Which is NOT a state of matter: solid, liquid, gas, energy? | Energy |
Which is NOT a type of energy: kinetic, liquid, potential, chemical? | Liquid |
The Law of Conservation of Matter states that matter: | Cannot be created or destroyed |
How is energy related to temperature? | Directly |
Reactions that give off heat. | Exothermic reactions |
An amorphous solid is a(n): | Solid that flows |
Viscosity is a measurement of: | The "thickness" of a liquid |
As you climb a mountain, what happens to air pressure? | It decreases |
Gas molecules move... | Rapidly and randomly |
Which type of property can be observed without changing the substance? | Physical |
What type of change (generally) cannot be reversed? | Chemical |
When writing a chemical reaction, what does the arrow point towards? | Products |
A substance that cannot be separated into simpler substances by any means is a(n): | Element |
A substance that contains 2 or more elements combined in fixed proportions is a(n): | Compound |

In significant figures, trailing zeros: | Count with a decimal present |
In significant figures, leading zeros: | Never count |
In significant figures, captive zeros: | Always count |
In significant figures, non-zero numbers; | Always count |
