• Chemistry is called the central science and is the study of matter which is necessary to understand other sciences.
• Satyendra Nath Boze discovered Bose-Einstein Condensate
• Matter is anything that occupies space and has mass.
• Five states of matter: solid, liquid, gas, plasma, Bose-Einstein condensate
• Plasma is the most common form of matter in the universe. It's 99% of all visible matter.
• Photolysis is the breaking down of H2O
• Heterogenous mixture has more than one phase that can be separated physically.
• Homogenous mixture-only one phase.
• Physical separation includes filtering, evaporating, distilling, decanting, sieving, and the use of magnet.
• chemical separation includes heating
• Solution or homogenous mixture has two parts: solute and solvent
• Solute which gest disolved
• Solvent which does the dissolving
• Water is the universal solvent
• Substances have the same properties throughout and have definite and unchanging composition.
• All elements and compounds are substances.
• Elements are made op of only one type of atom that cannot be further separated.
• There are 118 known elements.
