A pure substance made of only one kind of atom is this.

What is an element?

Horizontal rows in the periodic table have this name.

What are periods?

2,000,000 in scientific notation.

What is 2 x 10^6?

200

Water in its gaseous state is called this because water is normally liquid at room temperature.

What is a vapor?

200

Antacids for heartburn is this type of substance.

What is alkaline?

200

Two or more different elements chemically joined in a fixed ratio form this.

What is a compound?

200

Vertical columns in the periodic table have this name.

What are groups?

300

This property is calculated by dividing mass by volume.

What is density?

300

This state contains charged particles produced when a gas becomes ionized.

What is plasma?

What is a proton (hydrogen ion, H+)?

300

Oil-and-vinegar dressing with separate layers is this type of mixture.

What is heterogeneous?

300

Mendeleev left empty spaces in his table for this reason.

What is allowing for elements that had not yet been discovered?

400

Two objects have equal mass, but object A occupies half the volume of object B. This describes A’s density compared with B’s.

What is twice the density?

400

A solid changing directly to a gas undergoes this process.

What is sublimation?
