Question 1

A measure of the numbers of atoms in an object

a measure of the amount of matter in an object

Answer 1

Mass

Question 2

The quantity of three-dimensional space occupied by a liquid, solid, or gas.

Answer 2

Volume

Question 3

A physical property that will change if the amount of matter changes.

mass: how much matter in the sample
volume: How much space the sample takes up
length: How long the sample is

Answer 3

Extensive Property

Question 4

A physical property that will be the same regardless of the amount of matter.

density: ρ=mvρ=mv
color: The pigment or shade
conductivity: electricity to flow through the substance
malleability: if a substance can be flattened
luster: how shiny the substance looks

Answer 4

Intensive Property

Question 5

matter which has a specific composition and specific properties.

Answer 5

Substance

Question 6

Properties that do not change the chemical nature of matter.
A physical property is defined as a characteristic of matter that may be observed and measured without changing the chemical identity of a sample. may change the arrangement of matter in a sample, but not the structure of its molecules.

Answer 6

Physical Property

Question 7

A state of matter characterized by particles arranged such that their shape and volume are relatively stable. Particles are really packed together.

Answer 7

Solid

Question 8

Has a definite volume but does not have a definite shape. particles are free to flow

Answer 8

Liquid

Question 9

Particles are more widely spaced and suffer only occasional collisions with one another.

Answer 9

Gas

Question 10

A substance in the gas phase at a temperature lower than its critical temperature, which means that it can be condensed to a liquid by increasing the pressure on it without reducing the temperature.

Answer 10

Vapor

Question 11

Any change that occurs without altering the chemical composition of a substance

Answer 11

Physical Change

Question 12

Any substance that has a uniform and unchanging composition. a combination of two or more pure substances in which each pure substance retains its individual chemical properties

Answer 12

Mixture

Question 13

A mixture that composes of components that aren’t uniform or they have localized regions that all have different properties.
any combination of substances that does not have uniform composition and properties; a mixture of physically distinct substances with different properties
a mixture where the components of the mixture are not uniform or have localized regions with different properties. Different samples from the mixture are not identical to each other. There are always two or more phases

Answer 13

Heterogeneous Mixture

Question 14

Has the same uniform appearance and composition throughout. a mixture where the components that make up the mixture are uniformly distributed throughout the mixture. The composition of the mixture is the same throughout.

Answer 14

Homogeneous Mixture

Question 15

A homogeneous mixture composed of two or more substances.

Answer 15

Solution

Question 16

A physically distinctive form of matter, such as a solid, liquid, gas or plasma.

Answer 16

Phase

Question 17

Any of various mechanical, physical or biological operations that separate solids from fluids (liquids or gases) by adding a medium through which only the fluid can pass.

Answer 17

Filtration

Question 18

the separating of the constituents of a liquid by boiling it and then condensing the vapor that results.. Can be used to purify water or other substances, or to remove one component from a complex mixture, as when gasoline is distilled from crude oil or alcohol from a mash.

Answer 18

Distillation

Question 19

one of the essential molecules that everything else is made of. A substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical means. composed of atoms that have the same atomic number, that is, each atom has the same number of protons in its nucleus as all other atoms of that

Answer 19

Element

Question 20

a thing that is composed of two or more separate elements; a mixture. a substance formed when two or more chemical elements are chemically bonded together

Answer 20

Compound

Question 21

a usually irreversible chemical reaction involving the rearrangement of the atoms of one or more substances and a change in their chemical properties or composition, resulting in the formation of at least one new substance

Answer 21

Chemical change

Question 22

an abbreviation or short representation of a chemical element

Answer 22

Chemical symbol

Question 23

a table of the chemical elements arranged in order of atomic number, usually in rows, so that elements with similar atomic structure (and hence similar chemical properties) appear in vertical columns.

Answer 23

Periodic Table

Question 24

the name given to a horizontal row of the periodic table.

Answer 24

period

Question 25

a column of elements in the periodic table

Answer 25

Group

Question 26

Characteristic of a substance that is observed during a reaction in which the chemical composition or identity of the substance is changed

Answer 26

Chemical Property

Question 27

A process in which one or more substances, the reactants, are converted to one or more different substances, the products.
A process in which atoms of the same or different elements rearrange themselves to form a new substance. While they do so, they either absorb heat or give it off.

Answer 27

Chemical Reaction

Question 28

A substance that takes part in and undergoes change during a reaction.

Answer 28

Reactant

Question 29

A substance that is formed as a result of a chemical reaction.

Answer 29

an insoluble solid that emerges from a liquid solution.

Answer 30

Precipitate

Question 31

States that mass in an isolated system is neither created nor destroyed by chemical reactions or physical transformations. the mass of the products in a chemical reaction must equal the mass of the reactants.

Answer 31

Law of Conservation of Mass
