| what is an element ? | an element is a substance that cannot be split into any simpler substances by chemical means. e.g copper ,gold ,hydrogen,chloride |
|
what kind of molecules does a solid have?
Image:
solid (image/png)
|
a solid has tightly packed molecules so there is no space for them to move. |
|
what kind of molecules does a liquid have?
Image:
liquid (image/png)
|
a liquid has closely packed molecules with a little bit of space so that the liquid can flow. |
|
what kind of molecules does gas have?
Image:
gas (image/png)
|
gas has very loosely packed molecules scattered about the place which means they have loads of space to move so the gas difuses. |
| what is an atom? | an atom is the smallest part of an element that still has the same properties of that element. e.g CO2 |
| explain a physical change. | a physical change is one in which no new substance is made e.g tearing paper |
| explain a chemical change. | a chemical change is a change in which a new substance is made. e.g burning paper, rusting , milk going sour |
| what is a compound? | a compound is 2 or more elements chemically combined. e.g water, sodium chloride , carbon dioxide |
|

| name two differences between plant cells and animal cells | 1) plant cells have a large central vacuole animal cells don't 2) plant cells have a cell wall. |
| what do you use to stain plant cells so you can see them under the microscope? | iodine. |
| what is a tissue? | it's a group of similar cells with a special function (e.g muscle,nerve) |
|
