What is matter?
Matter is anything that has a mass and occupies space.
What is an element?
An element is the simplest substance known and provides the building block from which all matter is composed.
What is a compound?
A compound is a pure substance composed of one or more elements.
What is temperature?
Temperature is a measure of heat intensity, or the hotness or coldness of a substance.

What is weight?
Weight is the force with which gravity attracts a body.
What is mass?
Mass refers to the amount of matter an object contains independent of gravity.
Whats an atom?
Particles that made up everything around us.
What are atoms made up of?
Protons (positive charge)
Neutrons (neutral charge)
Electrons (negative charge)
What is the formula for density?
D= M/V
Do elements in the neutral state have the same, less, or more electrons than protons
same
The atomic number is equal to
The amount of protons
How do you find the amount of neutrons?
atomic mass - atomic number
What is the Thomson Experiment
Experiment proved atoms are made up of dense nuclei. When alpha particles go through a gold nucleus they either pass, are diverted, or bounced back.
What is a cation?
Positively charged,missing electrons (less electrons than protons)
What is a anion?
Negatively charged, add electrons
What are gas molecules like?
Gas Molecules are spread apart and floating in the air
What are liquid molecules like?
Liquid molecules takes the shape of the container but only where the liquid is
How does a liquid molecule become a gas molecule
When liquid molecules are spread apart and get suspended in the air they become gas
What are solid molecules like
Solid molecules have organized structures, well defined dimensions, keep their shape and are attracted to one another.
