Matter Vocabulary
Everything that has mass and takes up space
What is Matter
Definition: properties of matter that can be observed or measured (not chemical, but...)
Physical Properties
The 3 states of matter
What is solid, liquid, and gas
Ice cubes changing into water is caused by an addition of heat.
What is melting?
A combination of 2 or more atoms by a chemical bond.
What is a Molecule
The amount of matter in something
What is Mass
Mass less than volume=float
Mass greater than volume=sink
What is sink or float?
Pancake syrup is this state of matter.
What is liquid
Adding heat to a pot of water will change the liquid into this state of matter.
What is gas
Temperature, Amount of Solvent, Stirring, and surface area all affect this.
What is solubility?
Definite shape and size
What is Solid
This property is measured by using a digital scale.
What is Mass?
An ice cube is in this state of matter.
What is a solid
The process of removing heat from a gas to a liquid is called this.
What is condensation
True or false a bowl the higher the temperature to more kinetic energy matter has.
What is True
Takes the shape of the container it is in
What is Liquid
This property can be measured using a thermometer.
What is temperature?
Steam is in this state of matter.
What is a gas
The process of adding heat to a liquid and changing into a gas is called this.
What is Evaporation
I would use this tool measure kinetic energy.
What is an thermometer?
It's invisible!
What is Gas
You observe Physical Properties with these five senses.
What is sight, touch, hearing, smell, and taste
The particles seem to bump one another and transfer kinetic energy.
What is a gas?
Water loosing heat turning into a solid by this process.
What is Freezing
These do not change with the amount of matter present.
What are independent physical properties ? (density, boiling point, melting point, solubility)
