Chapter 8 Earth Chemistry

AB
Matterthe substance of which an object is made
Amount of Matterdetermines the mass of that object
What is matteranything that take up space
Matter's two typesPhysical properties and Chemical properties
Physical Propertycharact. that can be observed without changing the composition of the substance
Chemical Propertycharact. that describe how a substance interacts with other substances to produce different kinds of matter.
What makes up Matterelements
Elementa substance that has a charact. set of physical and chemical properties.
How many occur naturally in the earthover 90 elements.
how elements are divided98% earth crust, 75% silicon and oxygen make up the Earth's crust.
AtomsIs an element and is the smallest unite of an element and has ll the properties of that element.
What are Atoms made ofmade up of 7 smaller parts called substomic particles
Three major kinds of subatoms particleselectrons, protons and neutrons
Neutroncarry negative electrical charge
Protonscarry a positive charge
Neutronsneutral having No net electrical charge.
Protons and Neutrons together formnucleus
Nucleusa small region in the center of an atom.
electron cloudregion of space around the nucleas of an atom in which electrons may be found
atomic numberis equal to the number of protons in the nucleus
Mass numbersum of the numbers of protons and neutron in an atom
isotpoesatom of an elementthat has the same atomic number but different atomic mass than another atom of that element
classify matter into three physical formssolid, liquid and gas
compounda substance that results when the atoms of two or more elements are chenmically combined
moleculesmallest complete unit of a compound
diatomicconsisting of two atoms
energy levelsarranceent of electrons within the electron cloud of an atom
chemical bondsforces that hold together the atom that make up a compound
ionic bondbond in which electrons are transferred from one atom to another
ionic compoundcompound formed through the transfer of electrons
ionatom or group of atoms that carries an electrical charge
Color and hardness are examples of an elementsphysical properties
A substance that cannot be broken down into a simpler form by ordinary chemical means isa gas
The smalles unit of an element isan atom
Particles in atoms that do not carry an electricle charge are calledneutrons
The number of protons in the nucleus indicates the atoms isatomic number
The mass numbe3r of an atom is equal to itstotal number of neutrons and protons
Atoms of the same element that differ in mass areisotopes
A material with a definite shape and volume is asolid
A liquid does not have a definiteshape
If a gas is not confined, the space between its particles willdecrease rapidly
Atoms of two or more elements that are chemically united forma compound
An atom does not easily lose or gain electrons if it hasa filled outer energy level
A molecule of water, or H2O has pre atom ofoxygen
A aterial that contains two or more sustances that are not chemically confined isa mixture
