Anything that has mass and takes up space Matter Anything that has mass and takes up space
Matter: anything that has mass and takes up space. Every sample of matter is either: An element A compound Or a mixture
Matter example Gold is an element Water is a compound Italian Dressing is a mixture
Element: a substance that cannot be separated or broken down into simpler substances. Carbon Hydrogen Iron
Atom: smallest unit of an element that maintains the chemical property of that element Each element is made up of one kind of atom Diamonds and Graphite are both made from Carbon, but each is made from a different form of Carbon.
Atom: the smallest unit of an element Carbon has multiple forms, including diamond and graphite, but each form is made of carbon atoms.
Molecule:smallest particle of a substance; made of one atom or two or more bonded together Some elements like neon are found uncombined in nature. Other elements such as oxygen, form molecules that have more than one atom
Compounds: a substance made up of atoms of two or more different elements Water is a compound made of Hydrogen and Oxygen. Chemical formulas represent compounds C16H10N2O2 represents the compound Indigo
