Periodic Table of Elements
100

This is the building block of matter; the smallest possible particle of an element. 

Atom 

100

This is a bond formed when atoms share electrons 

Covalent Bond 

100

The movement of particles from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. 

Diffusion 

100

This macromolecule provides long lasting energy for the body

Lipids

100

A substance that provides an alternate route from reactant to products that doesn't require as much energy to jumpstart. Speeds up the reaction time.

Catalyst

100

This is energy in motion

Kinetic energy 

100

Period 

200

A pure substance made of only one kind of atom

Element 

200

This is the bond formed when Atoms transfer or give away electrons to another atom

Ionic Bond

200

This biological catalyst will lower activation energy required for some chemical reactions

Enzyme 

200

This molecule provides quick energy for the body

Carbohydrates

200

Liquid molecules that like to stick to together

Cohesion 

200

This is energy is carried through sound waves 

Acoustic 

200

Group

300

Anything that has space and takes up mass 

Matter 

300

An ionic bond forms between these types of elements

Metal and Non-metal 

300

A chemical reaction results in heat exiting the system to its surrounds. This exit of heat is called

Exothermic

300

This is created when amino acids form in the body

Proteins 

300

In dissolved solutions, this is the substance that does the dissolving. 

Solvent 

300

This reaction is caused by the entering of heat into a system. 

Endothermic

300

Lithium(L) has how many valence electrons?

1

400

The random movement of particles caused by collisions with surrounding molecules 

Brownian Motion

400

A covalent bond forms between these two types of elements 

Two Non metals

400

An egg being cooked in a pan is exhibiting a physical and/or chemical change

Both Chemical and Physical Change

400

This macromolecule is formed from non polar hydrocarbon chains 

Lipids

400

Liquid molecules that like to stick to other surrounding molecules 

Adhesion

400

This energy is stored due to position, condition, or structure

Potential Energy

400

Bromine(Br) has how many valence electrons?

7

500

Molecules that contain carbon compounds covalently bonded to other elements

Organic compounds

500

This molecule has unequal SHARING of electrons 

Polar molecule (Polarity)

500

This graph represents this kind of reaction

Exothermic

500

This is what the four major classes of macromolecules are called that form the foundation of life
