Nothing Really Matters
This tool was used to measure the exact volumes of a liquid or gas.
Syringe
Air has mass and takes up space. That means air is what?
Matter
A clamped syringe holds 27 quintillion particles of air. When you compress it, how many particles remain?
27 Quintillion
This is known as the energy of motion
Kinetic Energy
In which state of matter do particles fly around independently, with lots of space between them?
Gas
What tool uses an expanding and contracting liquid to measure temperature?
Thermometer
A term used to describe all the gasses we can breathe.
Air
A plastic bubble is inside a syringe. When the pressure is lowered inside the syringe, what happens to the bubble?
It swells
Heating air particles gives them more kinetic energy by increasing their what?
Speed
In which state of matter are particles firmly bonded together?
Solid
Mrs. Grace microwaves her Cup Noodle. How does the kinetic energy in the broth change?
It Increases
This is what's in the space between air particles.
Nothing (empty space)
This term describes the decrease of gas volume as a result of applied force or pressure.
Compression
A capped bottle of air comes out of the freezer crushed. how did the spacing of the air particles change?
They're closer together.
In which state of matter do particles touch and move over each other?
Liquid
What gas is formed in the bubbles when citric acid and sodium bicarbonate react?
Carbon dioxide
Larger than atoms but too small to see, these tiny pieces make up air and all other matter.
Particles
This word describes the decrease of volume due to decreased kinetic energy of particles.
Contraction
A quintillion particles of water and a quintillion particles water vapor (gas) have different volumes. What's the main difference between their particles?
Kinetic energy (or the space between them)
Mr. Osborne leaves his coffee on his desk during break and it gets cold. What happens to the kinetic energy of the particles?
When we mixed the Mystery Mixture with water, we saw foaming bubbles. This was evidence of what occurring?
Chemical Reaction
Air is a mixture of gases. Which gas makes up about four-fifths of it?
Nitrogen
This term describes he increase of volume as a result of applied force or due to increased kinetic energy of particles.
Expansion
Our blue-water bottle with the clear pipe is turned upside down and heated. Which way does the water in the pipe move?
Down (away from the bottle)
A gas syringe and a water syringe are filled to the same level. Which one holds more matter?
Water
