Across
- 4. how much "stuff" (mass) is packed into a certain amount of space (volume)
- 6. the amount of force exerted per unit area of a surface
- 7. a group of atoms that are held together by chemical forces; a molecule is the smallest unit of a compound that keeps all the properties of that compound
- 10. a form of matter that does not have a definite volume or shape
- 12. a measure of the amount of matter in an object
- 14. anything that has mass and takes up space
- 15. the total kinetic energy of a substance's particles
- 16. the state of matter that has a definite volume but not a definite shape
- 17. a substance made up of atoms of two or more different elements joined by chemical bonds
- 18. the smallest unit of an element that maintains the properties of that element
Down
- 1. a sample of matter, either a single element or a single compound, that has definite chemical and physical properties
- 2. the change of a substance from one physical state to another
- 3. a substance that cannot be separated or broken down into simpler substances by chemical means
- 5. a system for arranging the chemical elements
- 8. the amount of space that an object takes up, or occupies
- 9. a measure of how hot (or cold) something is; specifically, a measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in an object
- 11. the attractive force that holds atoms, ions, or molecules together, formed by the redistribution of valence electrons (outer shell electrons) to achieve a more stable, lower-energy state
- 13. a state of matter that holds a definite shape and volume
