Scientific Method/Graphing/Measurement
A set of steps to organize an investigation
Scientific Method
The smallest piece of matter that still has the properties of that element
atom
Anything that has mass and takes up space
Matter
Mixtures that have the same composition, color, density, and taste throughout
Solutions/Homogeneous Mixtures
A change from a liquid to a gaseous state
Vaporization
A prediction of the outcome of an experiment based on what you already know
Hypothesis
Protons, Neutrons, and Electrons
The amount of mass in a given volume
Density
The substance in a solution doing the dissolving
Solvent
The energy an object has due to its motion
Kinetic Energy
The type of graph used to show how data changes over time or how two variables are related
Line Graph
How the periodic table is organized
In order of increasing atomic number
A change in matter in which one substance changes to another
Chemical Change
Total starting mass of all reactants equals the total final mass of all products
Law of Conservation of Mass
Energy carried by light
Radiant Energy
The base unit in the SI system of measurement that is used to measure mass
gram
The atomic mass is composed of these two types of subatomic particles
Protons and Neutrons
A type of matter with a fixed composition that cannot be separated by physical means
Substance
When balancing a chemical equation you used this to indicate the number of units of each substance in a reaction
Coefficient
A measure of the average value of the kinetic energy of the molecules in random motion
Temperature
The prefix in measurement used to mean 0.01x the base unit
centi-
This is how you find the number of neutrons in an atom
Mass Number - Atomic Number
Bases break apart in water to form this type of ion
Hydroxide (OH-)
The numbers which represent the number of atoms in a molecule of a particular element
Subscript
The transfer of thermal energy in a fluid by the movement of warmer and cooler fluid from place to place
Convection
