300

The measure of the force of gravity on an object is ____________.

The measure of the force of gravity on an object is weight.

300

Name 3 properties of matter that can be observed

state, size, shape, color, texture, scent, magnetism, hardness, and solubility

400

Amount of matter packed inside a certain amount of space

Density

400
How do you measure the volume of a solid? Can you use the same method to measure all solids? Why or why not.
To measure the volume of a rectangular solid, you can multiply length x height x width. To measure the volume of an irregular solid you have to use water displacement. Measure a certain amount of water in a graduated cylinder. Then, put the object in the water and record the new volume. Last, subtract the first amount from the second amount to find the volume of the irregular solid.

What charge does the nucleus of an atom have and why?

The nucleus of an atom has a positive charge because it contains protons which have a positive charge and neutrons which have no charge.
