What is a mixture in which the composition is uniform throughout the mixture. Ex. Salt Water

200

What is increasing atomic number?

300

Provide an example of a physical change and a chemical change

What is physical change (tearing paper) and chemical change (burning wood)?

300

Draw the Lewis dot structure for Silicon

What is symbol Si with 4 valence electrons each in a different position?

300

Draw the Bohr model for He

What is 2 valence electrons in the first shell 

300

What is an example of plasma?

What is lightning?

Reminder: Plasma is a superheated matter – so hot that the electrons are ripped away from the atoms forming an ionized gas. It comprises over 99% of the visible universe. 

400

Name the element located in period 5 group 17.

What is Iodine (I)?

400

Define an atom and how its identity is determined

What is the smallest unit into which matter can be divided without the release of electrically charged particles? Identity determined by number of protons

400

Draw the Lewis dot structure for Sulfur

What is symbol S with 6 valence electrons evenly dispersed in each position?

400

Draw the Bohr model for H

What is 1 electron in the first shell?

400

Surprise! (Extra 100 pts) Describe the difference between a mixture and a compound? Provide an example for each!

What is compound are substances which can be formed by chemically combining two or more elements. Mixtures are substances that are formed by physically mixing two or more substances but they still each retain their own properties.

500

Surprise! Daily Double: list the four states of matter and an example for each?
