Cohesion
Cohesion is the tendency of particles of the same kind to stick to each other and is an important property to consider when looking at states

What phase changes require energy to be added to the system because the substance has more energy at the end of the phase change?
The phase changes are melting, vaporization (boiling), and sublimation.
What phase changes require energy to be released to the system because the substance has more energy at the end of the phase change?
These phase changes are freezing, condensation, and deposition.
Matter
Matter is anything that takes up space and has mass. A golf ball contains more matter than a table-tennis ball. The golf ball has more mass. The amount of matter that an object contains is its mass.
Mass
Matter is anything that takes up space and has mass. A golf ball contains more matter than a table-tennis ball. The golf ball has more mass. The amount of matter that an object contains is its mass.
substance
A substance is matter that has a uniform and definite composition. Lemonade is not a substance because not all pitchers of lemonade are identical.
physical property
A physical property is a quality or condition of a substance that can be observed or measured without changing the substance’s composition.
chemical property
Chemical properties are observed only when a substance undergoes a change in composition, which is a chemical change.
extensive properties
extensive properties do depend on the amount of a sample that is present. A good example of the difference between the two types of properties is that mass and volume are extensive properties, but their ratio (density) is an intensive property. Notice that mass and volume deal with amounts, whereas density is a physical property.
Intensive properties
Intensive properties do not depend on the amount of matter that is present. Intensive properties do not change according to the conditions. They are used to identify samples because their characteristics do not depend on the size of the sample.
Deposition
Deposition is a gas changing into a solid without going through the liquid phase. It is an uncommon phase change.
Melting
Melting is the change of a solid into a liquid.
Sublimation
Sublimation is a solid changing into a gas. As a material sublimates, it does not pass through the liquid state. An example of sublimation is carbon dioxide, a gas, changing into dry ice, a solid.
polar molecule
Water is considered a polar molecule, a molecule where one end is slightly negative and the other end is slightly positive
valence electrons
Valence electrons, which are found in an atom’s outermost energy level, are involved in forming chemical bonds. The periodic table below shows the Bohr models of select elements. The valence electrons appear in red.
Ionic compounds
Ionic compounds are formed when electrons are transferred from a metal (which loses one or more electrons) to a nonmetal (which gains one or more electrons).
Covalent compounds
Covalent compounds are formed when two nonmetals or metalloids share electrons.
shared electrons
Covalent compounds can be modeled in Lewis structures. Lewis structures for methane, ammonia, and water are shown below. In a Lewis structure, covalent bonds, also called shared electrons, are represented by lines between two atoms.
single covalent bonds
In methane, ammonia, and water, atoms are joined by single covalent bonds in which the atoms share two electrons.
triple bond
Two nitrogen atoms form a molecule with a triple bond, in which three pairs of electrons (six electrons total) are shared.
nonpolar covalent.
If the two atoms share electrons equally, the bond is classified as nonpolar covalent. This occurs if the two atoms have similar electronegativities, which means that neither atom pulls significantly harder on the shared electrons than the other.
solution
A solution is a type of homogeneous mixture that is formed when a solute dissolves in a solvent.
heterogeneous
A heterogeneous mixture is when the substances mix unevenly and it is possible to see individual components. [Show Less]
