Substance A type of matter defined by a unique particle Matter Anything that has mass and takes up space (Volume) Atom The smallest particle of an element Proton and Neutron in the nucleus Electron outside of the nucleus in the electron cloud Atom Proton A subatomic particle that has a positive charge. Located in the nucleus of an atom Heaviest subatomic particle Neutron A subatomic particle with no charge Located in the nucleus of an atom Nearly the same mass as a proton Electron A subatomic particle with an negative charge Located outside of the nucleus in the Electron Cloud Lightest of all subatomic particles Almost no mass at all. Element Key Element Name Gold 79 Atomic Symbol Au 196.97 Atomic Number Atomic Mass Atomic Mass Unit The mass of 1 atom is measured in Atomic Mass Units Abbreviated AMU 1 AMU is equal to the mass of 1 proton.
