What is the definition of chemistry?
the branch of science that deals with the identification of the substances of which matter is composed
34
what is the definition of physiology?
the branch of biology that deals with the normal functions of living organisms and their parts
35
what is the definition of matter?
Matter is anything that takes up space and can be weighed
36
What is mass?
a coherent, typically large body of matter with no definite shape
37
what is the atomic theory?
All materials are composed of matter.
38
What is atomic structure?
the composition of an atom, which consists of a tiny, positively charged nucleus at the center surrounded by negatively charged electrons orbiting in shells around it
39
what is an element?
A substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical means
40
what are the elements of life?
The elements of life are primarily considered to be carbon (C), hydrogen (H), oxygen (O), and nitrogen (N) with sulfur (S) and phosphorus (P) (SPONCH collectively)
41
What is a subatomic particle?
a particle that is smaller than an atom and is a fundamental unit of matter or energy
42
what does atomic terminology refer to?
it refers to the vocabulary used to describe the structure and components of an atom
43
what is the definition of a compound?
a substance made up of two or more different elements that are chemically joined together in a fixed ratio
44
what is the definition of bonding?
refers to the attractive force between atoms that allows them to stick together and form molecules
