The temperature of an object is related to the?
Type of matter itis
What type of pattern does matter moves in?
That depends on the type of matter. Say, for example, the matter is a chair that you are moving. Then the matter would move in the direction in which you are pushing (or pulling, throwing, etc). If you define matter as a particule (such as an atom), then it would depend on the type of particle. Different particles move in different ways, depending on the type. If you are asking about particules moving as a smaller, less substantial unit (such as a neuronal transmission) then the pattern would be linear. But the broad answer really is that it depends on the type of matter.
What is air and how is it a form of matter?
It's a mix of gases (mostly nitrogen), gases are made of atoms, everything made of atoms is matter.
What type of particle leaves a long thin trail in a cloud chamber?
Alpha Particle
How does a particle differ from a wave in everyday life?
Talking about conventional physics, a wave is the movement of energy through a massive group of particles, be it through either longitudinal, or transverse type waves. A particle is the medium that all waves move through. When we get to light however, there is a different story entirely, and only quantum physics can really answer that. A light ray is made up of photons (hence why a "wave" of any kind must be travelling through, or with, some kind of particle. Without a particle, there is no wave. Quantum theory states that everything is particles and waves, which resolves to everything is particles, which then resolves to everything is fields (fields being a type of wave, I suppose) So, for all but the purpose for quantum physics, a wave is the movement of energy through a medium (eg, liquid, gas or air) and a particle is simply a piece of matter, an atom, a molecule... anything you can see really.
Are elements are a single type of matter?
yes, element are single type of matter or pure substances that is made up of one type of atom only.
Is a atom a type of matter?
Yes it is, it's the smallest particle of matter
Why is hydrogen a pure substance?
Hydrogen is a pure substance because it is a single element made up of only 1 type of particle.
What starts with a q and makes up protons electrons nuetrons?
Quarks are one type of matter particle. Most of the matter we see around us is made from protons and neutrons, which are composed of quarks.
The temperature of an object is related to the?
Type of matter itis
What is the smallest particle of matter that still has the same characteristics as the original matter?
It depends on the matter. If it is a chemically pure substance that is made up of a single element, it is an atom. If it is an ionic or molecular compound, then the smallest particle that has the same behavior is a molecule.
What is the most general name for any single type of matter that is made from a specific arrangement of atoms?
substance
What is a sample of matter that is either a single element or single compound?
Not very much matter is made up of only one kind of atom. Graphite in pencil leads is a popular one, but most matter is made up of several kinds of atoms.
What form of matter is made from only one type of matter?
Elements are made from one type of atom.
What type of substance made up of a single type of atom?
Elements.
What form of matter is made form only one type of atom?
Matter made up of only one type of atom would be described as a pure element.All matter is made of atoms that consist, basically, of sub-atomic particles called protons, neutrons, and electrons.
What is a small particle that makes up most types of matter called?
The word you are probably looking for is 'atoms'. However there are many different types of particle: molecules and ions are on the same scale as atoms. Atoms are made of protons, neutrons and electrons. Some of these are made up of quarks....
