  11. A charged atom or group of atoms caused by a charge imbalance, which is produced by an unequal number of protons and electrons.
  12. A pure substance made of only one kind of atom.
  13. The attractive force between any two objects based on their masses. The strength of gravity decreases rapidly as the two objects move apart.
  14. A rigid state of matter in which the particles align in a fixed arrangement. A solid substance has an un-changing shape and volume.
  15. The change in state from a gas to a liquid caused by removing energy. Condensation occurs at the dew point and is the opposite of vaporization.
  16. The smallest neutral particle of an element that retains the characteristics of that element. atoms are composed of a positive nucleus containing protons and usually neutrons, surrounded by negatively charged electrons.
  17. The change of state from a solid to a liquid at the melting point that is caused by adding energy. Melting is the opposite of freezing.
