smallest particle of an element that has properties of that element and can enter into a chemical combination

-discovered by democritus- believed atmons are made of particles that could not be broken down

29.

molecule

consist of two or more atoms joined together by strong forces called chemical bonds

constant composition, pure ( nacl, h20,)

31.

mixture

is composed of two or more types of matter that can be present in varying amounts and can be separated by physical change ( evaporation)

atomic theory

-All matters are made of tiny indivisible particles called "atoms"

- Atoms of same element are similar, atoms of different elements are different

-Elements combine to form compounds, combination of atoms of different element, produce compound atom

-Created by john Dalton

40.

Conservation of mass

mass is constant (does not change and can not be broken or destroyed) "here to stay"

41.

law of definite proportion

elements combine in fixed proportion by mass to form compound.

( they also combine in certain ways, never changes)

ALSO, it is fixed because you need to take the whole atom, never can take a portion

example: 1g hydrogen and 8g oxygen and 9g water) FIXED BY MASS

question: the mercury content of a stream was believed to be above the minimum considered safe- 1 part per billion (ppb) by weight. An analysis indicated that the concentration was 0.68 parts per billion. What quantity of mercury in grams was present in 15.0L of the water, the density of which is 0.998 g/ml? (1ppb Hg= 1ng Hg/ 1g water)

(.998(gW/L))(15000mL)(.68gHg)/(1,000,000gW)

It's just grams of mercury per one billion grams of water. You use the density of water to multiply by the volume to find the mass of water, then multiply the ppb to cancel out the grams of water and leave you with grams of HG
