Solid
Touching, orderes, vibrating around fixed position
1 of 31
Liquid
Touching, random arrangement, moving around fixed position
2 of 31
Gas
Spaced out, random arrangement, moving quickly in random directions
3 of 31
Chemical change
two or more substances react to make a new product. Result is irreversible
4 of 31
Physical change
reaction that is a change in state, reversible and no new product is formed
5 of 31
Sublimation
Some solids change from solid to vapour without melting. Iodine, CO2
6 of 31
Freezing/solidification
Liquid to solid at freezing point
7 of 31
Condensation/ liquefaction
Vapour to liquid over range of temperatures
8 of 31
Melting
Solid to liquid. Melting point and freezing point of a substance are the same
9 of 31
Evaporation
Liquid to gas over a range of temperatures
10 of 31
Boiling
Liquid to gas at a definite temperature (boiling point)

Isotopes
Atoms of the same element thathave same numbers of protons but different numbers of neutrons
21 of 31
Ions
Atoms gain or lose electrons. If they lose they become positive, if they gain they become negative
22 of 31
Relative Atomic Mass
Mean mass of an atom compared to 1/12 of the mass of carbon-12
23 of 31
Relative Formula Mass
Addition of relative atomic masses of elements in a formula

Solute
substance that dissolves
25 of 31
Solvent
liquid in which solute dissolves
26 of 31
Saturated solution
a solution in which nothing more will dissolve
27 of 31
Filtration
separates insoluble substance from a solvent
28 of 31
Residue
solid left behind in filter paper after filtration
29 of 31
Evaporation
process during which a substance changes from liquid to gas
30 of 31
Solubility
A measure of how much solute can dissolve in a solvent at a given temperature
