States of Matter
This is the number of states of matter we have talked about in the past week.
What is three?
This property of minerals is defined as the color of the mineral's powder.
What is streak?
This is the number of quadrants on a coordinate grid.
What is four?
Numbers that are higher than zero are called this type of integer.
What are positive integers?
These are the names of the three different types of rocks.
What is Igneous, Sedimentary, and Metamorphic?
States of matter can change when THIS is introduced.
What is heat?
How light reflects off of a mineral is referred to as THIS property.
What is luster?
These are the names of the vertical and horizontal axes on a coordinate grid.
What are x-axis and y-axis?
Numbers that are lower than zero are called this type of integer.
What are negative integers?
This type of rock is made from heat and pressure.
What is Metamorphic?
This state of matter has a definite shape and volume. The atoms are packed together tightly and cannot move around freely.
What is a solid?
This is known as the hardest mineral.
What is a diamond?
An ordered pair that is (+, +) will be located in this quadrant.
What is Quadrant 1?
This is the vocabulary word that describes the "distance away from zero" on a number line.
What is Absolute Value?
This type of rock is made from the cooling and hardening of lava.
What is Igneous?
Changing a solid to a liquid is called this.
What is melting?
This is the name of the scale that determines a mineral's hardness.
What is Mohs Hardness Scale?
An ordered pair of (-, -) would be located in this quadrant.
What is Quadrant 3?
(0, 0) on a coordinate grid, or zero on a number line is given THIS name...think about Wolverine's story.
What is the Origin?
This type of rock is made from years and years of layers cementing and compacting on top of each other.
What is Sedimentary?
Changing from a liquid to a gas involves this process.
What is evaporation?
If a mineral crumbles like a cookie when it breaks, the mineral is said to have THIS property.
What is fracture?
An ordered pair located in Quadrant 4 would have this type of ordered pair.
What is (+, -)?
As numbers get bigger on a number line, we move in THIS direction.
What is up or to the right?
Broken up pieces of rocks are called THIS.
What is sediment?
