| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| atom - | Basic unit of matter |
| Chemical Reaction - | the process by which one or more substances change to produce one or more different substances |
| Element - | a pure substance made of only one kind of atom |
| Evaporate - | when a substance changes from a liquid to a gas |
| Flammability - | A material's ability to burn in the presence of oxygen |
| Freeze - | when a substance changes from a liquid to a solid |
| Gas - | A state in which matter expands to occupy whatever volume is available. This state has no fixed volume of shape |
| Condense - | when a substance changes from a gas to a liquid |
| hardness - | how resistant an object is to pressure (firm to touch) or its ability to resist scratches |
| Liquid - | State in which matter maintains a fixed volume but adapts to the shape of its container |
| magnetic - | the ability to attract iron objects |
| matter - | Anything that has mass and takes up space |
| Melt - | When a substance changes from a solid to liquid |
| Particles - | extremely small units of matter |
| mixture - | any material made of a combination of two or more substances that are combined in such a way that each substance keeps it's own properties. |
| Molecule - | A group of atoms bonded together |
| Phase Change - | When matter changes from one form (solid, liquid, gas) to another due to a change in energy |
| Product - | a substance produced in a chemical reaction |
| Property - | characteristics about a substance that make it unique |
| Reactants - | a substance that takes part in and undergoes change during a reaction. |
| Solid - | state in which matter has closely packed, slowly-moving particles |
| soluble - | a substance that can be completely dissolved in a liquid |
| solution - | a mixture in which all the parts are mixed evenly |
| compound - | A substance whose smallest unit is made up of more than one element |
| boiling point - | The temperature at which a liquid changes to a gas |
| Sublimation - | A change directly from the solid to the gaseous state without becoming liquid |
| melting point - | The temperature at which a solid becomes a liquid |
| Therm - | Heat |
| Endo - | inside |
| exo - | outside |
