A ball floats on water. What can you tell about the ball's density?
It is LESS dense than water.
100
Which easily dissolves in water? sand, sugar, ice or paper?
Sugar

How does the arrangement of particles of water differ in its liquid and solid states?
In the solid state, the particles are close together and barely move. In the liquid state, the particles can move from place to place and have more space between them.

How can you make an object LESS dense?
Add air to the object.

What is buoyancy?
Ability of matter to float in a liquid or gas.

What happens to the particles of sugar as water dissolves it?
The water molecules are separating the sugar molecules away from each other.

This type of matter has a definite volume and takes the shape of the container it is put into.
Liquid
300
What is density?
It compares the amount of matter in an object to the amount of space it takes up. (D=mass x volume)

A liquid measuring cup measures the ______ of a liquid.
Volume
300
A boat made from matter that is denser than water can float on water if it is filled with enough_____.
Air
300
This is what happens when one material forms a solution with another material?
One material dissolves
400
This type of matter has both a definite shape and a definite volume.
Solid

How would you measure the density of a statue that is 3 inches tall?
To find volume: A large container of measured water. The water would be displaced by the statue being put inside. To find mass: a pan balance. Use a calculator to divide mass by volume to find density.
400
The formula for measuring density is_____
Density= mass x volume
400
Which is the most buoyant in water? Sugar, a lead weight, wood or an eraser?
Wood

What is the measure of the amount of one material that will dissolve in another material?
Solubility
500
Which state of matter has no definite shape or volume?
Gas

If a black ball is denser than a white ball of the same size, the black must has higher what?
Mass- more matter taking up the same amount of space.
