Element
A pure substance made of the same type of atoms that cannot be chemically broken down (examples: silver, gold, hydrogen).
Compound
A pure substance made of 2 or more elements chemically combined (examples: H2O, rust, NaCl, CH4).
Mixture
A substance made of 2 or more elements or compounds that are not chemically combined.
Heterogeneous Mixture
A mixture with a non-uniform composition and distinct layers, different
Homogeneous Mixture
A mixture with a uniform composition where particles are evenly distributed throughout, same.

Cohesion
A property of water where water molecules stick to water molecules (example: water drops).
Adhesion
A property of water where water molecules stick to another substance (example: water sticking to a stem).
Surface Tension
The skin-like layer on the surface of H2O caused by water molecules pulling together.
Insect Support on Water
Enabled by cohesion and surface tension, which create a skin-like layer on top of the water that allows small insects to stay on top instead of sinking.
