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 heavy an object is for its size because of how "tightly packed" the matter is inside it.

What is relative 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.

What are milliliters (mL)??

200

Students have a container of water and several objects and will help them to discover if the objects can do this.

What is sink or float?

300
The temperature where a solid turns into a liquid because of heat.
What is the melting point?
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?

300

You use this science tool to measure an object's mass.

What is a triple beam balance? 

300

You use this science tool to measure the volume of a liquid.

What is a graduated cylinder? (A beaker also works!)

300

Liquid A has a density of 2 grams per milliliter. Liquid B has a density of 4 grams per milliliter. Which one will sink to the bottom?

What is Liquid B? (More dense matter sinks below less dense matter; lighter matter rises above denser matter)

400
The temperature where a liquid turns into a gas because of heat.
What is the boiling point?
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
True or False: When you pour a can of coke into a glass, the volume changes.
False - The coke still takes up the same space, so its volume is still the same. The SHAPE of the liquid changed.
400

A candy bar has a density of 0.95 g/mL. Water has a density of 1.0 g/mL. Will the candy bar sink or float?

What is float? The candy bar has a lighter density than the water, so it rises above the more dense water.

500

What is the process called when a gas changes into a liquid?

What is condensation?

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

If a graduated cylinder has water at 50 mL and a rock is placed in it raising the water to 70 mL, what is the volume of the rock?

What is 20 mL?

500

Choose one of the following objects that would most likely sink in water: a cork, a plastic bottle, a pumice stone, an orange, or a metal nail.

What is a metal nail?
