proton
positive charge, mass 1, found in nucleus
physical change
a change in a substance that foes not involve a change in the identity of the substance

compound
a substance that is made from the atoms of two or more elements that are chemically bonded
ionization and electronegativity
decreases as you go down a group, increases as you go across a period
group
columns, families
atomic number
number of protons
nucleus
what does rutherford's gold foil experiment prove
atomic radius
decreases as you go down a group, decreases as you go across a period
kelvin
temperature
accurate
closeness of measurements to the correct or accepted value of the quantity measured
atom
the smallest unit of an element that maintains the properties of that element
period
rows
quantitative
data dealing with numbers
hunds rule
orbitals of equal energy are each occupied by one electron before any orbital is occupied by a second electron, and all electrons in singly occupied orbitals must have the same spin
metallic bond

neutron
neutral charge, mass 1, found in nucleus
candela
luminous intensity
fission
a very heavy nucleus splits into more stable nuclei of intermediate mass
density
mass/volume
ionization energy
the energy required to remove one electron from a neutral atom of an element
second
time
