7 Science Pt. 1
This is the smallest unit of a pure substance that still maintains its properties.
What is a particle/atom?
Some call me the "universal solvent." Who am I?
What is water?
This term describes a fluid's "thickness" or resistance to flow.
What is viscosity?
I am the measure of force applied over a specific area.
What is pressure?
I am the only mammal capable of true powered flight.
What is a bat?
This type of matter is made up of only one type of particle.
What is a Pure Substance?
I am the specific term for the substance that is dissolved to create a solution.
What is a solute?
If an object is less dense than the fluid it is in, it will do this.
What is float?
As a balloon rises, the air pressure outside the balloon does "this."
What is decreases?
This planet in our solar system is so "light" (low density) it could technically float in a giant bathtub.
What is Saturn?
According to the Particle Theory, this happens to the particles when a substance is heated.
What is they move faster?
This is a mixture where you can clearly see two or more different phases or parts.
What is a heterogenous/mechanical mixture?
This upward force exerted by a fluid opposes the force of gravity
What is buoyancy?
In the Gulf of Mexico, the oil stayed on top of the water because it has a lower ____ than the ocean water.
What is density?
These "active" mountains can produce "Pele's Hair," which is actually thin strands of glass.
What are volcanoes?
How can you make tap water into a pure substance?
What is you have to distill/filter it.
You would use this method to separate metal paperclips from a pile of plastic ones.
What is magnetism?
This occurs when a gas cools down and turns back into a liquid, like when "steam" from a hot shower turns into water droplets on a cold mirror.
What is condensation?
These special tanks in a submarine are filled with water to submerge or air to surface.
What are ballast tanks?
Human "lead" pencils don't actually contain lead; they contain this form of carbon.
What is graphite?
This was the name of the specific oil rig that exploded, causing the 2010 disaster
What is the Deepwater Horizon?
Because the oil spill killed this, Cat Island began to wash away.
What is mangroves/vegetation/grass
I am the formula for calculating density
What is mass/volume?
This ancient Greek scientist realized that the volume of water displaced by an object is equal to the volume of the object itself.
Who is Archimedes?
I am the only letter that does not appear anywhere on the Periodic Table of Elements
What is "J?"
