16
Q

Substance

A

Form of matter with specific chemical composition & distinct observable properties

17
Q

Homogeneous mixture

A

Composition is uniform

18
Q

Heterogeneous mixture

A

Composition is not uniform

19
Q

Physical process

A

Process in which state of matter changes but identity of matter does not

20
Q

Physical properties

A

Observed & measured w/out den n changing changing identity of substance (color, melting point, boiling point)

21
Q

Chemical properties

A

Substance must be converted into other substance to study properties

22
Q

Extensive properties

A

Depends on amount of matter (mass & volume), additive

23
Q

Intensive properties

A

Do not depend on amount, not additive I will not change size or quantity (density, melting point, boiling point)
