Volume is...

The property of matter that determines the amount of space an object takes up.

100

Weight is...

The property of matter that determines how heavy an object is.

100

Density is...

The property of matter that determines sinking or floating.

100

Buoyancy is...

The property of matter that determines an objects ability to float.

100

The 3 States of Matter are...

1. Solid

2. Liquid

3. Gas

200

What do you use to measure volume?

Volumetric equipment, such as a graduated cylindar.

200

True or False:

Your weight would change on the moon, but your mass would not.

True

200

If an object sinks, is that object less or more dense than water?

That object is more dense than water.

200

True or False:

If something sinks, it contains buoyancy.

False

200

The state of matter of ice is...

Solid

300

True or false: Volume increase and decrease.

True

300

True or False:

The heavier an object is, the more likely it is to sink.

False. Sinking and floating has to do with density, not weight.

300

True or False:

An object is more dense if its particles are spread out.

False. When particles are tightly packed is when they are more dense.

300

This must be present for buoyancy to exist

What is a property of milk?

A. It takes the shape of its container.

B. It has no smell.

C. It is a solid.

A. It takes the shape of its container.

Santa had a glass of milk. If he added 2 cookies to his glass, what would happen to the volume in his glass?

A. The volume would increase.

B. The volume would decrease.

C. The volume would stay the same.

A. The volume would increase.

400

Weight measures light vs heavy, or sinking vs floating?

light vs heavy

400

If you drop a pumpkin into a pool of water, will the pumpkin sink or float?

The pumpkin will float. Since it is mostly hollow, it is not dense.
400

Sarah placed a centrifuge tube in water and it floated. She filled the tube with water and it sank. What property of the centrifuge tube did she change?

Buoyancy

400

Which is the most accurate?

A.estimating

B. measuring

C. guessing

D. predicting

B. measuring

500

Max has 10 ml of water in a graduated cylinder. He puts a rock onto the cylinder. The volume in the cylinder is now 20 ml. What is the volume of the rock?

10 ml

500

Which statement is true about weight?

A. Weight determines volume.

B. Heavy objects sink in water.

C. Light objects float in water.

D. Weight is not the same as density.

D. Weight is not the same as density.

500

A rubber duck floats, while a nickel sinks. Which item is less dense?

The rubber duck is less dense than the nickel, since the duck is floating, and the nickel is not.

500

Amy tested the buoyancy of 4 objects in water. Which object is the least buoyant?

Object 1 - float

Object 2 - sink

Object 3 - float

Object 4 - float

Object 2. It does not hold buoyancy, because it does not float.
