This is the amount of matter in a substance, and doesn't change based on location.
What is Mass?
The amount of space something occupies
What is Volume?
This is a group of characteristics that scientists can measure without changing the substance.
What are Physical Properties?
The average speed (and energy) of the molecules in a substance.
What is temperature?
This variable is the one that scientists change. IT is usually found on the left side of a data table and on the X-axis of a graph.`
What is the Independent Variable?
The force of gravitational pull on the matter in a substance.
What is Weight?
The amount of matter in a certain amount of space
This is a group of characteristics that describe a substance's ability to change into a new substance.
What are Chemical Properties?
This shows the temperatures at which a substance goes from a solid to a liquid and liquid to gas, or the reverse.
What is a phase change graph?
This variable is the one that the scientist are measuring, it responds to the change! It is usually found on the right side of a data table and on the Y axis of a graph.
What is the Dependent Variable?
This is what happens to mass and weight if you increase the amount of something in your hands.
What is increase?
When substance A floats on top of substance B.
What is substance A is less dense/substance B is more dense
This is the group of properties that do not depend on the amount of substance - these will never change.
What are Intensive Properties?
This is when the substance is changing from liquid to solid.
What is freezing point?
If you go to a new location, such as space, another planet or a moon, this will change.
What is Weight
the density of a substance with a mass of 50g and a volume of 25cm3
What is 2g/cm3?
These are properties that depend on the amount of the substance you have.
What are Extensive Properties?
This is when the motion of the molecules of is the greatest.
What is between 4 and 5?
This is an extensive property (it does depend on the amount you have) but it does not change based on location.
What is Mass?
the substance on the graph below with a mass of 96.6 and a volume of 5cm3?
What is Gold?
This property of matter describes a substance's ability to dissolve in water.
What is Solubility?
These show phase changes.
What are the flat parts of the phase change graph?
