Anything that brings about a change in mass.
Energy
Can hold matter together or break it apart.
Atoms
All matter is made up of these.
Three particles in an atom.
Proton, neutron, electron.
Nucleus
The center of the atom, made up of protons and neutrons.

A subatomic particle with no (neutral) charge.What io
What is the atomic mass unit (AMU) of a a neutron?
1 (equal to a proton)

Subatomic particle with a negative charge.
The mass of how many electrons equals the mass of one proton?
1837
Electrons
The only part of an atom involved in chemical reactions.
Element
A substance made up of only one type of atom.
An element can be broken down into simpler form True or False?
True
What are the six elements that make up 99% of living matter?
SPONCH:
Sulphur
Phosphorus
Oxygen
Nitrogen
Carbon
Hydrogen
How many letters in an element's chemical symbol on the periodic table?
1 or 2 letters.
What does the periodic table tell us about the elements?
State of matter
Chemical symbol
Electron configuration
Atomic mass
Atomic number
Metal, metalloid, or nonmetal
Compund
A substance made up of two or more elements.
Compounds
Have different properties than the elements they are made of.
What is another name for sodium chloride?
Salt
Chemical Bond
The forces that hold and atom together in a compound.
Covalent Bond
A bond that forms when atoms SHARE electrons in their outer energy levels.
Covalent Bonds
Are formed between the atoms of two non metals.
Covalent Molecule
A group of atoms formed by covalent bonds.
Covalent Molecule
Usually consist of atoms combined in a definite ratio.
Examples: H2O, CO, CO2, H2O2, etc.
Ionic Bond
A bond that forms when atoms EXCHANGE electrons from their outer energy levels.
Ions
Atoms that have become positively or negatively charged.
Anion
A negatively charged ion. Usually non metal.
Cation
When an ion loses electrons and becomes positively charged. Usually metals.
Ionic Compounds

Why are ions attracted to each other?
Because they they opposite charges.
Ionic Compound
Is always neutral. Examples Na=Cl = NaCl, Mg2+O2=MgO etc.
Organic Compounds
Compounds that contain carbon and hydrogen,
Associated with living things.
Large, complex molecular compounds.
Four types of organic compounds?
Carbohydrates
Lipids
Proteins
Nucleic Acids
Carbohydrates
Carbon, hydrogen and oxygen.
Lipids
Carbon, hydrogen, and phosphorus.
Proteins
Carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen and sulfur.
Nucleic Acids
Carbon, Oxygen, hydrogen, nitrogen and phosphorus.
Inorganic Compounds
Made from elements other than carbon.
Usually contain fewer atoms.
Some are necessary for life.
Examples: H2O, CO2, O2 etc.
What is a combination in which individual substances retain there properties
mixtures
In which mixture are the components evenly mixed
homogeneous mixture
examples of homogeneous mixtures (you cannot see the individual components)
koolaid
salt and water
a type of micture in which one substance is dissolved into another
solution (salt water)
A type of mixture in which particles may be seen in a beam of light
dust in air
The components of the mixture are not mixed evenly, you can see all the components
hetergeneous mixture
give an example of a hetergeneous mixture
cereal
milk shake
a type of mixture in which a liquid or gas has another substance (example i fleft undisturbed one substance will sink and the other one goes to the top)
suspension
give an example of a suspension
muddy water,
sand in water
italian drsg
a mixture made of of two liquids that do not mix evenly
oil and water
if you change the amount of the components in a mixture will you change what the mixture is
no because it always stays the same
ex muddy water stays the same no mater how much water and dirt
what is the most important inorganic compound to life
scientist believe that life on earth started with this
water
you need water to survive how long could you live without water
3 days
how long could you live without food
3 weeks
what is more important to survive food or water
water
this inorganic compound is unique in that it can be found in all 3 states (gas, liquid and solid)
water
what is the most commen solvent
water
it can dissolve another substance with it
what is less dense when it freezes
water which makes ice float on water
water has a high specific index what can it do
it can absorb alot of energy and hold on to it for a long time
(boiling water)
water is attracted to other things what is this called
adhesion
allows water to move through the blood vessels in our body
capillary action
water is attracted to water
cohesion
cohesion (water attracted to water) at the surface
surface tension
the movement of substances through the cell membrane without the input of energy
passive transport
what are th two kinds of passive transport
osmosis and diffusion
what is diffusion
molecules move from a higher concentration to a lower concentration
what is osmosis
water moves from a higher concentration to a lower concentration
what is it when molecules of a substance continue to move from one area to another until the molecules are equal on both sides
equilibrum
what are the four key factors that affect diffusion
concentration the higher this is the longer it takes
temperature increase in this means things move faster
pressure the higher the pressure the faster particles move
agitation (movement of particles) increase in agitation the faster particles move
what is the passive transport of materials across the plasma membrane that requires the use of transport proteins
facilitated diffusion
what particle is two large to pass through the cell membrane without the assit of transport proteins
glucose
in Osmosis how does water move
in the opposite direction of the particles
why does osmosis occur
because some particles cannnot move through the semipermeable membrane
What is it when energy is required to move a material though a cell membrane
active transport
what is it that moves a substance from a lower concentration to a higher concentration
active transport (it requires energy)
In active trasport what is used to move molecules from a lower concentration to a higher concentration)
