Basics of Chemistry
Across
- 3. measures the acidity and alkalinity of a substance; ranges from 0-14
- 6. any substance that occupies space and has mass (weight)
- 7. oil droplets emulsified in water
- 8. a chemical combination of a single type of matter
- 14. physical combination of matter in any proportions
- 16. the separation of an atom or molecule into positive and negative ions
- 19. a change in the formor physical properties of a substance without the formation of a new substance
- 21. a solution that has a pH above 7.0; turns litmus paper from red to blue
- 22. substance often used as an emulsifier; acts as a bridge to allow oils and water to mix and form an emulsion
- 23. molecules combinations of two or more atoms of different elements united together chemically
- 24. a measure of the acidity or alkalinity of a substance
- 27. an unstable mixture of two or more immiscible substances united with the aid of a binder or emulsifier
- 29. characteristics that can only be determined by a chemical reaction and a chemical change in the substance
- 31. the science that deals with the composition, structures, and properties of matter and how matter changes under different conditions
- 36. VOCs;compounds containing carbon (organic); evaporate very quickly (volatile) and easily
- 40. water droplets emulsified in oil
- 41. the study of substances that do not contain carbon but may contain hydrogen
- 42. a solution that has pH below 7.0; turns litmus paper from blue to red
Down
- 1. two or more atoms joined chemically
- 2. chemical reactions that produce heat
- 4. water-loving
- 5. not capable of being mixed
- 9. easily evaporating
- 10. the simplest form of matter, which cannot be broken down into a simpler substance without a loss of identity
- 11. an unstable mixture of undissolved particles in a liquid
- 12. a liquid that has evaporated into a “gas-like” state but not gas
- 13. a special form of matter that behaves like gas, but unlike gases, plasma conducts electricity
- 15. substance that is dissolved in a solution
- 17. the study of substances that contain carbon
- 18. those characteristics that can be determined without a chemical reaction and that do not cause a chemical change in the substance
- 20. brings two normally incompatible materials together and bonds them into a uniform and fairly stable blend; the materials eventually separate, but very slowly over time
- 22. a stable uniform blend of two or more mixable substances
- 25. a sweet, colorless, ouly substance used as a moisturizing ingredient in cosmetic products
- 26. chemical combinations of atoms of the same element
- 28. substance that dissolves the solute in a solution
- 30. ion with a positive electrical charge
- 32. an atom or molecule that carries an electrical charge
- 33. a special type of ingredient used in nail polish dryers and skin protectants
- 34. change in the chemical & physical properties of a substance by a chemical reaction that creates a new substance or substances
- 35. ion with a negative electrical charge
- 37. the smallest particle of an element that still retains the properties of that element
- 38. oil-loving
- 39. mutually solable liquids, can be mixed together to form stable solutions, which cannot be easily separated
