2. State of matter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/State_of_matter

   State of matter. In physics, a state of matter is one of the distinct forms in which matter can exist. Four states of matter are observable in everyday life: solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. Many intermediate states are known to exist, such as liquid crystal, and some states only exist under extreme conditions, such as Bose–Einstein ...

3. Physical change - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physical_change

   Physical changes occur when objects or substances undergo a change that does not change their chemical composition. This contrasts with the concept of chemical change in which the composition of a substance changes or one or more substances combine or break up to form new substances. In general a physical change is reversible using physical ...

4. Phase (matter) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_(matter)

   Chemistry. In the physical sciences, a phase is a region of material that is chemically uniform, physically distinct, and (often) mechanically separable. In a system consisting of ice and water in a glass jar, the ice cubes are one phase, the water is a second phase, and the humid air is a third phase over the ice and water.

5. Outline of physical science - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_physical_science

   Physics – natural and physical science could involve the study of matter [4] and its motion through space and time, along with related concepts such as energy and force. [5] More broadly, it is the general analysis of nature, conducted in order to understand how the universe behaves. [a][6][7] Branches of physics.

6. Chemical substance - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_substance

   A chemical substance is a unique form of matter with constant chemical composition and characteristic properties. [1][2] Chemical substances may take the form of a single element or chemical compounds. If two or more chemical substances can be combined without reacting, they may form a chemical mixture. [3]

7. Isothermal microcalorimetry - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isothermal_microcalorimetry

   Calorimetry is the science of measuring the heat of chemical reactions or physical changes. Calorimetry is performed with a calorimeter.. Isothermal microcalorimetry (IMC) is a laboratory method for real-time, continuous measurement of the heat flow rate (μJ/s = μW) and cumulative amount of heat (J) consumed or produced at essentially constant temperature by a specimen placed in an IMC ...
