make it up.
TRUE.
Proportions in ___________ vary; whereas
proportions in __________ remain the same.
A. Mixtures; Compounds
B. Compounds; Mixtures
C. Atoms; Molecules
D. Molecules; Atoms
A. Mixtures; Compounds
True or False. Most substances are
considered to be pure.
False; most substances are considered
to be mixed. Example: the air you
breathe.

True or False. When a molecule
changes from one state to another,
the molecules in the substance do
not change.
TRUE. What
does
change???
.
Which of the following is an example of a physical
molecule that you see?
A. Water molecules
B. Molecules in your desk
C. Air molecules (bouncing dust particles)
D. Picture frame molecules
Both water molecules and air molecules are
acceptable
A _________ is a substance that
contains only one type of atom.
Element
What is the ONLY way to separate a
compound?
By breaking the bonds between atoms
How is a substance considered to
be pure?
If it has only ONE type of
component (molecule, atom—
ex: element)
What is a combination of different
substances that remain the same
individual substances and can be
separated by physical means? Please
provide an example as well.
Mixture. Answers may
vary—salads, trail mix,
smoothies...etc.
How is a compound different than a
mixture?
A. No difference, they are the same
B. Compounds can be separated by physical means,
whereas mixtures cannot
C. Mixtures are separated by breaking bonds, whereas
compounds are not.
D. Mixtures are separated by physical means and
compounds are separated by breaking bonds between
atoms
D. Mixtures are separated by physical
means and compounds are separated by
breaking bonds between atoms.
True or False. Heterogeneous- the same
throughout; homogeneous- varies
throughout .
False. Heterogeneous- varies throughout.
Homogeneous- the same throughout.
Which is NOT an example of a mixed
substance?
A. paper
B. air
C. element
D. wood
Element—pure substance!
Which state of matter does this
picture depict?
Solid
This state of matter has particles
that can move freely and has NO
fixed volume/fixed shape.
Gas
Whether a substance is a solid, liquid, or
gas depends on how close its atoms are to
one another and...
How free the atoms are to move
True or False. Gas molecules
move faster at higher
temperatures than they do at
lower temperatures.
TRUE.
How do gas molecules behave in a
closed container?
Gas molecules are always in motion; they
bounce off one another and the insides of
the container.
