17
Q

mass

A

amount of matter the object contains

18
Q

volume

A

space occupied by the object

19
Q

extensive property

A

depends on the amount of matter in a ample (mass, volume, length)

20
Q

intensive property

A

depends on the type of matter (density, color, luster)

21
Q

substance

A

matter with a uniform and definite composition

22

vapor
gaseous state of a substance that is generally a liquid of a solid ar room temp
27
phase
any part of a sample with uniform composition and proterties
28
filtration
separates a solid from a liquid in a heterogeneous mixture
29
distillation
a liquid is boiled to produce a vapor that is then condensed into a liquid
30
element
