200
The reason a spoon inside a pot of soup while it is cooking on the stove gets hot.
What is thermal conductivity?
200
The particles in this state are able to slide past each other, but they are still close together. This state has definite volume but not a definite shape.
What is a liquid?
200
These are the electrons in the outer level of an atom. They are responsible for how reactive an atom is.
What is valence electrons?
200

What is the neutron?
300
The sand at the beach gets hotter quicker than the water because sand has a ____________.
What is a lower specific heat?
300
The particles in this state are very far apart. This state has no definite shape or volume.
What is a gas?
300
This is column 18 of the periodic table and it contains atoms that are not reactive. This is because they have a full outer level of electrons. They do not have space for anymore so they do not react with any other atoms to get more
What are the noble gases?
300
An element is a pure substance that is made up of how many types of atoms.
What is one type?
400
A diagram that is used to draw the number of electrons that orbits the nucleus. The first level holds 2 electrons, the second holds 8 electrons, etc.
What is a Bohr's Diagram?
400
Boiling water is an example of this type of change.
What is a physical change?
400
