composition of matter
one key term has been scrambled in each of the following statements. unscramble the term. on the lines provided, rewrite the entire statement with the unscrambled term. then find each unscrambled key term in the hidden word - puzzle.

1. a(n) ethgnesuoereo mixture has different materials that are spread out unevenly.
2. a(n) oildclo is a heterogeneous mixture whose particles never settle and are large enough to scatter light.
3. a homogeneous mixture in which particles are so small that they cannot be seen without a microscope is a(n) ruolsion.
4. a(n) sssinnopue is a liquid heterogeneous mixture in which visible particles settle.
5. a(n) ooudnmspc is a material made from atoms of two or more combined elements.
6. if all the atoms in a sample of matter are alike, that kind of matter is a(n) neemetl.
7. a(n) oogosuenehm mixture has substances which are uniformly spread out.

Explanation:

1. Unscramble "ethgnesuoereo" to "heterogeneous" which fits the description of a mixture with uneven - spread materials.
2. Unscramble "oildclo" to "colloid" which is a heterogeneous mixture with non - settling, light - scattering particles.
3. Unscramble "tuolsion" to "solution" which is a homogeneous mixture with very small particles.
4. Unscramble "ssssinnopue" to "suspension" which is a liquid heterogeneous mixture with settling visible particles.
5. Unscramble "ooudnmspc" to "compound" which is made from atoms of two or more combined elements.
6. Unscramble "neemetl" to "element" which is matter with all alike atoms.
7. Unscramble "oogosuenehm" to "homogeneous" which describes a uniformly - spread mixture.

Answer:

1. A heterogeneous mixture has different materials that are spread out unevenly.
2. A colloid is a heterogeneous mixture whose particles never settle and are large enough to scatter light.
3. A homogeneous mixture in which particles are so small that they cannot be seen without a microscope is a solution.
4. A suspension is a liquid heterogeneous mixture in which visible particles settle.
5. A compound is a material made from atoms of two or more combined elements.
6. If all the atoms in a sample of matter are alike, that kind of matter is an element.
7. A homogeneous mixture has substances which are uniformly spread out.
