Property Of Matter Flashcards
What is an element
Made up of only one type of atom cannot be broken in to similar particles
Compounds
Made up of two or more different atoms
Can be broken down chemically (h2O)
Solutions
A substance that is the same throughout
Has the same appearance (salt and water)
Suspension
A mixture with distinct sedimentation
U can see particles in the water (sand and water )
Mechanical mixture
Can be separated easily ( trail mix )
Heterogeneous
Does not look the same throughout
Homogeneous
Has the same appearance throughout
What things are homogeneous
Solution compound element
What things are under heterogeneous
Mechanical mixture and suspension
Pure substance
Something that is the same throughout
Mixture
Things that were not chemically together , being mixed
What is under mixture
Mechanical mixture and suspension
What is under pure substances
Solution compound and element
What is at the top of the chart
MATTER
Kinetic molecular theory
They use this to explain what happens to matter when the kinetic energy of particles changes
