Solutions
Mass - correct Answer-Amount of matter in an object.
Matter - correct Answer-Anything that takes up space and has mass.
Volume - correct Answer-Amount of space an object occupies.
Atom - correct Answer-Building block of matter.
Physical Property - correct Answer-Property that can be observed and measured
without changing the substance.
Chemical Property - correct Answer-Property that can only be observed by changing the
type of substance.
Mixture - correct Answer-The product of the random distribution of one substance
through another without any chemical reaction, as distinct from a compound.
Compound - correct Answer-Made of one or more elements bonded together.
Substance - correct Answer-Particular kind of matter with uniform properties.
