    What Makes Substances Different?

    • All molecules of the same substance are identical.
    • Different substances have different molecules.
    • The properties of a substance are determined by its molecules.
    • Different molecules have different properties.

    Mixing Solids and Liquids

    • Some solids dissolve in water, while others do not.
    • When solids dissolve in a liquid, the solid molecules attach to the liquid molecules, spreading evenly.
    • When solids do not dissolve in a liquid, the solid molecules remain clustered together.
