These make up the nucleus of an atom.
What are protons and neutrons?
100
These do not have the same number of protons and electrons.
What are ions?
100
Water is this because different regions of its molecules have different charges.

Give the three types of chemical bonds.
What are covalent, ionic and hydrogen bonds?
200
This means that something mixes well with water.

If an atom has 5 neutrons, 6 protons and 7 electrons, its atomic number is this.
What is 6?
300
This type of bond forms between charged atoms.

What is "reason out, working from facts"?
400
This is the best way to minimize bias in a scientific experiment.
What is a double-blind experiment?
400
This is a version of a chemical element containing the same number of protons but different number of neutrons.
What is an isotope?
400
This is the weakest type of chemical bond.
What is a hydrogen bond?
400
Water forms this type of bond within its molecules and this type of bond between its molecules.
What is covalent within and hydrogen between?
500
This is the meaning of the following root word: -lysis
What is "to break apart"?

Where would a valence electron be located in an atom?
What is the valence shell?
500
Atoms share or exchange their electrons because they want to do this.
What is fill their valence shells?
500
This is why water is cohesive.
