States of Matter
state of matter in which particles can slip past one another and take the shape of their container. However, the particles cannot pull apart and spread out to take the volume of their container
What is Liquid State?
This mixture has the same composition throughout.
What is a homogeneous mixture?
These properties are properties that can be measured or observed only when matter undergoes a change to become an entirely different kind of matter
What are chemical properties?
These are horizontal rows on the periodic table and indicate the number of shells the atoms of that row have
What are Periods?
A combination of two or more substances that are not chemically combined
What is a mixture?
The state where particles of matter are tightly packed together. This holds the particles rigidly in place and gives solids a fixed shape and fixed volume
What is Solid state?
this mixture varies in its composition
What is a heterogeneous mixture?
the ability of matter to burn
What is Flammability?
These are the vertical columns on the periodic table that have same number of valence electrons and similar chemical properties
What are Groups or Families?
are the subatomic particles that do not possess any charge neutrons
What are Neutrons?
State of matter in which particles of matter can pull apart from each other and spread out. As a result,it does not have a fixed shape or a fixed volume.
What is Gas state?
The particles of this mixture are too small to see and also too small to settle or be filtered out of the mixture.
What is a solution?
the ability of matter to react chemically with other substances
What is Reactivity?
An element is defined by the number this subatomic particles in its nucleus
A substance formed chemically by a fixed ratio of elements
What is a compound?
This is is required to cause changes in matter
What is Energy?
The particles of this mixture are large enough to see but not large enough to settle or be filtered out of the mixture.
What is a colloid?
Properties that can be measured or observed without matter changing to an entirely different substance
These electrons are the electrons in the outer energy level of an atom that can participate in interactions with other atoms
What are Valence Electrons?
The smallest particle of a compound that still has the compound’s properties
What is a Molecule?
A minute portion of matter
What is a particle?
The particles of this mixture are large enough to see and also to settle or be filtered out of the mixture.
What is a suspension?
Property of matter that causes Rust occurs when iron reacts to exposure to water and oxygen
What is oxidation?
In Bohr’s model, fixed distances from the nucleus where electrons exist around the nucleus
What are Energy levels?
the smallest object that retains the properties of an element
What is an Atom?
