Grade 9 Academic Science – Unit Ecosystems Atom

Grade 9 Academic Science – Unit Ecosystems The smallest piece of any element

Grade 10 Academic Science – Unit Chemistry Electron

Grade 10 Academic Science – Unit Chemistry A negatively charged sub- atomic particle that usually moves within “orbits” around the nucleus

Grade 10 Academic Science – Unit Chemistry Neutron

Grade 10 Academic Science – Unit Chemistry A sub-atomic particle that has no electrical charge and is located in the nucleus of an atom

Grade 10 Academic Science – Unit Chemistry Physical Property

Grade 10 Academic Science – Unit Chemistry A characteristic of a substance that can be seen without a new substance being produced e.g., colour, viscosity, hardness

Grade 10 Academic Science – Unit Chemistry Chemical Change

Grade 10 Academic Science – Unit Chemistry A change in a substance that results in the formation of one or more substances Clues of chemical change include (1) gas formation, (2) new colour, (3) heat or light production, and (4) a solid precipitate forms in a liquid
