Cards in this deck (25)
- 1MineralAn inorganic solid that occurs naturally and has a definite chemical composition and structure
- 2StreakThe color of a mineral in its powder form
- 3LusterHow light is reflected from the surface of a mineral
- 4DensityThe mass of a substance divided by its volume (how heavy it feels compared to other materials)
- 5Mohs scaleRanks the hardness of minerals from 1 to 10, with 1 being softest and 10 being the hardest
- 6HardnessA minerals ability to resist scratching
- 7Color <--- wrong spellingCertain wavelengths of light are absorbed, resulting in a combination of wave lengths that reach the eye
- 86.1 When Substances ChangeWhy Did You Flip?
- 9Physical ChangeA change that does not result in a new substance being produced
- 10BoilingA change of state where a liquid is heated and changes to a gas within the liquid
- 11Chemical ChangeA change that results in a new substance being formed
- 12CondensationA change of state where a gas is cooled and forms a liquid
- 13ContractionA decrease in size
- 14DepositionA change of state from gas to solid
- 15Endothermic (I Don't Know What It Is) Just Added It To Make It Look CoolDescribes a process that absorbs energy from the surroundings
- 16EvaporationThe change of state where a liquid changes to a gas at the surface of the liquid
- 17Exothermic [Another One]Describes a process that gives off energy in the form of heat, light or sound
- 18ExpansionAn increase in size
- 19FreezingThe change of state from liquid to a solid
- 20MeltingThe change of state when a solid is heated and forms a liquid
- 21PrecipitateA solid formed during a chemical change
- 22SolidificationThe change of state from liquid to solid
