What is the definition for a solid?
|
substance that retains shape: a substance that resists change in shape, unlike a liquid or gas
|
|
|
What is the definition for gas?
|
substance such as air: a substance that is neither a solid nor a liquid at ordinary temperatures and has the ability to expand infinitely, e.g. air
|
|
|
What is the definition of liquid?
|
flowing substance: a substance in a condition in which it flows, that is a fluid at room temperature and atmospheric pressure, and whose shape but not volume can be changed
|
|
|
What is the definition for density ?
|
how full area is: the concentration of people or things within an area in relation to its size
|
|
|
What is the definition for hardness?
|
firmness, solidity, and compactness: the state or quality of being firm, solid, and compact
|
|
|
What is the definition for melting point?
|
temperature at which something melts: the temperature at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid form
|
|
|
What is the definition for boiling point?
|
temperature at which liquid boils: the temperature at which a heated liquid turns to gas, e.g. 100 or 212 for water at sea level
|
|
|
What is the definition for Solubility?

|
What is the definition for Combustion?
|
chemical reaction: a chemical process in which a substance reacts vigorously with oxygen to produce heat and light, seen as a flame
|
|
|
What is the definition for corrosion?
|
destruction by chemical action: a process by which something, especially a metal, is destroyed progressively by chemical action, as iron is when it rusts
|
|
|
What is the definition for rusting?
|
reddish brown coating on metal: a reddish brown coating of iron oxide on the surface of iron or steel that forms when the metal is exposed to air and moisture
|
|
|
What is the definition for Chemistry?
|
study of transformation of matter: a branch of science dealing with the structure, composition, properties, and reactive characteristics of substances, especially at the atomic and molecular levels.
|
|
|
What is the definition of Mixtures?
|
substance formed without chemical reaction: a substance consisting of two or more substances that have been combined without chemical bonding taking place
