ASSIGNED MONDAY (1/16)--LOG 15 MINUTES BY 10 PM THURSDAY

AB
ATOMSSMALLEST UNIT OF MATTER WITH PROPERTIES OF SINGLE ELEMENT
ELEMENTPURE SUBSTANCE OF ONE TYPE OF ATOM
SUBATOMIC PARTICLESPARTICFLES THAT MAKEUP AN ATOM
PROTONSPOSITIVE ATOMIC PARTICLE FOUND IN THE NUCLEUS OF AN ATOM
NEUTRONSNEUTRALLY CHARGED PARTICLE FOUND IN THE NUCLEUS OF AN ATOM
ELECTRONSNEGATIVE ATOMIC PARTICLES FOUND SURROUNDING THE NUCLEUS
ATOMSsmallest constituent unit of ordinary matter that has the properties of a chemical element.
ELEMENTPURE SUBSTANCE OF ONE KIND OF ATOM
NUCLEUScenter of an atom; made up of protons and neutrons
PERIODIC LAWproperties of elements tend to repeat in a regular pattern when elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number
METALSgrouped on left side of periodic table; elements are shiny and conduct heat and electricity
NONMETALSelements that are poor conductors of heat and electricity; grouped on the right side of periodic table
METALLOIDSelements that have properties of metals and nonmetals
ATOMIC MASSweighted average mass of element's isotopes
MENDELEEVfather of periodic table: determined the relationship of elements to organize them into a table
physical changeno change in the chemical makeup of substance
physical changechanges between states of matter such as freezing and melting
metalsclassification of elements such as zinc and copper
oxygenName of element with atomic number of 8
metalloidsclassification of elements such as boron and astatine
boronName of element with 5 protons
silverName of element with symbol of Ag
heliumName of element with 2 electrons
nonmetalsclassification of elements such as carbon and fluorine
chemical changeresult of a reaction in which the chemical makeup of the substance changes
physical changeboiling liquid water changes to steam
protonssame as atomic number
electronsatom has no charge, is neutral so number of protons equals number of ________
elementA substance composed of a single kind of atom.
AMUabbreviation for atomic mass unit
mass numbersum of protons and neutrons
isotopesmembers of a family of an element that all have the same number of protons but different numbers of neutrons
atomic mass unita unit of mass for expressing masses of atoms
atomic massaverage weighted masses of all an element's isotopes
electronsfound in shells /orbits that surround nucleus of the atom
