Create
solution
a well mixed mixture
has same properties through out
smaller particles that disolve
ex salt water
suspention
a mixture where particles are seen
particles can be separated by
settling
filtering
solvent
part of solution in the largest amount
it dissolves other substances
water is universal sulvent
a solution can be combination of gas solid liquid
colloid
mixture with small undissolved particles that don;t settle out
particles settle light beams
ex mayonnaise, shaving cream, jello
enzyme
speeds up digestion
cadalist
speeds up reactionin body
fore

mass
the measure of the inertia of an object the amout of mater in an object
friction
to things rubbing together
gravity
force that holds us to the ground
work
exerting a force on an object casuing object to move some distance
work=forceXdistance
energy
the abiltiy to do work

potential energy
energy building up
thermal energy
light radiant energy
thermal engery
total energy of the particles move faster temp rises
thermal energy increases particles move faster temp rises
geothermal heat produced in earths core
chemical energy
potential energy stored in chembonds
gravitational potential energy
= mass x gravitational acceleration x height
work done to lift it
nuclear energy
nuclear energy to electro magnectic energy (light) sun energy to chemical potential energy splits atoms
crest
