A given kind of matter has the same chemical makeup and the same chemical properties regardless of its state. Thats because state of matter is a physical property. As a result, when matter changes state, it doesnt become a different kind of substance. For example, water is still water whether it exists as ice, liquid water, or water vapor.

The diagram shows how elements are written in relation to the mass and atomic number. The symbol X stands for the chemical symbol of the element. Two numbers are commonly used to distinguish atoms: atomic number and mass number. The symbol A at the top right of the element symbol refers to the mass number. Mass number is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons in an atom. The symbol Z at the bottom right of the element symbol refers to the atomic number. The atomic number is the number of protons in an atom. This number is unique for atoms of each kind of element.

The atomic number shows the number of protons. In the upper left part, there is the mass number. The mass number is the sum of the number of protons and neutrons. In addition, if the element is a ion, the charge is shown in the upper right part of the symbol.

The SI unit for distance is the meter (m). Short distances may be measured in centimeters (cm), and long distances may be measured in kilometers (km). For example, you might measure the distance from the bottom to the top of a sheet of paper in centimeters and the distance from your house to your school in kilometers.

Specific heat is a measure of how much energy it takes to raise the temperature of a substance. It is the amount of energy (in joules) needed to raise the temperature of 1 gram of the substance by 1 C. Specific heat is a property that is specific to a given type of matter. Thats why its called specific.

No doubt you already have a good idea of what temperature is. You might define it as how hot or cold something feels. In physics, temperature is defined as the average kinetic energy of the particles in an object. When particles move more quickly, temperature is higher and an object feels warmer. When particles move more slowly, temperature is lower and an object feels cooler.

Mass is the amount of matter in a substance or object. Mass is commonly measured with a balance. A simple mechanical balance is shown in Figure 3.1. It allows an object to be matched with other objects of known mass. SI units for mass are the kilogram, but for smaller masses grams are often used instead.

Radiometric dating is the process of using the concentrations of radioactive substances and daughter products to estimate the age of a material. Different isotopes are used to date materials of different ages. Using more than one isotope helps scientists to check the accuracy of the ages that they calculate.

Air temperature in the stratosphere layer increases with altitude. Why? The stratosphere gets most of its heat from the Sun. Therefore, its warmer closer to the Sun. The air at the bottom of the stratosphere is cold. The cold air is dense, so it doesnt rise. As a result, there is little mixing of air in this layer.

There are three states of matter. These three states include solid, liquid, and gas. Solid states of matter are rigid and have a fixed shape and fixed volume. They cannot be squashed. Liquid states of matter are not rigid and have no fixed shape, but have a fixed volume. They too cannot be squashed. Gas states of matter are not rigid and have no fixed shape and no fixed volume. This state of matter can be squashed.

Gas assumes the shape and volume of its container particles can move past one another. Liquid also assumes the shape of the part of the container which it occupies particles can move/slide past one another. while solids retains a fixed volume and shape rigid - particles locked into place

Water vapor is an example of a gas. A gas is matter that has neither a fixed volume nor a fixed shape. Instead, a gas takes both the volume and the shape of its container. It spreads out to take up all available space. You can see an example in Figure 4.6.
