Document Summary

Matter is anything that takes up space and has mass. The three states of matter are solid, liquid, and gas. All matter, living or nonliving, is made up of elements. Elements- substances that cannot be broken down into simpler substances by ordinary chemical means. Elements that make up 95% of organisms (by weight) An atom is the smallest part of an element that displays the properties of the element. Atomic mass = number of protons + number of neutrons. Atomic number = the number of protons (search these) Even though each element consists of a different atom, certain chemical and physical properties recur (periodically) The periodic table is used to group the elements according to these characteristics. Isotopes are atoms of the same element that differ in their number of neutrons, therefore. Isotopes have the same number of protons, but their mass number is different. Mri- they don"t use the name with nuclear because it sounded scary.
