The task involves filling in the blanks with appropriate terms related to the properties of matter. Let's solve it step by step:
---
Section 1: Physical Properties of Matter
These are characteristics that can be observed or measured without changing the identity of the substance.
1.
A characteristic or description of a substance that may help you to identify it (does not involve a substance becoming a new substance)
-
Answer:
Physical Property
2.
Measure of the resistance of a solid to being scratched or dented
-
Answer:
Hardness
3.
The ability to be hammered into thin sheets (alternative: brittle)
-
Answer:
Malleability
4.
The ability to be pulled into wires
-
Answer:
Ductility
5.
The temperature at which the substances change state
-
Answer:
Melting Point (or
Boiling Point, depending on the context, but typically melting point is more common for solids)
6.
Solid form of many minerals in which you can see a definite structure of cubes or blocks with a regular pattern
-
Answer:
Crystal Lattice
7.
The ability of a substance to dissolve in a solvent, such as water
-
Answer:
Solubility
8.
How easily a liquid flows
-
Answer:
Viscosity
9.
The amount of matter for unit volume of that matter
-
Answer:
Density
---
Section 2: Chemical Properties of Matter
These are characteristics that describe how a substance reacts or changes into a new substance.
10.
The behavior of a substance as it becomes a new substance
-
Answer:
Chemical Property
11.
The ability of a substance to react with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide
-
Answer:
Flammability (or
Combustibility)
12.
The ability of a substance to react with an acid
-
Answer:
Acid Reactivity (or simply
Reactivity with Acids)
13.
The substance will produce rust
-
Answer:
Corrosiveness (or
Tendency to Rust)
---
Final Answer
Here is the completed list:
1.
Physical Property
2.
Hardness
3.
Malleability
4.
Ductility
5.
Melting Point
6.
Crystal Lattice
7.
Solubility
8.
Viscosity
9.
Density
10.
Chemical Property
11.
Flammability
12.
Acid Reactivity
13.
Corrosiveness
Boxed Final Answer:
\[
\boxed{
\text{Physical Property, Hardness, Malleability, Ductility, Melting Point, Crystal Lattice, Solubility, Viscosity, Density, Chemical Property, Flammability, Acid Reactivity, Corrosiveness}
}
\]
