- 3. A pure substance that consists of atoms with the same atomic number.
- 4. The relatively fast form of vaporization in which the energy within a liquid creates a higher pressure within within the liquid than the air pressure outside the liquid.
- 6. Anything about a substance that can be observed or easured without altering its chemical composition.
- 8. A particle consisting of two or more atoms covalently bonded together.
- 11. The measure of the amount of matter in an object.
- 12. A model that states that all physical matter exists in the form of particles.
- 13. The change of state from a liquid to a solid.
- 14. The state of matter in which particles vibrate in fixed positions, giving a substance a fixed shape and volume.

- 1. The law that states the matter can neither be created nor destroyed, but can only change form.
- 2. The change of state from a solid to a liquid.
- 5. The change in state directly from a gas to a solid without condensing first.
- 7. Any change in matter that does not alter its chemical or nuclear composition.

- 10. The change of state from a gas.
- 16. A material made of only one kind of element or compound.
- 18. The relatively slow form of vaporization in which liquid particles obtain suffitient energy to change to the gaseous state through the random collisions of particles
- 19. A mixture that does not have a uniform appearance since the combined substances are unevenly distributed.
- 25. The force of gravity acting on the matter in an object.
- 27. The state of matter in which particles are close together but ale to move around
- 28. A physical combination of two or more substances in a changeable ratio.
- 30. The change in state directly frim a solid to a gas.
