Below are some objectives. Check if each objective possesses the SMART characteristics. If not, please suggest a revision for that objective. 1. use the periodic table to analyze the atomic composition of the elements 2. understand the relative size of an atom 3. analyze a change to determine evidence present to classify changes as either physical or chemical. 4.build an atom 5. evaluate a change as either chemical or physical (based on criteria)
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.
