  • is anything that occupy space and has mass.
    matter
  • All matter is made of ___
    atoms
  • ____ are the basic building blocks of matter.
    atoms
  • Three subatomic particles make up every atom:
    protons, neutrons, electrons
  • The word atom came from the Greek word ____ which
    means "indivisible"
    atomos
  • ___ are positive, have a mass roughly the same as a
    neutron, found in the nucleus, define an element
    protons
  • ___ have no charge, have a mass roughly the same
    as a proton, found in the nucleus, are responsible for
    isotopes
    neutrons
  • The___ ___r is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom.
    atomic number
  • ___ are negative, very small mass, smallest
    subatomic particle, found outside of the nucleus, are
    responsible for ions.
    electrons
  • How to get the mass number of an element?
    protons + neutrons
  • To find neutrons:
    mass number - protons
  • What is the mass number of an element with 10 protons and 10 neutrons?
    20
  • What is the mass number of an element with 36 protons and 48 neutrons?
    84
  • are atoms of the same element with a different number of neutrons.
    ISOTOPES
  • The number of protons for an atom __ changes.
    never
  • The number of neutrons ___ change
    can
  • ___ are atoms of the same element with a different number of neutrons.

    isotopes
  • is anything that occupies space and has mass.
    matter
  • Matter may either be __ or ___.
    living or non-living
  • STATES OF MATTER
    solid, liquid, gas
  • Matter is made of tiny particles called ___ or molecules that are in constant motion and are held together by attractive forces
    atom
  • These particles are arranged depending on their ____
    states/phase.
  • The speed of these particles is dependent on the _____ they contain.
    amount of energy or heat
  • Particles of ___ are tightly packed and move around very little.
    solid
  • ___ has weaker attractive forces that allow particles to flow around each other.
    liquid
  • ___ have particles with the highest amount of energy. This energy allows the particles to move fast and have great spaces between them.
    gases
  • ___ is the fourth state of matter. It is often seen in ionized gases in which many of the electrons wander around freely among the nuclei of the atoms.
    plasma
  • ___ is the fifth state of matter, created when particles, called bosons, are cooled to near absolute zero.
    Bose-Einstein condensate
  • Bose-Einstein condensate is the fifth state of matter, created when particles, called ____, are cooled to near absolute zero.

    bosons
  • Properties are the distinguished ___ that you use to identify different samples of matter.
    characteristics
  • • Matter has two main kinds of properties:
    physical and chemical
  • ___ ___ are the characteristics that can be observed without changing the substance into another substance.
    Physical properties
  • ___ ___ can be observed by changing the identity of a substance or when the substance reacts with another substance and undergo change in its composition.
    Chemical property
  • There are two types of changes that matter may undergo through
    physical and chemical
  • ___ __are changes in the physical properties of matter.
    Physical changes
  • Physical Changes Matter Undergo:
    melting, freezing, evaporation, condensation, sublimation, deposition
  • is the physical change of a solid to a liquid by the addition of heat
    melting
  • is the change of state in which a liquid becomes solid as heat is removed
    freezing
  • is the change of substance from liquid to gas by adding heat
    evaporation
  • is the change of state from gas to liquid by removing heat
    condensation
