What is the measurement of heat that is reported on Celsius or Fahrenheit?
Temperature
Write the word out for your answer, not just the number. Which step is this:
List all materials and steps to properly complete the investigation.
Materials and Procedure
True or False: Energy is required to change matter from one form to another.
True
True or False: When more thermal energy is present, the atoms and molecules move around less.
False
Which word means the way parts are put together to make a whole?
Structure
When 2 or more atoms bond together, what do they form?
Molecules
Write the word out for your answer, not just the number. Which step is this:
Use the data collected in the experiment to explain why the hypothesis is true, false, or inconclusive.
Conclusion
Energy that is stored up is called...
Potential Energy
This state of matter has the least amount of thermal energy and as a result has its own shape.
Solid
What is an observable or measurable characteristic?
Property
The size, extent, or importance of something relative to something else
Scale
Write the word out for your answer, not just the number. Which step is this:
Follow your test procedure to gather information.
Collect Data
Energy that is in motion is called...
Kinetic Energy
This state of matter has the most amount of thermal energy and as a result the molecules move far apart and bounce around randomly.
Gas
Which word means heat transfer when molecules collide?
Conduction
A set of connected, interacting parts that form a more complex whole
System
Write the word out for your answer, not just the number. Which step is this:
Describes in 2-3 sentences the experiment you will do to test your hypothesis.
Summarize Experiment
What type of energy is stored in the bonds of atoms and molecules to hold them together?
Chemical Energy
