1. Heterogeneous
2. Elements and Compunds
3. Homogeneous
4. Coffe and Creamer
5. Trail Mix
6. A homogeneous mixture is a mixture where everything looks the same throughout. You can't easily, or at all, see the different components as they have been well mixed
7. Food Coloring and Water
8. Kool Aid and Water
9. Taco
10. Oil and Water
11. Heterogeneous mixtures are mixtures in which you can easily see/ separate the different components. Like you can pick out the pretzels in trail mix or the meat in a taco.
12. A mixture is a combination that does not change the properties of what it was made out of
13. Mixture
14. Characteristic Properties
15. Physical Properties
16. Shared Properties
17. Shared Properties are the shared things that separate metals, non-metals, and metalloids. For example, shiny or malleable are shared properties among metals.
18. Physical properties are the properties on the outside which don't really involve atoms or energy. Density and color are both physical properties.
19. Metals are elements that have the common physical properties of being dull, malleable, and ductile. The different kinds of metal are alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, lanthanides, transition metals, post-transition metals, and actinides.
20. Pure Substance
21. Element
22. Compound
23. Metals
24. Non-metals
25. Metalloids
26. Palladium
27. Hafnium
28. Molybdenum
29. Xenon
30. Krypton
31. Argon
32. Non-metals are substances that don't have the properties of metals. This means that they can't be rolled into wires or hammered into sheets like most metals. They are also good insulators of electrical current and thermal energy. The three types of non-metals are polyatomic non-metals, diatomic non-metals, and noble gases.
33. Boron
34. Germanium
35. Arsenic
36. Metalloids are substances with properties of both metals and non-metals. This means that some are malleable, some are not, some are ductile, others are not.
37. Water = 2 parts Hydrogen + 1 part Oxygen
38. Phosphorus Pentoxide = 2 parts Phosphorus + 5 parts Oxygen
39. Hydrogen Peroxide = 2 parts Hydrogen + 2 parts Oxygen
40. Compounds are when two or more elements/pure substances are chemically combined to where their chemical/physical properties change from what they were made of.
41. Chemical Properties
42. Chemical properties are the properties that involve things with the atoms. Like boiling point or reactivity with oxygen and so on. Melting point is also a chemical property.
