Anion
Negative Ion
Atom
Smallest particle of matter
Atomic Mass
Tells the mass of an element. Equal to the sum of the protons and neutrons
Atomic number
Equal to the number of protons and electrons in one atom of that element
Cation
Positive Ion
Chemical Change
When the original substance is changed into a new one
Chemical Property
Characteristic behaviors that occur when two substances react to form a new one
Example: Hydrogen and Oxygen react to from water
Coeffcient
The number in-front of the formula
What are the equations to calculate volume, density and mass? (Triangle)
Density: Mass/ Volume
Volume: Mass/ Density
Mass: Density x Volume

Compound
Pure substances containing two or more types of atoms chemically bonded together
Element
A pure substance, found on the periodic table
Group
The columns on the periodic table
Heterogeneous Mixture
A mixture that you can see two or more phases throughout

Homogeneous Mixture
A mixture in which you can only see one phase throughout

How can u tell by what coloumn an element is in how many electrons are on its outer valence?
The group number. When it reaches the teens, it becomes the second number
Example: 17 has 7 electrons in the outer valence
If an atom gains 2 electrons to become stable it’s charge is…
-2
If an atom looses 6 electrons to become stable, it’s charge is…
+6
Ion
An atom that has gained or lost electrons to form a charged particle
Ionic Compound
A compound made of a metal and a non-metal
Matter
Anything that takes up space and has a mass
Mechanical Mixture
A heterogeneous mixture that can be seperated through mechanical means
Mixture
Made up of two or more types of particles
Molecular Element
A molecule that is made up of two atoms of the same element
HOBrFINCI
Example: Cl2, Br2
Molecular/ Covalent Compound
A compound form by two or more non-metals
Molecule
Two or more atoms joined together by a chemical bond
Neutron
Uncharged subatomic particle
What are the 5 rules of the Particle Theory?
1) Different substances are made up of different types of particles
2) Particles are in constant random motion
3) All matter is made up of tiny particles, with small spaces in between them
4) Particles move faster as temperature increases
5) Particles attract eachother
Period
The rows on the periodic table
Physical Change
A change in the form or state of a substance without forming a new one
Physical Property
Chacteristics that help to identify a substance
Example: 5 Senses
Polymer
A type of plastic
Proton
Positive subatomic particle
Pure Substance
Made up of only one type of particle
Stable Atom
The valence shell of the atom is full
Subscript
The small number that indicated how many there are of that element
Valence
The outer most shell of an atom
What are 3 physical properties common to all metals?
1) Shiny, silver or grey
2) Malleable and ductile
3) Solid at room temperature ( Except Mercury)
What are the 2 rules to remember when finding the number of protons, neutrons and electrons?
1) The atomic number of the element, protons and electrons are all the same
2) Neutrons are found by subtracting the atomic number of the element from the atomic mass
What are the 3 characteristics of chemical properties?
1) Combustibility
2) Reaction with acid
3) Corrosion
What are the 3 states of matter?

What are the 6 changes of state?
1) Pure Substance
2) Mixture
3) Element
4) Compounds
5) Homogeneous Mixture
6) Heterogeneous Mixture
