Textbook Question

Chapter 1, Problem 1QP

Match the key terms with the following descriptions.

(a) a measure of the quantity of matter

(b) a characteristic of a substance involving the possible transformations that the substance can undergo to produce a new substance

(d) a pure substance that cannot be broken down into simpler stable substances in a chemical reaction

(e) ï¬�le capacity to do work or to transfer heat

(f) a characteristic of a substance that can be observed without changing its composition

(g) ï¬�le physical state in which matter has no characteristic shape but takes the shape of the ï¬�lled portion of its container

(h) the ratio of the mass of a substance to its volume

(i) a mixture with uniform composition

(j) ï¬�le physical state of matter Characterized by a ï¬�xed shape and low compressibility

Definition Definition Substance that constitutes everything in the universe. Matter consists of atoms, which are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction: solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).
