SCIENCE
Across
- 5. Force The weakest force, holding nonmetals together with intermolecular attractions.
- 7. Process A phase change that absorbs heat, like melting ice.
- 12. A solid’s resistance to scratching, as seen in diamonds.
- 14. A gas transforms directly into a solid without passing through the liquid phase.
- 15. This state of matter has a definite volume but takes the shape of its container.
- 19. Network Bond A strong bond forming solid structures like diamonds and quartz.
- 20. Condensate A recently discovered state of matter formed from extreme cold fermions repelling each other.
- 22. The process where gas particles lose energy and become liquid.
- 25. The ability of metals to be drawn into wires, like copper.
- 29. The ability of metals to be hammered into thin sheets without breaking.
Down
- 1. Change A reaction where a new substance with different properties is formed.
- 2. Solid A type of solid with no definite crystalline structure, like glass.
- 3. Highly energetic particles stripped of electrons, commonly found in the Sun.
- 4. Solid A solid with a highly ordered repeating pattern of atoms.
- 6. Point The temperature where a liquid’s vapor pressure equals external pressure.
- 8. Condensate A state of matter occurring at near absolute zero where atoms act as one.
- 9. Bond The force responsible for the malleability and conductivity of metals.
- 10. A phase change where a solid turns directly into a gas.
- 11. Change A transformation that does not alter a substance’s chemical identity.
- 13. Process A phase change that releases heat, like freezing water.
- 16. The process where particles spread from high to low concentration, like perfume in air.
- 17. A measure of a liquid’s resistance to flow, often observed in honey.
- 18. Point The specific temperature at which a solid turns into a liquid.
- 21. Action The ability of a liquid to flow against gravity in narrow spaces.
- 23. A process where liquid molecules escape into the gas phase at the surface.
- 24. Tension A liquid property causing water droplets to form spheres.
- 26. The state of matter with definite shape and volume.
- 27. Bond A force where electrons are transferred between a metal and a nonmetal.
- 28. It has neither definite shape nor volume, expanding freely in all directions.
