neutron
color, smell, taste, texture are examples of
physical property
states of matter
solid, liquid and gas
liquid to solid
freezing
found circling the nucleus of an atom and has a negative charge
electron
two or more substances that are not chemically combined with each other and can be separated by physical means.
mixtures
an apple reacts with air is called
rot
particles are packed tightly together
solid
evaporation/boiling
atomic number of an atom equals to
#of protons or #number of electrons
to differentiate homogenous from heterogeneous scientists ask this question
is it uniform though out?
metal reacts with air and overtime gets less bright; this chemical property is called
tarnished
indefinite shape and definite volume
liquid
gas to solid
deposition
atomic mass (mass number) of an atom equals
neutrons PLUS protons
