Parts of an Atom
States of Matter
Phase Changes
100

The part of the atom that is located on the outside of the nucleus, has a negative charge, and is responsible for reactivity (chemical reactions).

What is an electron?

100

The state of matter when atoms are closely packed and touching one another while vibrating.

What is the definition of a Solid?

100

Where is the nucleus of an atom located?

In the center of the atom.

100

Atoms or particles are packed tightly, close to one another, and vibrating.

Describe the particle motion of a solid.


100

According to the diagram, how many phase changes are there?


Six

200

The part of an atom that is located in the nucleus, has a positive charge, and is responsible for determining the type of element of the atom.

What is the definition of a proton?


200

What is the definition of a Liquid? 

The state of matter in which its atoms are closely packed and touching, but the atoms can move around each other and flow. 

200

What is found in the nucleus of an atom?

Protons and Neutrons

200

Describe the particle motion of a liquid.

Atoms or Particles are closely packed and touching one another, but can flow freely around each other. 

200

What happens to the energy in the Melting phase change?

Energy increases turning matter from solid into a liquid.
300

What is the definition of charge?

The property of matter to attract or repel. 

300

What is the definition of a Gas?

The state of matter in which its atoms are separate from each other by empty space. 
300

What part of the atom is responsible for reactivity (chemical reactions)? 

The electrons

300

Describe the particle motion of a gas.

Atoms or particles are spread apart, not touching, and move with high energy to fill the container they are in.

300

What happens to the energy in the Vaporization phase change?

Energy increases, changing the matter from a liquid into a gas. 

400

What is the smallest unit of matter?

An atom.

400

When matter changes from one state (solid, liquid, gas) to another because of a change in energy.

What is the definition of a Phase Change?

400

What subatomic particle does NOT have a charge?

What is a Neutron

400

"There is no pattern in the arrangement of particles of water."

What is a gas state 

400

Energy decreases and matter will change from a liquid to a solid.


What is the Freezing phase

500

Matter is measured by mass and volume, but energy is not. 

What is the difference between Energy and Matter?

500

A unique particle of matter that is a fundamental building block of matter. Examples can come from the periodic table.

What is the definition of an Element and give three examples of an element?

500

How many protons are found in the center of this atom? 

Two protons

500

"The water has no definite shape." Which state of matter? 

A liquid.
