chemical

25
Type of change: a process that does not alter composition of substance
physical
26
Type of change: a process that changes composition of substance
chemical
27
logical process used to acquire new knowledge in any science
scientific method
28
4 steps to scientific method
1. problem 2. facts 3. hypothesis 4. theory (experimentation)
29
procedure for obtaining more info about a problem
experimentation
30
a hypothesis that has been tested and validated over a long period of time
theory
31
2 types of mixtures
heterogeneous | homogeneous
32
Type of mixture: contains only 1 phase which has uniform properties (well mixed)
homogeneous
33
Type of mixture: contains visibly different parts/phases (least mixed)
heterogeneous
34
what type of mixture can be seen and can have many phases
heterogeneous
35
what type of mixture cannot be seen and is only 1 phase
homogeneous
36
what type of mixture does a solution fall under
homogeneous
