Elements
An element is a substance that consists of only one type of atom and cannot be chemically broken down.
What is an element?
The three common states of matter.
What is liquid, solid, and gas?
Typically measured in Hertz(Hz)
What is frequency?
This is a type of bonding were electrons are shared.
What is covalent?
Used to express an object's potential and kinetic energy.
What is Joules (J)?
The smallest unit on an element, consisting of a nucleus surrounded by electrons.
What is the atom?
This process is called sublimation.
What is when a solid turns into a gas without becoming a liquid?
The maximum displacement of a point on a wave from its rest position is known as this.
What is amplitude
The particles that make up an ionic compound.
What is ions?
Four specific forms of kinetic energy.
What is thermal, electrical, sound, and light?
Elements in the periodic table are organized based on increasing atomic number and grouped by similar chemical properties.
What is how elements are organized on the periodic table?
This process is called condensation.
What is when gas turns back into a liquid?
This type of wave requires a medium to travel, such as water or air.
What is a mechanical wave?
This atom gives electrons to another they form this type of bond.
What is ionic?
Energy produced by a flow of electrons through a conductor.
What is electrical energy?
This is the number of known elements in the periodic table, with the first 92 occurring naturally on Earth.
What is how many known elements are there in the periodic table?
This process is called evaporation
What is when liquid turns into a gas?
This term describes the bending of a wave around obstacles or the spreading out of waves after passing through an opening.
What is diffraction?
The forces that hold atoms together in a compound called.
What is chemical bonds?
Energy that is stored within the bonds of chemical compounds.
What is chemical energy?
The difference between a compound and a element.
What is a compound is made up of different elements.
This is a state of matter that goes farther then gas.
What is plasma?
The distance between two corresponding points on a wave, such as two wave crests, is known as this.
What is wavelength?
Covalently bonded molecules are neutral.
(t/f) What is true?
Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed from one form to another.
What is the law of conservation of energy?
