reverse Pure Substances and Mixtures Flashcards
term used to describe a substance that does not appear uniform throughout (196)
heterogeneous
term used to describe a substance that appears uniform throughout (195)
homogeneous
energy that an object or system has because of its motion; particles of matter have kinetic energy (200)
kinetic energy
matter that does not have a definite shape but does have a definite volume; the particles in a liquid are close together but can move easily around each other (194)
liquid
anything that has mass and takes up space; can be classified by its physical state (solid, liquid, or gas) and by composition (pure substance or mixture) (194)
matter
heterogeneous mixture; a mixture made up of many different substances, each with a different appearance and properties; a heterogeneous mixture does not have a uniform composition (196)
mechanical mixture
change of state from a solid to a liquid; it involves adding heat (203)
melting
A
combination of two or more different substances; the substances are not chemically combined and may be separated again (195)
mixture
very small portion of matter that cannot be seen with the eyes alone (199)
particle
mix a substance (solute) with another substance (solvent) to form a solution (e.g., salt with water) (196)
dissolve
theory that states that all matter is made up of particles; that all particles of one substance are identical; that particles of matter are in constant motion; that temperature affects the speed at which particles move; that particles have forces of attraction between them; and that there are spaces between particles; this theory explains the behaviour of solids, liquids, and gases (200)
particle theory of matter
matter that has uniform properties and is one type of substance throughout (195)
pure substance
matter that has a definite shape and volume; in a solid, the particles are packed tightly together and vibrate in place (194)
solid
A
change of state from a liquid or gas to a solid; it involves removing heat; also called freezing (203)
solidification
homogeneous mixture of two or more substances, which may be solids, liquids, or gases or a combination of these (196)
