States of Matter

The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).

Chemical Reactions and Equations

When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.

In 1808 John Dalton published his atomic theory which was quickly adopted. The five tenets of Dalton's theory are An element is composed of tiny indivisible, indestructible particles called atoms. All the atoms of an element are identical and have the same properties. Atoms of different elements combine to form compounds. Compounds contain atoms in ratios of small whole numbers. Atoms can combine in more than one ratio to form different compounds. Although all of the statements were valid at the time, several have been modified as new discoveries were made. Which of these tenets have been modified? What caused the modification?

periodic table, a tool used by chemists to organize elements based on their properties. Elements are arranged in rows ( periods) and columns (groups or families) according to their atomic number, which is the number of protons in the nucleus of an atom. Elements in the same group often share similar chemical properties because they have the same number of valence electrons. For example, the alkali metals in Group 1 are all highly reactive with water. Which of the following best describes the organization of the periodic table? A) Elements are arranged alphabetically based on their names. B) Elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic number, with similar properties recurring in groups. C) Elements are arranged by their density, with heavier elements placed at the top. D) Elements are arranged based on the date of their discovery.
