Ions
These are the smallest unit of matter that can’t be broken down chemically
Atoms
These are groups of two or more atoms that are chemically bonded
Molecules
These are particles that have gained or lost one or more of their valence electrons.
Ions
State of Matter
Solid, Liquid, Gas, Plasma, and Bose-einstein condensate
It is a hot ionized gas consisting of approximately equal numbers of positively charged ions and negatively charged electrons.
Plasma
The characteristics of _________ are significantly different from those of ordinary neutral gases that _________ are considered a distinct “fourth state of matter.”
Plasma, plasmas
It is a state of matter in which separate atoms or subatomic particles, cooled to near absolute zero
BOSE-EINSTEIN CONDENSATE
When they reach that temperature the atoms are hardly moving relative to each other; they have almost no free energy to do so. At that point, the atoms begin to clump together, and enter the same energy states.
BOSE-EINSTEIN CONDENSATE
Properties of Matter
Physical Properties, Chemical Properties, Intensive Properties, Extensive Properties
These can be measured and observed without changing the composition of the substance
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
These are the ability of a substance to react with other substances such as air, water, and base.
CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
It does not depend on the size or amount of the sample.
INTENSIVE PROPERTIES
These can be affected by the size and amount of samples.
EXTENSIVE PROPERTIES
List of Intensive Physical Properties
Color, Density, Solubility, Conductivity
Malleability, Luster, Viscosity, Bolling Point, Temperature, Odor, Melting Point
List of Extensive Properties
Mass, Volume, Length
(Chemical Properties)
Whether the substance undergoes combustion or not
Combustibility
(Chemical Properties)
Whether the substance can be easily decomposed or not
Stability
(Chemical Properties)
Whether it reacts with acids, bases, and oxygen, gas or not
Reactivity
(Chemical Properties)
Whether the material is more active or less active than other members of its chemical family
Relative Activity
(Chemical Properties)
Whether it will break into charged particles when in solution with water or not.
