Properties of Matter
Properties of matter can be divided into these two groups?
Physical properties and Chemical properties
This is the measure of the amount of matter in an object.
Mass
What are three common states of matter?
Solid, liquid, and gas
This is the measure of how much one substance can dissolve in another substance.
Solubility
The ability of a material to conduct electricity is this property.
Conductivity
The ability of a material to change its chemical makeup.
Chemical property
This is the amount of space that matter takes up.
Volume
This state of matter has a definite shape and volume.
Solid
These materials, such as rubber and plastic, that have low conductivity are called this.
Insulators
This is the amount of mass per unit of volume.
Density
These are properties that can be detected by the senses.
Physical properties
The volume of a solid is measured in these units.
(cm3) Cubic centimeters
This state of matter has a definite volume but takes the shape of its container.
Liquid
An object with a density lower than that of water will float. This ability to float is called this.
Buoyancy
This is the formula for finding the density of a material.
Density = Mass/Volume
What type of change occurs when paper is burned?
Chemical change
The volume of a liquid is measured in these units.
(L) liters or (mL) milliliters
This state of matter has no definite volume or shape.
Gas
The amount of water displaced by submerging an object in water can be used to find this.
Volume
This is the temperature at which a liquid substance changes into a gas.
Boiling point
What type of change occurs when wood is cut?
Physical change
The mass of an object is measured in these units.
(kg) kilograms or (g) grams
This is the temperature at which a solid material changes into a liquid.
Melting point
What is the freezing point and boiling point of pure water measured at sea level?
0 degrees Celsius and 100 degrees Celsius
This organ is used by fish to increase or decrease their density enabling them to change their depth.
