Measuring Matter
What do you use to measure mass?
What is a triple beam balance
What is the formula for density?
What is mass divided by volume.
What is matter that has a definite volume but no definite shape
What is liquid.
What is the temperature at which a solid changes to a liquid
What is melting point
How do you measure the volume of a liquid?
What is use a graduated cylinder.
What is the unit for density?
What is g/cm3.
Particles move the fastest in this state of matter.
What is gas.
It goes from a liquid to a gas.
What is evaporation.
How do you measure the volume of a rock?
What is water displacement.
The density of water is 1 g/cm3. If an object sinks in water, what can be said about its density?
What is it is greater than 1 g/cm3.
They vibrate back and forth in place without moving around.
What are the particles in a solid.
The change that takes place when a new kind of matter is made.
What is Chemical change.
The amount of matter in a given space.
What is density?
How do you measure the volume of a solid that has a regular shape?
What is Use a ruler to measure the length, width and height. Then use the formula length X width X height.
How can you compare the density of water with that of other kinds of matter?
What is If an object is less dense than water it will float. If it is more dense than water, it will sink.
These particles are not as far apart as those in a gas but are farther apart than the ones in a solid. What are they and how do they move?
What are the particles in a liquid. They move and slide past each other.
Water droplets forming on the outside of a glass of lemonade during the summer.
What is condensation.
The formula for density is mass divided by volume. What then is the formula for mass?
What is density times volume.
Which state of matter has particles with the greatest amount of kinetic energy?
What is gas.
What happens to energy when matter changes from a solid to a liquid?
What is energy is absorbed
When a solid changes directly into a gas.
What is sublimation
