The purpose of simple machines is to 

Make doing work easier

100

When a substance is dissolved that means that

The particles are broken down into such small pieces you cannot see them anymore

100

The scientific method is

A series of steps that scientists go through when performing an experiment

A wheel and axle with a rope or chain wrapped around it used to lift objects up and down is

A pulley

A mixture is 

A combination of substances mixed together but CAN be separated

200

Using our five senses is called

Observation

A compound machine is

A combination of two or more simple machines

300

A solution is

A combination of substances that cannot be separated

300

An independent variable is

The variable in the experiment that "I" change

400

A door stop is an example of which simple machine

A wedge

400

Examples of solids that do not dissolve in water

rocks, aluminum foil, wood chips, etc. 

400

The dependent variable is 

The variable that changes as a result of the independent variable

500

A bar supported by a fulcrum is which simple machine

A lever

500

When dissolving substances in hot water, the hot water causes the particles to 

Heat up quickly, causing it to dissolve faster than cold water
