Matter of Measurement
This measurement tells how much matter an object contains. It is measured using a triple beam balance.
mass
What stays the same no matter what and is not effected by gravity?
mass
A pure substance made of only one kind of atom
element
A substance with a pH below 7 is described as
acidic
This property describes whether a material can be attracted to a magnet
magnetism
This property describes how much space an object takes up.
Volume
What is the force that pulls objects towards a planet or another massive body?
gravity
Water is made of two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom chemically bonded. What is it?
compound
A substance with a pH above 7 is
basic
This property describes how well a material allows electric charge to flow?
conductivity
To find the volume of a rectangular block what would you use?
Ruler and use the L * W * H *=V equation
An astronaut travels from Earth to the moon. What stays the same?
His mass
In this type of mixture, the substances are unevenly distributed and different parts could be visible (if it is a suspension).
heterogenous
Sugar dissolving fully into water is called
solubility
This property describes how easily heat moves through a material.
thermal conductivity
What property compares an objects mass by it's volume?
density
A bag has a mass of 5 kilograms on Earth. What will it's mass be on the moon?
5 kilograms
Salt water has the same pattern of molecules throughout that means it is a
homogenous mixture.
Unlike a solution, this mixture has particles that are large enough to settle over time.
suspension
The temperature at which a liquid changes into a gas is called
boiling point
To find the volume of an irregular shaped object you use the water displacement method. If the starting graduated cylinder has 20 ml of water and the volume rises to 27 ml after adding a rock, what is the volume of the rock?
7 ml
Weight changes depending on how far you are from the center of gravity since it is dependent on gravity. Where on Earth will a person "weigh" the least?
On the top of a mountain
A mixture that has tiny particles that have more than one phase of matter and have particles that are too small to see without a microscope.
colloid
The temperature where a solid changes into a liquid
melting point
Density and melting point are examples of this type of property that remains the same about a substances despite if the size or shape changes
