This property measures HOW MUCH matter is in an object.
What is mass?
The test of this property would have you seeing if two pieces of metal have an attraction.
What is magnetism?
The amount of matter in a substance is its ____ and the amount of space it takes up is its ____.
Mass, volume
We measure mass using this metric unit.
What are grams (g) or kilograms (kg)?
We measure volume using these metric units.
What are milliliters (mL).
The test of this property could have you drinking some salty water if you use the wrong substance in your lemonade!
What is solubility?
What is happening to the particles as a result of a solid turning into a liquid because of heat?
The particles start out moving in place and in a pattern, then when heat is applied the particles start to move around faster.
You use this tool to measure an object's mass.
What is a balance? (Also accepting 'scale,' but technically that measures weight - science is weirdly specific, but it'll make sense if you spend enough time with it)
When you have a fever, your thermometer doesn't ACTUALLY measure your heat, it measures your....?
What is your atoms' average kinetic energy?
The temperature of an object is a measure of what?
True or False: Mass and Weight are the same thing.
FALSE!! Mass is a measure of matter, but weight is a measure of gravity pulling on an object. Consider this - if I send you to the moon, your mass does not magically change. Mass stays the same, but the moon's weaker gravity makes you weigh less.
A test of this property could leave you feeling electrified!
Solubility is a measure of this.
How well a substance dissolves in a liquid.
If I remove heat from particles, how will those particles begin to change?
The particles will move slower and will begin to pull together to form a solid.
If you cut an apple into slices, has the mass of the apple changed?
The mass has not changed. Even though it has been cut into pieces, if you put them back together, the mass would be the same as when you started!
What states of matter have a definite volume?
Solids and liquids.
What is the difference between observable and measurable properties?
An observable property is something you use your eyes or other senses to measure. A measurable property requires a science tool to measure it to a standard unit.
