Front	Back
Boiling Point	The temperature at which a liquid substance goes through a phase change into the gas state.
Density	The amount of mass in a certain volume. Example: g/mL or g/cm³. The density of a material varies with temperature and pressure.
Insoluble	The property at which one substance (solute) will not dissolve into another (solvent). Example: oil and water.
Melting Point	The temperature at which a substance goes through the phase change from solid to liquid.
Solid	A state of matter in which molecules have a defined shape. Atoms are arranged in a pattern.
Solubility	The ability of a substance (solute) to dissolve in another substance (solvent) to make a uniform solution. Example: sugar (solute) dissolving in water (solvent) to make sugar water.
Solute	The substance you are trying to dissolve into another. Example: sugar (solute) dissolving in water (solvent) to make sugar water.
Sublimation	The process of a substance going from the solid phase to the gas phase without passing through an intermediate liquid phase
Freezing point	The point at which a substance goes through a phase change from liquid to solid.
Evaporation	A type of vaporization of a liquid that occurs only on the surface, the liquid goes through a phase change to a gas.
Solvent	The substance (generally a liquid) you are trying to dissolve something into. Example: sugar (solute) dissolving in water (solvent) to make sugar water.
