| Element | Matter made of all the same kind of atoms |
| Elements are classified on the periodic table..... | according to whether they are metals or non-metals |
| The only 2 liquid elements are: | Bromine and Mercury |
| The properties of metals | Mostly solids, flexible, strong, can be molded into shpaes, conduct electricity, and conduct heat |
| The properties of non-metals | Can be solids, liquids, or gases, brittle and canot be molded, do NOT conduct electricity, do NOT heat |
| Elements are found.... | everywhere!!! |
| Compounds | A new substance that is formed when atoms of 2 or more different elements join together. |
| Atoms | the building blocks of all matter |
| Atom | the smallest particle of an element that retains the properties of that element |
| Electron | Negatively charged subatomic particle |
| Proton | A positively charged subatomic particle found in the nucleus |
| Neutron | A subatomic particle with no charge |
| Nucleus | Composed of neutrons and protons |
| Mass number | The total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus |
| Atomic Number | The number of protons in the nucleus of an atom |
| To find the number of neutrons... | subtract the atomic number from the rounded mass number (atomic weight) |
| H | Hydrogen |
| He | Helium |
| Li | Lithium |
| B | Boron |
| C | Carbon |

| NaCl | Sodium chloride |
| Physical Change | A change in which a physical property of matter is altered, but the substance remains the same kind of matter. |
| Color, hardness, density, solubility | Physical properties |
| Flammability, Acidity, Corrosiveness, Toxicity | Chemical Properties |
| Chemical Change | A change matter undergoes when it IS turned into a new substance. |
| Burning is a ________ change. | chemcial |
| Rusting is a ________ change. | physical |
