Across
  1. 2. the quality or state of being natural.
  2. 6. an instrument measuring atmospheric pressure, used especially in forecasting the weather and determining altitude.
  3. 7. a consecutive sequence of issues of a periodical.
  4. 9. corresponding in size or amount to something else.
  5. 10. the degree of compactness of a substance.
  6. 11. the lowest temperature that is theoretically possible, at which the motion of particles that constitutes heat would be minimal.
  7. 15. the movement caused within a fluid by the tendency of hotter and therefore less dense material to rise, and colder, denser material to sink under the influence of gravity, which consequently results in transfer of heat
  8. 18. the degree or intensity of heat present in a substance or object, especially as expressed according to a comparative scale and shown by a thermometer or perceived by touch.
  9. 19. to be noticed or perceived; discernible able to be discerned; perceptible.
  10. 20. the ability to be predicted.
  11. 22. the spreading of something more widely.
  12. 24. a three-dimensional representation of a person or thing or of a proposed structure, typically on a smaller scale than the original.
  13. 25. the emission of energy as electromagnetic waves or as moving subatomic particles, especially high-energy particles which cause ionization.
  14. 26. the action of thinking about something in a logical, sensible way.
  15. 28. state or assert that something is the case, typically without providing evidence or proof.
  16. 29. the scale of temperature in which water freezes at 0° and boils at 100° under standard conditions.
  17. 30. continuous physical force exerted on or against an object by something in contact with it.
Down
  1. 1. a coherent, typically large body of matter with no definite shape.
  2. 3. certain or fixed; provisional
  3. 4. a substance which does not readily allow the passage of heat or sound.
  4. 5. of Conservation of Mass matter cannot be created or destroyed, but it can change forms
  5. 8. Of two quantities: such that one increases in proportion to a decrease in the other.
  6. 12. one which the researcher holds constant (controls) during an experiment
  7. 13. the process by which heat or electricity is directly transmitted through a substance when there is a difference of temperature or of electrical potential between adjoining regions, without movement of the material.
  8. 14. conformity in the application of something, typically that which is necessary for the sake of logic, accuracy, or fairness.
  9. 16. the quality of being hot; high temperature.
  10. 17. the pressure exerted by the weight of the atmosphere, which at sea level has a mean value of 101,325 pascals
  11. 21. a supposition or proposed explanation made on the basis of limited evidence as a starting point for further investigation.
  12. 23. the available body of facts or information indicating whether a belief or proposition is true or valid.
  13. 26. Question A research question is the methodological point of departure of scholarly research in both the natural and social sciences.
  14. 27. energy associated with microscopic forms of energy
