Chemistry Quiz on Matter and Mixtures

Anything that takes up space and has mass; can be a substance or mixture.

A form of matter where all particles are identical in composition.

The simplest form of matter, consisting of identical atoms; listed on the Periodic Table.

A substance formed from two or more elements chemically combined in fixed proportions.

Elements that are stable as pairs of atoms, like O2 and N2.

A combination of two or more substances physically combined with variable composition.

A mixture with components evenly distributed, appearing blended at a microscopic level.

A mixture where components are not evenly distributed and can be easily seen or separated.

A type of homogeneous mixture where one substance is dissolved in another, creating a uniform mixture.

Common examples include salad dressing, paint, and cereal where components remain distinct.

Characteristics observed without changing the substance's makeup.

The temperature where a solid turns to liquid, like ice melting.

The temperature at which a liquid transforms into gas, like boiling water.

Resistance of a fluid to flow; changes with temperature.

A measure of mass per unit volume; remains constant regardless of size.

The space occupied by a solid with a defined shape, calculated using specific geometric formulas.

The formula to calculate the volume of a cube or rectangular prism is $V = L \times W \times H$.

The volume of a cylinder is calculated using the formula $V = \pi r^{2} h$.

A technique to measure the volume of irregularly shaped objects by observing water level changes in a graduated cylinder.

Density is calculated as mass divided by volume: $Density = \frac{mass}{volume}$.

Properties observed by changing the chemical identity of a substance.

How easily a substance will set on fire, like burning charcoal.

How easily a substance reacts, often with acids or bases.

Reactivity of a substance with oxygen, such as iron forming rust.

Changes that affect a substance's chemical properties, forming a new substance.

Matter is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction, meaning mass remains constant.

Indicators that a chemical reaction has occurred, such as light release or odor change.

A sign of a chemical change where gas is produced during a reaction, often visible as bubbles.

A change in temperature indicating a chemical reaction, can be either heat release or absorption.

The sudden appearance of a solid in a solution during a chemical reaction, indicating a change has occurred.
