Unit 1 Flashcards
What is an element
consist of only one kind of atom, cannot be broken down
What is a compound
two or more elements chemically bonded together into molecules/extended structures
Daltons law of conservation of mass
total mass remains constant in a reaction
Daltons law of constant (definite) composition
all samples of a given compound consist of the same mass fraction
daltons law of multiple proportions
In different compounds of the same elements, the mass of combining the elements can be expressed in simple whole ratios

proton, neutron, electron
what does Z stand for in atomic notation
Atomic number (protons)
what does a stand for in atomic notation
mass number (protons + neutrons)
