Properties of matter

4. a pure substance composed of the same type of atom throughout
6. a physical property that describes how an element’s surface interacts with light
7. can be made into wires
8. an organized table of all the chemical elements grouped by properties
10. a physical property of an object allowing it to be reshaped with bending or cracking
13. elements that are solids, liquids, or gases at room temperature, dull luster, and poor conductors of heat and electricity
14. a mixture that is not uniform throughout

1. a solid formed due to a chemical reaction of liquids
2. ability of a substance to transfer heat or electrical energy
3. elements that are mostly solids at room temperature, have luster, and are good conductors of heat and electricity
5. elements with properties similar to metals and nonmetals
8. samples of matter that are made up of the same particles
9. mixture that is uniform throughout
11. metallic elements; rare because they are difficult to extract from deposits in the Earth; important components in modern technologies like magnets, batteries, and electronic devices
12. properties of matter that can be observed, measured, or changed without changing the matter itself
