Matter and Chemical Formulae - Index Task 1

This document provides an index of questions about matter and chemical formulas for 7th grade students. It includes entry level questions about the states of matter, examples of chemical and physical changes, and the formula for common salt. It then provides a task for students to demonstrate their understanding of matter, atoms, elements, chemical symbols, and calculating atomicity. The task includes differentiating forms of matter, classifying samples as elements, compounds or mixtures, identifying chemical symbols and their origins, and calculating the atomicity of molecules. It concludes with critical thinking questions about the structure of atoms and mixtures.
