measurement of how packed or crowded the object is, ratio of mass to volume |
particles, shape, volume, compressibility, energy/disorder of a solid |
very close, definite, definite, no, liw |
particles, shape, volume, compressibility, energy/disorder of a liquid |
close, indefinite, definite, no, medium |

physical |
altering a substance without changing its compocition |
physical change |
one or more substances change into a new substance |
chemical change |
6 piece of evidence that indicate a chemical change |
gas bubbles, solid precipitate, color change, odar, heat, light |
p or c, conducting electricity |
physical |
law of conservation of mass |
matter cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction |
the smallest unit of matter that retains the identity of the substance |
atom |
center of the atom that contains the mass of the atom |
nucleus |
positively charged subatomic particles, mass=1 amu |
protons |
neutrally charged subatomic particles, mass=1 amu |
neutrons |
region that surrounds the nucleus that contains most of the space in the atom |
e cloud |
negatively charged subatomic particles |
electrons |
atomic number= |
number of protons= number of electrons |
average mass of all isotopes |
atomic mass |
mass number – atomic number |
number of neutrons |
what causes heated elements to emit color |
dropping to a lower level |
contributions of thompson, rutherford, and bohr to atomic history |
T- plum pudding, R-gold foil, discovered nucleus, B- electrons orbit in rings |
fusion |
process of combining lighter atoms to form heavier ones |
explain how and why both positive and negative ions are formed |
positive- cations are formed by loosing electrons to achieve 8 in valence shell; negative- anions are formed by gaining electrons to achieve 8 in valaence shell |
