A type of energy that travels in waves and is visible to the eye.
Light Energy
The amount of matter in an object.
Mass
How much space matter takes up.
Has no definite shape or volume
Gas
The temperature at which water boils.
The Boiling Point
A type of energy that produces vibrations you can hear.
Sound Energy
Attraction to a magnet or magnetic force.
Magnetism
Anything that has mass and takes up space.
Matter
Has a definite shape and volume
Solid
The temperature at which water freezes.
The Freezing Point
A type of energy that has to do with any moving object.
Mechanical Energy
Material that allows electric current or heat energy to flow through easily.
Conductor
The ability to dissolve in water.
Solubility
Has a definite volume; takes the shape of its container.
Liquid
The process that occurs when water changes state from a liquid to a gas.
Evaporation
A type of energy that causes a transfer of heat between materials.
Thermal Energy
Material that slows down or stops electric current or heat from flowing.
Insulator
A combination of multiple substances that may or may not change after mixing.
Mixture
What are the 3 physical states of matter?
Solid, Liquid, and Gas
The process that occurs when water cools and condenses from a gas to a liquid.
Condensation
A type of energy that has tiny charged particles called electrons that are always moving. It is often moving through a wire.
Electrical Energy
Objects that are more dense sink in water, as less dense objects float in water.
Relative Density
A particular type of mixture where a substance dissolves in another; the molecules spread evenly through the other substance.
Solution
Solid, Liquid, or Gas
Physical State
The process in which a substance changes states from a solid to a liquid.
