100

temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a solid

What is freezing point?

100

what is an atom?

smallest basic unit of matter

when we mention "particles" we are talking about atoms

100

A measure of the amount of matter present in a given volume of substance. 

Density

200

matter vs mass

mass is the amount of matter in an object

matter is anything that has mass and takes up space

200

A  _______ is a state of matter with a fixed shape and volume.

What is solid?

200

What state of matter is this? and describe the particle relation,

What is solid? Each particle is attached to several others so it cannot move. 

200

what is an molecule?

when two or more atoms bond together or combine

example H2O

200

Define and Give 2 examples of chemical change.

The change from one substance to another. 

wood burning turns to ash and metals turn into rust

300

A characteristic of a substance that can be observed or measured without changing its composition

What is physical property?

300

Density describes the relationship between ____ and ____.

mass and volume

300

Which state of matter is this substance in? describe the particle relation. 

What is liquid? Particles are attached to one another and close but has the ability to slide past each other. 

300

Evaporation is a change from a gas to a liquid

What is false?/ Condensation 

300

How can matter change from a liquid to a solid? What happens to the particles? Give example

Liquid can be cooled into a solid. As the particles cool they be come less active and move closer. 

400

what do you use to observe physical properties of a substance?

your 5 senses (hearing, seeing, touching, tasting, and smelling)

scientific tools

400

What is the definition for Element?

a substance that only contains one type of atom

400

when a liquid's temperature increases to a certain level this begins to occur

boiling point

400

What is a change of state?

500

How is the shape of solid matter different from the shape of liquids and gases?

Definite Shape. Particles form a set pattern.

500

What is the difference between an mixture and a compound?

compounds consist of two or more different types of atoms. chemically bonded together. 

in a mixture substances stay the same and can be separated by physical means. 

500

A change in the physical substance but not the actual substance itself

Physical change 

500

After going through a chemical change the atoms gain mass resulting in a new substance. 

False. The atoms in the original substance rearrange to form a new substance. 

500
