By D’Arcy Meredith
Elements
An element is a pure substance made up of one type of atom.
Atoms
An atom a fundamental piece of matter made up of protons, neutrons and electrons.
Protons
Electrons
Neutrons
Metals
Metal is an element, compound, or alloy characterized by electrical and heat conductivity .
What is non-metal?
A non-metal is an element on the periodic table that does not have the properties of a metal element such as malleability. Non metals are usually found as gases in nature or weak, brittle solids.

Description of what a periodic table is?
What is a compound?
A chemical compound is a substance composed of two or more different elements chemically bonded together in a fixed proportion by mass.
Chemicsal Reaction
A chemical reaction is a process that leads to the transformation of one set of chemicals substances to another.
Identify a chemical reatcion
Production of heat, light, gas or precipitate.
Physical and Chemical changes. A chemical change is
non reversible as a physical change is. For example, the burning of wood is a chemical change, as you can't unburn it, whereas the freezing of water would be a physical change because it can be reversed.
Factors affecting a Reaction Rate.
Temperature, concentration, size of particles or using a catalyst.
