The difference between a pure substance and mixture is that a pure substance has a fixed composition, while a mixtures may vary. Also a mixture may be seperated through physical means, while you might have to go through chemical reactions to seperate a compound.
What is the difference between mixture and pure substances? Give examples for each.

Potential energy is usually energy in stored form, not in use yet. Kinetic energy is energy in motion.
What is the difference between potential and kinetic energy? Provide an example.

Law of Conservation of mass
What does this demonstrate? CH4+2O2 ----> CO2+2H2O

Atomic masses vary because of the different isotopes of an element. Each Isotope has a varying amount of neutrons. The weighted average of all the isotopes is the atomic mass.
Why are atomic masses not whole numbers?
300
the conversion of an atom of one element to another element
What is transmutation?
300
Different versions of an element with varying amounts of neutrons
What are isotopes?
400
solids- definite shape definite volume liquids- indefinite shape, definite volume gases- indefinite shape, indefinite volume.
Characterize between solids liquids and gases

A chemical reaction does not change the elements, while transmutation does.
What the difference between a chemical reaction and transmutation?

This experiment demonstrated Rutherford's theory of the structure of the atom. Alpha particles were aimed at a gold foil. Most passed through, while some bounced back at the source. Gave support for nucleus.
What is the Gold Foil Experiment?
