Does this even matter?
Going through the motions?
The right stuff
Spacing out
Mass, Volume, Density...
100
The three commons states of matter.
What are solids, liquids, and gases?
100
All matter is made out of these incredibly tiny particles.
What are atoms?
100
This property measures HOW MUCH matter is in an object.
What is mass?
100
The property measures how much SPACE an object takes up.
What is volume?
100
This property of matter measures how "tightly packed" an objects matter is.
What is Density?
200
For anything to be matter, it must do these two things.
What are have mass and take up space?
200
My particles hold together and hardly move. I have a definite shape and volume. I am the ___________ state of matter.
What is solid?
200
We measure mass using this metric unit.
What are grams?
200
We measure volume using these metric units (name at least one).
What are milliliters (mL) and cubic centimeters (cm^3)?
200
The math formula for finding density (hint: it uses two other properties of matter).
What is mass divided by volume? (mass / volume = density)
300
What step do scientists take before they review reference materials when they are solving a problem?
Analyze the data.
Define the problem.
Conduct experiments.
Explain the problem.
*Daily Double*
What is define the problem?
300
My particles spread apart very easily and quickly. I don't have a definite shape, and my volume can change as well. I am the _________ state of matter.
What is gas (gaseous)?
300
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)
300
You use this tool to measure the volume of a liquid.
* Daily Double*
What is a graduated cylinder? (A beaker also works!)
300
Who is the most handsome scientist of all time?
A. Dr. Jeff Vinokur
B. Bill Nye the Science Guy
C. Mr. Holtz
D. All of the above, they are all pretty great!
What is letter C of course!!
400
What is a control variable? Use the butter lab experiment to explain your answer.
What is any factor in an experiment that is kept the same so it doesn't not affect the results?
The plastic bag for the butter, the scale
400
My atoms stay together, but can also move around. I don't have my own shape, but I have volume. I can be poured. I am the ___________ state of matter.
What is liquid?
400
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.
400
Jack has a beaker of water that measures 100 mL. He puts a rock in the liquid, and the volume now measures 175 mL. Jack thinks the rock's volume is 175 mL.
What's Jack's error.
What is Jack should have subtracted 100 from 175 to get 75 ml?
400
Physical properties can only be measured by changing the matter. True or false
What is false? You can use your 5 senses to observe matter without changing it.
500
What form can matter take? Energy, solid, force, or light?
What is solid?
500
If I add heat to particles, how will those particles begin to change?
The particles will move quicker and will begin to spread apart. If you add heat, the particles do more 'work.'
"Heat is work and work is heat."
500
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!
500
What is an outcome variable? Provide an example using the butter lab experiment model.
What is the final result, effect or response that you observe in an experiment? The butter melted, the mass stayed the same.
500
The definition of mass in a solid, liquid or gas is?
What is the amount of matter in an object?
