States of Matter
Name the three common states of matter.
Solid, Liquid and Gas
The amount of matter in an object is called this.
Mass
Is cutting a piece of paper a physical change or a chemical change?
Physical change
The ability of matter to dissolve in a liquid or the maximum amount of a substance that can be dissolved by another
Solubility
This state of matter takes the shape of its container but has a definite volume.
Liquid
This property tells how much space an object takes up.
Volume
Burning wood is this type of change because new substances are formed.
Chemical change
The ability of a substance to allow energy like heat or electricity to pass it.
Conducitvity
This state of matter has no definite shape or volume.
Gas
Iron is attracted to magnets because it has this property.
Magnetism
Ice melting into water is this type of change.
Physical change
A characteristic of a substance - such as shape, color or reflectivity that can be observed and measured.
Physical Property
This state of matter has a definite shape and volume.
Solid
Aluminum foil looks shiny because it bounces light back from its surface. What property is this?
Reflectivity
When metal reacts with oxygen and forms rust, this type of change has occurred.
Chemical change
Properties of metal
A student pours juice from a bottle into a cup. The juice changes shape but keeps the same amount of space. What state of matter is the juice?
Liquid
Name 3 physical properties of glass
Reflective, transparent and brittle/breakable/fragile
Bubbles, a temperature change, or a new odor can be evidence that this type of change occurred.
Chemical change
Describe the property of conductivity:
how well a material allows heat or electricity to move through it.
