Front 12

gradation

Back 12

small lines in between regular #s

Front 13

place of significance

Back 13

you can find the place of significance by dividing the gradation/10

Front 14

precision vs accuracy

Back 14

precision- you get the same thing over and over repeatedly

accuracy- you get an a for hitting in the right spot

Front 15

matter

Back 15

anything that has mass and takes up space

Front 16

mass

Back 16

measurement of the matter in an object

Front 17

volume

Back 17

the amount of space the matter occupies

Front 18

density

Back 18

the material in a given volume

Front 19

substancedensi

Back 19

a single kind of matter that is pure meaning that it always has a specific makeup or composition and a specific set of properties

Front 20

element

Back 20

pure substance that can not be broken down into any other susbtances by chemical or physical neds

Front 21

compound

Back 21

pure substance made of 2 or more elements chemically combined in a set radio (co2)

Front 22

mixture

Back 22

made up of 2 or more substances, elements, compounds, or both- they are together in the same place but are not chemically combined

Front 23

homogeneous mixture

Back 23

so evenly mixed that you cant see all the different parts

Front 24

heterogeneous mixture

Back 24

you can only see the different parts

Front 25

physical change

Back 25

change that alters the form or appearance of matter but does not make any substance in the matter into a different substance

Front 26

chemical change

Back 26

the change in matter that produces one or more new substances

Front 27

physical property

Back 27

characteristic of a pure substance that can be observed without changing it into another substance

Front 28

chemical property

Back 28

a characteristic of a pure substance that describes its ability to change into different substances

Front 29

energy

Back 29

the ability to do work or cause change

thermal energy

Back 31

the total energy of all of the particles in an object

Front 32

kinetic energy

Back 32

energy of matter in motion

a rolling bowling ball going to hit down the pins

Front 33

potential energy

Back 33

the energy an object has because of its positions

when a diver climbs up to a diving board
