Across
- 2. a process or reaction that releases energy from the system to its surroundings, usually in the form of heat or light.
- 3. a change which forms one or more new substances.
- 6. the process of producing crystals from a solution by slowly evaporating the solvent.
- 8. a substance that cannot be split up into anything simpler by chemical reactions. All the atoms in an element are the same.
- 11. a substance that does not have anything else in it.
- 12. two or more atoms joined together.
- 15. chemicals that form new substances during a chemical reaction.
- 17. a material which lets energy flow through it easily.
- 20. separating things that have not dissolved from a liquid. The liquid is passed through a filter to do this.
- 23. a burning reaction, when a fuel combines with oxygen and releases energy.
- 25. liquids that will not stay mixed together.
- 28. anything that stores energy that can be converted into heat energy, e.g. fossil fuels and nuclear fuels.
- 29. a characteristic of matter that may be observed or measured without changing he chemical (e.g. flexible/rigid, hard/soft, malleable, magnetic…)
- 30. the solid that has dissolved in a liquid to make a solution.
- 31. a new chemical formed in a chemical reaction.
- 33. the liquid that runs through filer paper.
- 35. a prefix meaning ‘two’. This is something used in compound names to indicate that there are two of a particular element, e.g. carbon dioxide.
- 36. the solid bits that are trapped by filter paper.
- 37. when a solid has dissolved in a liquid.
