Dense and Denser
100
This unit is commonly used to measure mass
What are grams
100
Measurement of the amount of space that matter takes up...
Volume
100
This measurement tells scientists how much space an object occupies
What is volume?
100
Observable and measurable features of matter are known as...
Properties
100
This instrument measures the volume of a liquid.
What is a graduated cylinder?
200
This has mass and volume
what is matter?
200
Words that describe matter...
What are properties
200
This method is used to find the volume of an irregular shaped object by measuring how much the water level rises when the object is submerged.
What is water displacement
200
Oil floats on water because it has this property compared to water.
What is a lower density?
200
Which two solids on this list would float in water?
Cork and Oak Wood
300
An object has a mass of 20 grams and a volume of 10 mL. This is the density.
What is 2 g/mL
300
An object with a density greater that 1 g/mL will generally do this in water.
What is float?
300
We did this to show that more dense substances are "stronger/thicker" than less dense substances.
Layering liquids
300
The two properties of matter that you need a scale to measure...
Mass
Weight
300
These are density cubes. Which substance pictured here is the most dense?
Tungsten
400
The water level rises from 25 mL to 40mL when a rock is submerged. This is the rock's volume.
What is 15mL
400
Measurement of how much matter is in a substance (That is why it never changes...Even if you go to the moon!)
Mass
400
A larger wooden log floats while a small metal nail sinks becasue of differences in this propery.
What is density?
400
Property of matter that is determined by how close or spread out particles of matter are.
Density
400
Substances can be identified using density because a substances density...
is always the same!
never changes!
500
Two objects have the same volume, but Object A has twice the mass of Object B. Object A has this compared to Object B.
What is twice the density?
500
Measurement of how much matter is in a certain volume of a substance.
Density
500
Two cubes have exactly the same volume. Cube A has a mass of 40 grams, while Cube B has a mass of 80 grams. This cue has the greater density, and its density is this many times greater.
What is Cube B, with twice the density?
500
Property of matter that tells us whether something is smooth or rough.
What is texture?
500
A students cuts a solid block of aluminum in half. This property remains unchanged
What is density?
