The smallest unit of matter that cannot be broken down into smaller particles by chemical means.
What is an atom?
Defined as anything that has mass and takes up space.
What is matter?
Substances produced by chemically combining reactants.
What are products?
What is energy?
The movement of charged particles, usually electrons, through a conductor substance.
What is electric current?
The names of the 3 types of subatomic particles
What are protons, neutrons, and electrons?
The amount of matter an object contains.
This is an example of:
What is a chemical formula?
States that energy can neither be created nor destroyed, it can only change in form.
What is the law of conservation of energy?
Electricity can be used to produce this type of field, allowing an ordinary piece of metal to act like a magnet.
What is a magnetic field?
These are created when atoms of the same or different elements are held together with chemical bonds.
What are molecules?
The force that determines the weight of an object.
What is gravity?
This type of chemical reaction absorbs energy.
What is Endothermic?
The concept that relates to a change in speed -- either speeding up or slowing down.
What is acceleration?
A substance such as silicon, which is part conductor and part resistor allowing a flow of low-voltage electricity.
What is a semi-conductor?
The physical combination of two or more substances that keep their own properties.
What is a mixture?
Color, texture, melting, and boiling points are examples of this.
What is properties of matter?
When cooking, this is the type of energy is used to light the gas thus starting a chemical reaction.
What is activation energy?
This concept explains why is takes more energy to stop a large truck than a small car.
What is momentum?
A complete pathway for the flow of electric current.
What is a circuit?
In this type of chemical bond, atoms gain or lose electrons and become ions.
What is an ionic bond?
The substance in which a solute is dissolved.
A substance found in batteries and in the stomach, which is strong enough to breaks down other substances. It can be very useful, but can sometimes cause damage. It can be found in more dilute forms in sour-tasting foods like lemons.
What is an acid?
Newton's first law, which states that objects in motion tend to stay in motion and objects at rest tend to stay at rest.
What is the law of inertia?
A device that can either increase or decrease the voltage of an electric current for effective transmission.
What is a transformer?
