What is a low mass from having no sugar?

200

When a change of state occurs where energy/heat needs to be gained we call that.

What is endothermic?!

300

Making an educated guess as to why something does or doesn't happen is called this.

What is Forming a Hypothesis?

300
The Metric System (or International System) is used globally for this reason.

It is easy to use because it is based on the number 10!

300

The gas law that states as temperature goes up...so does the volume of the gas. (Why the cans imploded)

What is Charles Law?

300

If you increase an objects volume (the amount of space it takes up) and keep its mass the same....this will happen to its density.

It will DECREASE!!!

300

Changing from a solid straight to a gas without ever melting is called.

What is sublimation?
