Down
- 1. burner consists of a metal tube on a base with a gas inlet at the lower end of the tube, which may have an adjusting valve
- 2. a small localized object which can be described by several physical or chemical properties, such as volume, density, or mass.
- 3. rapid oxidation of a material in the exothermic chemical process of combustion, releasing heat, light, and various reaction products.
- 4. a stable subatomic particle with a charge of negative electricity, found in all atoms and acting as the primary carrier of electricity in solids.
- 6. reaction a process where one or more substances (reactants) are transformed into different substances (products) by rearranging their atoms to form new chemical bonds.
- 7. a stable subatomic particle occurring in all atomic nuclei, with a positive electric charge equal in magnitude to that of an electron, but of opposite sign.
- 12. an uncharged atomic particle that has a mass nearly equal to that of the proton and is present in all known atomic nuclei except the hydrogen nucleus.
