Question

Drag the terms on the left to the appropriate blanks on the right to complete the sentences.

Answer 1

1. \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}\), sulfuric acid, contains three different types of atoms: hydrogen (H), sulfur (S), and oxygen(O). Each of these atoms represents a different \(\mid\) element \(.\) Since the three types are combined in a fixed ratio, this means that \(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{SO}_{4}\) is a(n) compound.

2. The scientific study of matter is called chemistry.

3. If two or more atoms are bonded together, they form a(n) molecule.

4. Within a plant, water \(\left(\mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O}\right)\) and carbon dioxide \(\left(\mathrm{CO}_{2}\right)\) can be combined (using the energy of sunlight) to produce glucose \(\left(\mathrm{C}_{6} \mathrm{H}_{12} \mathrm{O}_{6}\right)\) and oxygen \(\left(\mathrm{O}_{2}\right)\). If you were to write out this chemical reaction, water and carbon dioxide are each an example of a(n) reactant while glucose and oxygen are each an example of a(n) product.

5. matter is anything that occupies space and/or has any substance.

6. The smallest unit of matter that retain all of the physical properties of that type of matter is a(n) atom.
