| The branch of chemistry that deals with living things (current or past) and contain the element carbon: | Organic chemistry |
| The element that distinguishes a living being from a non living being: | Carbon |
| Matter is a substance that: | Occupies space |
| Anything that occupies space: | Matter |
| The basic forms of matter are: | Solid, liquid and gas |
| Something that has a definite weight, volume and shape is a: | Solid |
| The simplest form of matter that cannot be broken down further without losing its identity: | Elements |
| Elements are made up of: | Atoms |
| Atoms are the basic unit of a/an: | Elements |
| Atoms have three parts: | Protons, electrons and neutrons |
| A group of atoms chemically bonded together is a/an: | Molecule |
| The changing of matter where a it loses its identity and becomes something different: | Chemical change |
| PH stands for: | Potential Hydrogen |
| If a solution has more hydrogen ions than hydroxide ions it is: | Acid |
| Acid solutions have a pH of: | 0-6.9 |
| On the pH scale 7.1 to 14 indicates a solution is: | Alkaline |
| Acid balanced means the solution is balanced between this range: | 4.4-5.5 |

| Two or more liquids that can be mixed together and stay mixed are said to be: | Miscible |
| Two immiscible items that are held together with a binder: | Emulsion |
| A gum-like substance that helps unite two unmixable particles is called a/an: | Emulsifier |
| The product used to bind or emulsify oil and water to create an emulsion: | Surfactant |
| The two parts surfactant is the oil-loving end and the: | Hydrophilic end |
