|
|
Term
|
Definition
| a gaseous state of a substance that is a liquid or a solid at room temperature |
|
|
Term
| What is the difference between a chemical change and a physical change? |
|
Definition
| a chemical change causes a new composition to be formed which changes the substance's properties while a physical change does not cause a change in properties because the composition stays the same. |
|
|
Term
| What is the difference between intensive and extensive properties? |
|
Definition
| Intensive property=a physical property that remains the same no matter how much of a substance is present, Extensive property=a physical property that depends on the amount of substance present |
|
|
Term
| What is the difference between a mixture and a pure substance? |
|
Definition
| a mixture is two or more substances that are combined together but still retain their chemical properties, while a pure substance is one substance that is not combined with any other substance |
|
|
Term
