecular level to produce different kinds of matter
|
|
Atoms
|
all elements in the periodic table are made up of atoms. Atoms are the smallest unit of the element.
|
|
Subatomic particle
|
parts atoms are made of there three kinds of subatomic particles protons neutrons and electrons
|
|
electrons
|
carry a negative electrical charge and move around in the electron cloud.
|
|
protons
|
protons form closely together with neutrons to forn tge necules protons carry a positive charge
|
|
neutrons
|
neutrons are found in the necules along with protons netrons carry no electrical charge so they are neutral
|
|
nucleus
|
found in the center of an atom and consists of protons and neutrons
|
|
electron cloud
|
area in which electrons move around the nucleas . The electrons have a negative charge
|
|
Atomic number
|
this number is equal to the number of protons in an atom number is also shown on the top of the perodic table
|
|
mass number
|
equal to the sum of protons and neutrons and is shown on the bottom of perodic table
