A __________ is the smallest multi-atom particle of an element or compound that can exist and still retain the characteristics of the element or compound.
isotope |
|
neutron |
|
ion |
|
molecule |
A molecule is the smallest multi-atom particle of an element or compound that can exist and still retain the characteristics of the element or compound. The molecules of elements consist of two or more similar atoms, the molecules of compounds consist of two or more different atoms.
The rows of the Periodic Table of the Elements are called:
shells |
|
periods |
|
groups |
|
families |
The rows of the Periodic Table are called periods and contain elements that have the same number of electron shells ordered from lower to higher atomic number.
Which of blood component allows blood to clot?
red blood cells |
|
white blood cells |
|
plasma |
|
platelets |
Blood is created in bone marrow and is made up of cells suspended in liquid plasma. Red blood cells carry oxygen, white blood cells fight infection, and platelets are cell fragments that allow blood to clot.
Velocity and displacement are fully described by both a magnitude and a direction. Velocity and displacement are which of the following?
vector quantities |
|
composite quantities |
|
scalar quantities |
|
combinational quantities |
Velocity and displacement are vector quantities which means each is fully described by both a magnitude and a direction. In contrast, scalar quantities are quantities that are fully described by a magnitude only. A variable indicating a vector quantity will often be shown with an arrow symbol: \(\vec{v}\)
An element in the physical state of __________ maintains a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.
plasma |
|
solid |
|
liquid |
|
gas |
In the liquid state, molecules flow freely around each other and exist at a higher temperature range than the same substance in a solid state. Liquids maintain a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.
