Across
- 3. _____________________ theory states that when suitable particles of the reactant hit each other, only a certain amount of collisions result in a perceptible or notable change.
- 5. The topic of chemistry concerned with the rates (speed) of chemical reactions.
- 10. A quantity that expresses heat and cold. It is the manifestation of thermal energy, present in all matter, due to the kinetic energy of particles.
- 12. The reaction ______ is the speed at which a chemical reaction takes place.
- 14. Chemical _________________ is the process or effect of simplifying a single chemical entity into two or more fragments.
- 16. Substances consumed in the course of a chemical reaction.
- 17. A small localized object to which can be ascribed several physical or chemical properties such as volume, density or mass.
- 18. The atoms in molecules of this type of solids are arranged randomly. It literally means 'without shape'.
- 19. A chemical that lowers the activation energy of a reaction, thereby speeding it up without actually being changed by it
- 20. An electrically neutral group of two or more atoms held together by chemical bonds.
Down
- 1. a non-toxic brittle metal, not very useful. When it is 10 degrees above the temperature of this room, it will melt.
- 2. one of the four fundamental states of matter (the others being liquid, gas and plasma).
- 4. A scientific instrument used to separate and measure spectral components of a physical phenomenon.
- 6. The ___________________energy of an object is the energy that it possesses due to its motion. It is defined as the work needed to accelerate a body of a given mass from rest to its stated velocity.
- 7. One of the two known elements that are liquid at room temperature. The other is mercury.
- 8. The species formed from chemical reactions.
- 9. The atoms in molecules of this type of solids are arranged in an orderly, predictable way
- 11. A substance or compound added to a system to cause a chemical reaction.
- 13. A state of decreased physiological activity in an animal, usually by a reduced body temperature and metabolic rate.
- 15. A measure of the randomness of a system.
