32
Is the temperature where liquid changes to gas.
Boiling Point
33
is the property of a substance to dissolve in a solid, liquid, or gas.
Solubility
34
is a property of a material that pertains to the interaction on the surface of metals.
Luster
35
is the ability of a metal to be hammered or shaped into thin sheets without breaking of cracking.
Malleability
36
_______ is the ability of a metal to be drawn into thin wires. Metals are ductile because the atoms of metals can move past each other without breaking the metallic bond, which retains its structure.

Mixtures
61
*Mixtures can be ___________ or ___________.
- Homogenous
- Heterogenous
62
A mixture has only one phase and a uniform composition throughout.
Homogenous
63
It is difficult to distinguish the components of a ___________ mixture.
Homogenous
64
A mixture has two or more phases. Components of a heterogeneous mixture can be identified at times.
Heterogeneous
65
Methods of Separating Mixtures:
- Filtration
- Sedimentation and Decantation
- Sublimation
- Evaporation
- Distillation
- Chromatography
66
* This method is used for mixtures
of insoluble solid in a liquid.
* Filtration requires a filtering medium like cheesecloth or filter paper.
* The filter paper traps the insoluble solids while allowing the liquid to pass through.
* This process is applicable for a mixture of sand in water.
Filtration
67
The solid component that remained in the filtering medium is called the _____.
Residue
68
The liquid collected is called the _______.
Filtrate
69
* ___________ allows heavier solid components to settle at the bottom.
* When heavier components are finally settled, the liquid above is poured into another container, thus, the process of ____________.
Sedimentation and Decantation
70
* If a mixture involves a substance that can easily transform from a solid state to its gaseous state, sublimation is used.
* Example: mixture of naphthalene and salt. Slight increase of heat makes naphthalene sublime, leaving salt.
Sublimation
71
* __________ is used for mixtures of soluble solids in liquids, such as table salt in water.
* Water evaporates upon heating, leaving the salt crystals.
Evaporation
72
This method is used for mixtures of two liquids with different boiling points through continuous evaporation and condensation processes.
Distillation
73
* This method is used to separate
the components of inks.
* Using a mobile phase and stationary phase, the components rise in different speeds on the paper through capillary action.
Chromatography
