Matter Matters
The three states of matter.
What are solids, liquids, and gases.
A desk, a box, or a stick of butter are a few examples of this state of matter.
What is a solid.
The property of matter that describes how objects attract or repel other objects.
What is magnetism.
The type of change that creates a new substance, and may include fizzing, producing light or heat.
What is a chemical change (reaction.)
The amount of matter an object has.
What is mass.
The smallest unit of matter.
What is an atom (particle.)
The state of matter which has a definite volume, but no definite shape.
What is a liquid.
When looking at electricity flow, water, metal, and wires are examples of this type of material.
What is a conductor.
Dissolving sugar, salt or other substances into a liquid is an example of this type of change.
What is a physical change.
What is the Law of the Conservation of Matter?
What is "matter cannot be created or destroyed."
The amount of space an object takes up.
What is volume.
The particles in this state of matter are tightly packed together, and have a specific shape and volume.
What is a solid.
The property of matter that describes how an object is easily scratched or resists scratching.
What is hardness.
The gas that is often produced during a chemical reaction.
What is carbon dioxide.
A system where mass is not able to be added or to escape.
What is a closed system.
The definition of matter.
What is "anything that has mass, and takes up space."
Describe the arrangement of particles in a gas.
What is spread far apart and moving freely.
The property that describes what happens when one substance completely blends into water or other liquids.
What is solubility or dissolving.
The process of liquid water changing into a gas state when heat is added.
What is evaporation.
Rubber, plastic, and cotton wool are examples of this type of electricity-resistant material.
What is an insulator.
The 4th type of matter, which includes such things as neon lights and lightning bolts.
What is plasma.
How does matter change from one state to another?
What is adding heat or taking away heat.
The property that describe a material's ability to resist being pulled apart.
What is tensile strength or toughness.
The freezing point and boiling point of water (celsius or Farenheit.)
Celsius: What is 0 degrees and 100 degrees.
Farenheit: What is 32 degrees and 212 degrees.
The only type of matter that does not have a definite shape or a definite volume.
What is a gas.
