element. No overall electrical charge. Very small, radius of 0.1nm.
An element contains only one type of atom. Found on the Periodic Table.
Element
There are about 100 elements.
Compound Two or more elements chemically bonded with each other.
Contains two or more elements or compounds not chemically
Mixture bonded. Can be separated using physical methods e.g. by filtration,
crystallisation, distillation and chromatography.
Filtration A process that separates mixtures of insoluble solids and liquids.
A process that separates a soluble solid from a solvent by evaporating
Crystallisation

A process that separates a mixture of liquids based on their boiling

A process that separates mixtures by how quickly they move through
Chromatography

Isotope
different numbers of neutrons.
Relative atomic An average value of mass that takes account of the abundance of the
mass isotopes of the element.
