Study Notes

Definitions in Science

Physical Properties: Observable or measurable traits that do not alter a material's composition.
Chemical Properties: Characteristics that emerge when a substance's composition changes during a chemical reaction.
Solid State: Matter with a fixed shape and volume, maintaining a consistent structure.
Liquid State: Matter with a set volume that adapts to the shape of its container, lacking a defined shape.
Gas State: Matter that has neither fixed shape nor volume, expanding to fill the entirety of its container.
Pure Substances: Composed of a single type of particle, exhibiting uniform and constant composition throughout.
Mixture: Formed from two or more pure substances, maintaining individual properties.
Heterogeneous Mixture: Combinations of materials that do not blend uniformly, presenting varied compositions and properties within the mixture.
Homogeneous Mixture: Uniform in composition and properties, such as texture and color, appearing consistent throughout.
