Matter is anything that has _______________ and takes up __________________.
Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space.
How many electrons are needed for a neutral Hg atom?
80 because the atomic number of Hg is 80. This means that there are 80 protons (+), so we need 80 electrons (-) to cancel out the positive charge and make it neutral.
Where are the following subatomic particles located in an atom: protons, neutrons, electrons.
protons and neutrons are in the nucleus
electrons are in orbitals
How many sig figs are in the following number: 0.0390?

What is the difference between a homogenous mixture and heterogenous mixture?
homogenous mixture is uniform throughout meaning it is a mix of things but looks like one thing (ex. hot chocolate)
heterogenous mixture is not uniform meaning you can see 2 or more things mixed in (ex. salad)
What does "n" represent?
energy level
they are small and indivisible
A beaker is used to measure liquid.
False, a graduated cylinder is used to measure liquid. A beak is used to hold liquid.
How can we calculate the number of neutrons?
mass number - atomic mass
can also be seen as: atomic mass (avg mass# of all isotopes) - atomic number
Why is it hard to track electrons?
They are too small and have a very small mass.
Electrons are in set circular orbits.
