Explain the difference between chemical and physical changes.
Chemical changes: Two substances combine to create a new substance with different properties. Physical changes: Two substances are combined and each retains the same properties as the elements that make it up.
100
Define element
Element: a pure substance that is composed of only one type of atom. It cannot be broken down into simpler substances.

What happens when you place an object with a density of 2.5g/cm3 into water that has a density of 1.0g/mL? Explain why your answer would happen.
The object would sink because it has a higher density than the water.

List four physical properties of matter.
physical properties of matter: color, shape, size, state, melting point, freezing point, boiling point, malleability (the ability to bend), density, volume, mass, or solubility (the ability to dissolve)
300

This type of matter is made of two or more different elements that are chemically bonded together, such as water (H₂O)

What is a compound?

300

Write a chemical formula that represents a compound and one that represents an element.

Element: C, H, Cl. Compound:  C6H12O6, H2O, CO2, CH4.

Round 0.0045678 to 3 significant figures.

0.00457

Changes of state of matter are considered which type of change? Explain why.

Changes of state are PHYSICAL changes because the substance still has the same chemical properties, just in a different form. Water is still water (H2O) when it is a liquid, solid (ice), or gas (water vapor).

How is a compound different from a mixture?

Mixtures are physically combined and can be separated, compounds chemically combined and can be separated by chemical means

Jack has a rock. The rock has a mass of 6g and a volume of 3cm3. What is the density of the rock?
D = m/v so the density of the rock equals 6/3. Density = 2 g/cm3.

Why are chemical properties harder to observe than physical properties?
Chemical properties change the substances identity or makeup.
