Key Terms
What is Matter?
What makes up everything and is made up of particles.
What is Mass?
Mass is the total amount of Matter in an object.
Why did the Hindenburg burn up as quick as it did?
It used Hydrogen gas which is highly Flammable.
How do you make a Solid a Liquid?
You use warm temperatures on it.
Solids would be modeled as a series of particles in unmoving rows.
True. By demonstrating that Solids hardly move, you model them in rows.
What is Density?
A total number of molecules pack on a tight space.
What is Volume?
Why does Gravity get heavier on the Moon as opposed to Earth's?
Earth's Gravitational pull is stronger here on Earth.
How do you make Liquid a Gas?
You use extreme heat on it.
Liquid Nitrogen causes objects to shatter because it makes an object more Malleable.
False. Liquid Nitrogen makes an object denser.
What is Flammability?
The rate at which something catches fire.
What is a Liquid?
A state of Matter that is fluid and moveable.
Why is Earth's Gravitational pull weaker on the Moon?
The Moon's Gravitational pull is weaker than on Earth.
How does a Gas become a Liquid?
The water Cycle and the Atmosphere make it a gas through Condensation and cooling.
The Hindenburg became flammable because it was filled with Helium.
False. Helium is not flammable. It was filled with Hydrogen which is very flammable.
What is Weight?
The rate at which something is held down by Gravity.
What is a Solid?
A Solid is a state of Matter that does not really move.
How much less do you weigh on the Moon than on Earth?
You weigh 2/3's less on the Moon.
How does Liquid become a Solid?
It becomes a Solid due to extreme cold being applied.
Gases are modeled as slightly moving rows to demonstrate that warmth is applied.
False. Gas is modeled as fast moving rows to show that extreme heat is applied.
What is a Property?
A property is a character or quality of an object.
What is a Gas?
A Gas is a state of Matter that moves frequently and can fit in anything.
How much more do you weigh on Jupiter than on Earth?
You weigh three times as much on Jupiter than on the Earth.
How does Gas become a Solid.
A Gas becomes a Solid through Deposition due to to cold temperatures being applied.
Water is the least dense state of Matter.
False. Gas is the least dense state of Matter.
