Across
  1. 3. a formula for calculating the volume of a rectangular object
  2. 6. ________(of matter): a characteristic of a substance that distinguishes it from other substances; a way to classify and categorize matter
  3. 7. the ability to burn
  4. 9. the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a gas
  5. 10. the ability to reflect light
  6. 11. the ability to rust
  7. 13. the substance that something dissolves into
  8. 14. the ability to disperse evenly into another substance
  9. 15. how much space something takes up
  10. 19. a change in which a new substance is formed (a gas or a solid precipitate); often accompanied by a change in color or odor, i.e., burning, rusting, rotting, etc. (flammability, toxicity, oxidation, etc.) The new substance may be a gas or a solid precipitate
  11. 21. responsiveness to magnetic forces (i.e., behaving like a liquid in the solid state)
  12. 22. the main unit for measuring mass/weight; can be multiplied into kilograms or divided into milligrams; measured using a balance
  13. 24. the main unit for measuring volume; can be divided into milliliters; measured using a graduated cylinder (displacement) or the length x width x height formula
  14. 25. a combination of two or more different substances in which the substances keep their identities; can be separated by physical methods (i.e., taking them apart)
  15. 28. a characteristic of matter that can be observed or measured directly (size, shape, color, texture, etc.)
  16. 29. the phase/state of matter with no definite shape and no definite volume; takes the size and shape of its container
  17. 32. the substance that dissolves into the solvent
  18. 33. to become evenly dispersed into another substance such that it seems to disappear
  19. 35. the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a solid
  20. 38. the ability to transfer electricity
  21. 39. a characteristic that can be seen when a substance undergoes a chemical change
  22. 40. state/_____ (of matter): the size and shape of molecules/particles in a substance (determined by the amount of energy in the substance, as well as whether energy is flowing in or out)
  23. 42. a tool for measuring mass/weight
  24. 43. the phase/state of matter with a definite volume, but no definite shape; takes the shape of its container
  25. 44. anything that has weight and takes up space
  26. 47. a solid substance that has been separated from a liquid during a chemical process
  27. 48. a one-meter-long stick (like the one we used as a flagpole during the fun run)
Down
  1. 1. the side of a one-foot ruler that measures centimeters
  2. 2. the ability to transfer heat
  3. 4. the ability to stretch without changing shape
  4. 5. the temperature at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid
  5. 8. a new material formed when two metals are mixed
  6. 12. the amount of water moved by an object dropped into it
  7. 16. how easily something can be bent or dented
  8. 17. the ability to bend without breaking
  9. 18. the fact that the amount of matter stays the same even when it undergoes physical or chemical changes—“Matter can be neither created nor destroyed.”
  10. 20. molecule/________: chunks of atoms bonded together; the smallest unit of matter
  11. 23. how much energy (heat) is in a substance
  12. 26. how tightly packed the molecules/particles are in a substance
  13. 27. also called “weight”; the amount of “stuff” that is in something
  14. 29. a tool for measuring volume using the displacement of water
  15. 30. the mixture of the solvent and solute; a mixture that has the same composition throughout because its parts are mixed evenly (usually liquids; sometimes gases)
  16. 31. a chart that shows the freezing, melting, and boiling points of a substance
  17. 34. the phase/state of matter with a definite shape and a definite volume
  18. 36. a change in which no new substance is made (cutting, dissolving, and stretching)
  19. 37. the main unit for measuring length, width, and height; can be multiplied into kilometers or divided into millimeters; measured using a metric ruler or meter stick
  20. 41. __________ capacity: the inability to conduct heat or electricity
  21. 45. the degree to which something is poisonous
  22. 46. a force that makes things move; does not have weight or take up space
