What is the difference between a compound and a mixture?- A.
A compound is a pure substance made up of two or more elements that are combined chemically in a specific ratio. A mixture is two or more substances that are in the same place and are not chemically combined.
- B.
A mixture is a pure substance made up of two or more elements that are combined chemically in a specific ratio. A compound is two or more substances that are in the same place and are not chemically combined.
- C.
A compound is a mixture made up of two or more elements that are chemically combined. A mixture is a combination of two or more substances that occupy the same place.
- D.
A compound is set of element that are blended but not chemically combined. A mixture is made up of emulsifiers.
- 2.A compound is different from an element because a compound is:
- A.
Made of two or more elements chemically combined.

The building block of all matter.
- C.
A mixture of elements.

- 5.Identify the scientist who found that atoms contain negatively charged particles and reasoned that because atoms must be neutral, an atom needs to contain some positive charge. This scientist thought that the negatively charged particles would be scattered throughout a ball of positive charge. The negatively charged particles later became known as electrons.

![This scientist discovered another particle in the nucleus of an atoms. The discovery completed the modern atomic model. This particle was hard to detect because it does not have an electrical charge even though it has nearly the same mass as a proton. Because the particle had no electrical charge it was called a neutron. - ProProfs]( "This scientist discovered another particle in the nucleus of an atoms.

- 8.Elements are called building blocks of matter because:
- A.
All matter is composed of one element or a combination of two of more elements.
- B.
All elements are made of molecules.
- C.
All matter is made of hydrogen.
- D.
All matter is composed of two or more elements in a specific ratio.
- 9.In 430 b.c. ancient Greece, a philosopher named Democritus proposed the idea that matter is made up of very small pieces that are "uncuttable" into smaller parts and still be that element. It took 2000 years until Democritus' idea was accepted. These small "uncuttable" pieces are called:
- A.
Atoms
- B.
Molecules
- C.
Ions
- D.
Elements
- 10.What was important about Rutherford's gold foil experiment?
- A.
Rutherford's team of scientists aimed a beam of positively charged particles at a thin sheet of gold foil. They predicted that the charged particles would pass right through the foil in a straight line. The gold atoms in the foil would not have enough positive charge in any given area to repel the charged particles. The scientists observed that MOST of the particles passed through the foil undisturbed, as expected. A few particles strongly deflected in another direction. Since charges that are alike repel each other, Rutherford inferred that an atom's positive charge must be clustered in a tiny area in its center. Because of this experiment, Rutherford test showed evidence that the beam particles were repelled by the gold atom's center or nucleus.
