  2. 5. a characteristic of a substance that does not involve a chemical change, such as density, color, or hardness

  1. 1. a property of matter that describes a substance's ability to participate in chemical reactions
  2. 2. a change of matter from one form to another without a change in chemical properties
  3. 4. the state of matter in which the volume and shape of a substance are fixed
  4. 7. the state of matter that has a definite volume but not a definite shape
  5. 8. building blocks of matter because they combine with one another to make may different materials
  6. 10. a state of matter that starts as a gas and then becomes ionized; it consists of free-moving ions and electrons, it takes on an electric charge, and its prperties differ from those of a solid, liquid, or gas
  7. 12. a form of matter that does not have a definite volume or shape
  8. 13. matter that contains two or more pure substances
  9. 15. the amount of force exerted per unit area of a surface
