What is matter?

Anything that has mass and takes up space 

100

Explain the motion and distance of particles in a gas. 

The particles are moving very quickly and they are far apart from each other. 

100

What is the formula for density? 

Density equals mass divided by volume. 

100

Give an example of a physical property 

Color, texture, taste, odor, malleability, ductility, magnetic ability (anything that you can observe or measure without changing the properties of a substance) 

100

True or false: The particles in all objects, whether solid, liquid, or gas, are moving.

True 

200

What force impacts the weight of an object? 

Gravity 

200

How are thermal energy and kinetic energy related to each other? 

As thermal energy increases, kinetic energy increases. As thermal energy decreases, kinetic energy decreases. 

200

How do you calculate the volume of an object using displacement? 

1. Find the initial volume of water in the graduated cylinder. 

2. Place the object in the graduate cylinder and measure the volume again. 

3. Subtract the volume of the graduated cylinder with the object and the volume of the graduate cylinder without the object.

Give an example of a chemical property

Flammability, reaction with vinegar, rusting, tarnishing

200

Physical or chemical change: The muffler of a car rusting 

Chemical 

300

How do you calculate the volume of a rectangular prism? 

Multiply the length, width, and height 

300
What is the name for the change of state where a liquid becomes a gas? 

Evaporation 

300

The mass of a sample of maple syrup is 5.586 g. The volume of the sample is 4.2 mL. What is the density of the maple syrup? 

1.33 g / mL 

300

Physical or chemical change: Taking a bite out of an apple 

Physical 

300

The mass of a sample of honey is 12.096 g. The volume of the honey is 8.4 mL. What is the density of honey? 

1.44 g / mL 

400

List one change of state and list the starting state of matter and the ending state of matter. 

Melting - Solid to liquid 

Freezing - Liquid to solid 

Vaporization - Liquid to gas 

Condensation - Gas to liquid 

Sublimation - Solid to gas 

Deposition - Gas to solid 

400

What are the three changes in state where thermal energy is increased? 

Sublimation, melting, evaporation 

400


4 mL 

400

Physical or chemical change: Lighting a match 

Chemical 

400

Explain how the kinetic energy and thermal energy of molecules changes during evaporation. 

The kinetic energy increases and the thermal energy increases. 

500

What is an example of a situation when someone's weight would change but their mass would remain the same? 

Going into outer space 

500

1. What two states of matter are involved in deposition? 

2. How does the kinetic energy of the particles change during deposition? 

3. How does thermal energy change during deposition? 

1. Gas and solid 

2. Decreases 

3. Decreases (it is lost) 

500


1.6 mL 

500

Physical or chemical change: Ice cream melting 

Physical

What is an example of deposition? 

Frost on a window or car windshield
