  • matter
    anything that takes up space and has weight
  • electrical conductivity
    This property describes whether a substance can conduct electricity.
  • solute
    the substance that gets dissolved in a solvent
  • particle
    an extremely tiny piece of matter
  • state
    a form that matter can exist in
  • texture
    This property describes the way an object feels when you touch it.
  • gas
    a state of matter in which the particles are very spread out and move around very quickly
  • liquid
    a state of matter in which the particles are close together but still able to move around
  • physical change
    a change that is usually reversible and does not create a new substance
  • properties of matter
    characteristics that describe how a substance looks, feels, acts, and interacts with other substances
  • thermal conductivity
    This property describes whether a substance allows heat to pass through it.
  • Law of Conservation of Mass
    The weight of matter stays the same, even when it changes states.
  • solution
    a type of mixture where one substance dissolves in another substance
  • Reflectivity
    This property describes how an object reflects light.
  • hardness
    This property describes how an object is affected when it is scratched or dented.
  • chemical reaction
    when substances undergo a chemical change and a new substance is formed
  • magnetism
    This property describes how strongly a substance attracts to magnets.
  • solubility
    This property describes whether a substance can dissolve in a solvent, such as water.
  • color
    This property is determined by how the object absorbs or reflects light.
  • mixture
    characteristics that describe how a substance looks, feels, acts, and interacts with other substances
  • solid
    a state of matter in which particles are packed very closely together
  • solvent
    the substance that can dissolve other things
  • chemical change
    a change that is not reversible and creates a new substance
  • conserved
    maintained; stayed the same
  • matter
    anything that takes up space and has weight
