Classification of Matter

AB
AtomsSmallest unit particle of an element.
Ball-and-Stick ModelA type of model used to show how some atoms are connected.
Chemical FormulaThe symbolic representation of the partials of a pure substance.
Chemical SymbolThe easy to write format that molecules and atoms are typically expressed in.
CompoundTwo or more elements in a stable amount that can be broken down through a chemical means.
DistillationA physical means of separating a mixture by heating the liquid to its boiling point to remove the liquid and leave behind another substance.
Distilled WaterPure water lacking any impurities.
Element SymbolsThe short hand method of writing an element with the first letter capitalized and the second in lower case (when applicable).
ElementA pure substance that cannot be broken down any further thorough chemical or physical means.
FiltrationA physical means of separating a mixture by using a porous medium to allow the liquid to flow through however not the solid within.
GasesState of mater when molecules are spaced out as much as possible. It has not definite shape or volume.
HeterogeneousA sample of matter that does not appear uniform throughout where it be in distinctive phases or visible to the naked eye.
HomogenousA sample of matter that appears uniform throughout.
Kinetic Molecular TheoryStates that all matter is composed of extremely tiny particles that are in constant motion.
Law of Definite CompositionStates any compound is always made up of elements of the same proportions by mass (weight).
LiquidsState of matter when molecules have some attractive force between them; it has a definite volume but not a definite shape.
MacroscopicThings that can be seen by the unaided eye
MatterAnything that has mass.
MicroscopicThings that have that have are too small to be seen without an aided eye.
MixtureA sample of matter that consists of two or more chemicals.
ModelA representation of something else.
MoleculeThe smallest individual particle that is present in one kind of matter.
ParticulateThe extremely tiny particles that make up all matter.
Periodic Table of ElementsA list of names and symbols of all the elements and includes additional information about each element.
Pure SubstanceA single chemical or one kind of matter.
SolidState of matter when the molecules are closely packed together and there is little room to vibrate; it has both a definite shape and volume.
SolutionA homogenous mixture of two substances that are in the same phase.
Space –Filling ModelShows the outer boundaries where that the particle will fill.
States of MatterWhen a substance has uniform composition and appearance.
