Properties
The property of how much weight a substance can hold up
What is Strength?
Everything we can see, touch, has weight, and/or takes up space is made of this.
What is Matter?
Measurement of how much space an object or substance takes up
What is Volume?
The state of matter at the lowest temperature; molecules are packed tightly together and vibrate but do not move around.
What is a solid?
What are Properties?
The property of whether a substance is affected by a nearby magnet
What is Magnetism?
Measurement of how much matter something is made of.
What is Mass?
What is Put it in water and see if it disappears?
The state of matter where particles move around slowly but are still in contact with one another; has defined volume but takes the shape of its container
What is a liquid?
the place or places where volcanos usually are; where 2 tectonic plates meet
What is a Plate Boundary?
The property of whether one substance will leave a scratch on another; how tough a substance is
What is Hardness?
The smallest unit of a substance.
What is a Particle/molecule?
When 2 or more substances are combined, and can be separated out into their original forms
What is a mixture? (also accepted: solution)
The state of matter at the highest temperature; particles are spread out and move around quickly, the substance will spread out to fill its container, so it won't have defined shape or volume
What is a Gas?
Name the steps of the water cycle and describe 2
Condensation, precipitation, groundwater flow/runoff, evaporation
The amount of mass inside of something per unit volume; used to figure out whether something will sink or float
What is Density?
matter cannot be created or destroyed; it can only change states
When 2 or more substances are combined and form a new substance with new properties
What is a Chemical reaction?
The vocab term for switching from solid to liquid, liquid to gas, or back the other way
What is a phase change?
The purpose of compost
What is To turn leftovers/food waste into fertilizer to help plants grow better?
Whether a substance will complete dissolve or disappear in a liquid
What is Solubility?
the best measurement to prove that matter is conserved when things are combined, or go through phase changes
Which of these properties could you use to figure out if objects are made of the same substances:
hardness, mass, shape, magnetism, solubility, flexibility, state of matter (solid, liquid, gas), temperature
hardness, magnetism, solubility, flexibility
name 2 pieces of evidence that a chemical reaction has taken place
Change in temperature; product has new properties; cannot separate out original components; an explosion
Put these phases in order: full moon, crescent moon, gibbeous moon, new moon
What is New moon, crescent moon, gibbeous moon, full moon?
