Model
Anything that has mass and takes up space
Matter
A collection of atoms that have the same number of protons
Elements
A change that affects the appearance but not the chemical makeup if a substance
Physical changes
A change that alters the makeup of the elements or molecules of a substance
Chemical change
The random motion of molecules from an area if high concentration to an area of low concentration
Diffusion
A measurement of how much solute exists within a certain volume of solvent
Concentration
A membrane that allows some molecules to pass through but does not allow other molecules to pass through
Semi permeable membrane
The tendency of a solvent to travel across a semipermeable membrane into areas of higher solute concentration
