Chap 1 - Matter and Change

AB
ChemistryThe scientific study of the composition, structure, and properties of matter and the changes that matter undergoes.,
ChemicalAny substance that has a defined composition.,
MassA measure of the amount of matter in an object.,
MatterAnything that has mass and takes up space.,
AtomThe smallest unit of an element that maintains the chemicial properties of that element.,
ElementA substance that cannot be separated or broken down into simpler substances by chemical means; All atoms of an element have the same atomic number.,
CompoundA substance made up of atoms of two or more different elements joined by chemical bonds.,
Extensive propertyA property that depends on the extent or size of a system.,
Intensive propertyA substance that forms in a middle stage of a chemical reaction and is considered a stepping stone between the parent sbstance and the final product.,
Physicial propertyA characteristic of a substance that does not involve a chemical change, such as density, color, or hardness.,
Physicial changeA change to matter from one form to another without a change in chemical properties.,
Change of stateThe change of asubsance from one physicial state to another.,
SolidThe state of matter in which the volume and shape of a substance are fixed.,
GasA form of matter that does not have a definite shape or volume.,
PlasmaIn physicial science, a state of matter that starts as a gas and then becomes ionized; It consists of freemoving ions and electrons, it takes on an electric charge, and its properties diffeer from those oa solid, liquid, or gas.,
Chemical propertyA property of matter that describes a substance's ability to participate in chemical reactions.,
Chemical changeA change that occurs when one or more substances with different properties,
Chemical ReactionThe process by which one or more substances change to produce one or more different substances.,
ReactantA substance or molecule that participates in a chemical reaction,
GroupA vertical column of elements in the periodic table; Elements in a group share chemical properties.,
FamilyA vertical column of the periodic table.,
PeriodIn chemistry, a horizontal row of elements in the periodic table.,
MetalAn element that is shiny and that conducts heat and electricity well.,
NonmetalAn element that conducts heat and electricity poorly and that does not form positive ions in an electrolytic solution.,
MetalloidAn element that has properties of both metals and onmetals: sometimes referred to as a semiconductor.,
LiquidThe state of matter that has a definite volume but not a definite shape.,
