Matter
This state of matter has a definite shape and volume (does not change based on the container)
What is solid?
The smallest particle of an element that still has all the properties of that element.
What is an atom?
Nonmetals tend to react with this kind of element by forming ionic bonds.
What are metals?
This is the rate of change in the speed of an object. It happens when an object speeds up (or slows down).
What is acceleration?
This type of energy is transferred by vibrations through air (you can hear it).
What is sound energy?
This state of matter has no definite shape or volume.
What is gas?
What is an electron?
What is 8? (or 2)
This measures the rate of motion and direction of an object, it is calculated by dividing distance by time (answer is NOT speed).
What is velocity?
This type of energy is "stored energy." A basketball in midair and a compressed spring have this.
What is potential energy?
This state of matter has a definite volume, but not a definite shape.
This is the center of an atom that contains protons and neutrons.
What is the nucleus?
The outer, highest energy electrons are called this.
What is valence electrons?
What are balanced forces?
This is the energy of motion.
What is kinetic energy?
This is something that is a combination of two or more different substances that are physically combined (salad, salt water)
What is a mixture?
Hydrogen, the first element on the periodic table, has this many protons
What is 1?
Nonmetals form covalent bonds with this type of element.
The name of the force that resists motion between objects is this.
What is friction?
This type of energy causes the temperature of an object to change.
What is heat or thermal energy?
This is something that is a combination of two or more different substances that are chemically combined (salt, sugar, water)
What is a compound?
Isotopes are versions of elements that differ in the number of this subatomic particle.
What are neutrons?
These elements do not usually form bonds with other elements.
What are noble gases?
Every action has an equal and opposite reaction is this Newton's Law (1, 2, or 3)
What is Newton's 3rd Law?
