Down
- 1. - Refers to concepts and laws defined by Sir Isaac Newton, especially in mechanics and motion.
- 2. - Organelles found in cells, known as the powerhouse of the cell where respiration and energy production occur.
- 3. - The quantity of motion an object has, calculated as the product of its mass and velocity.
- 5. - The combining power of an element, especially in forming compounds or molecules.
- 7. - A condition in which all acting influences are balanced in a stable system, particularly in chemical reactions.
- 8. - The phase transition of a substance directly from a solid to a gas without passing through the liquid state.
- 9. - A measure of a fluid's resistance to flow.
- 12. - The ability of an object to float in a fluid due to the upward force exerted by the fluid.
