    • Absorption
      This is a physical process which involves the assimilation of one body by another
    • Adsorption
      Where one substance clings to the surface of another substance, withouth being assimilated by it, or having chemical reaction from it
    • Analysis
      This is where a reaction to separate a compound or substance takes place
    • Calorie
      It is simply a unit of energy
    • Catalysis
      The process of adding a catalyst to a reaction to speed up that reaction
    • Catalyst
      Substance that speed up the reaction, it remains intact and cannot be destroyed or changed by the process
    • Colloid
      A form of a suspension with some characteristics of a solution
    • Conduction
      This is how heat is transferred along with a metal
    • Convection
      Method of transferring heat through the air
    • Crystallization
      Involves negative and positive ions being packed tightly together, in order to form a crystal lattice in aparticular order to form crystals
    • Decantation
      Process of pouring a liquid from one container into another in such way as to leave the sediment behind undistributed
    • Dispersion
      A colloidal system consisting of dispersed particles and the medium in which they are suspended
    • Distillation
      Involves a process of vaporization followed by condensation.
      The difference in the boiling point of various substances is utilized to separate them
    • Distillate
      The condensed material in distillation
    • Residue
      The uncondensed material in distillation
    • Emulsifier
      Substance that allows two immiscible liquids to come together in order to combine to form a stable suspension
    • Emulsion
      This is when a suspension in both phases consists of immiscible liquids
    • Enzyme
