100
This is anything that has mass and takes up space.
What is matter?
100
This is a fact that can be found using your 5 senses.
What is an observation?
100
This is the measure of how much space an object takes up.
What is volume?
100
This is the measure of mass in a given amount of volume.
What is density?
100
A series of steps that can be used in conducting an experiment.
What is the scientific method?
200
This is solids, liquids, or gases.
What things are matter?
200
This is a conclusion that is made from your observations.
What is an inference?
200
This is the scientific unit of measure for volume.
What is cm3?
200
D=M/V
What is the formula for calculating density?
200
This is the first step in the scientific method that means "an educated guess"
What is a hypothesis?
300
This is the measure of the amount of matter in an object.
What is mass?
300
This is a type of observation that is expressed in numbers, measurements, or data
What is a quantitative observation?
300
This is a method that can be used to calculate the volume of irregular objects by pushing water out of the way.
What is the water displacement method?
300
When the density of an object is greater that 1, it will sink.
Why does an object sink?
300
This is the second step in the scientific method that involves making an educated guess.
What is hypothesis?
400
This is the scientific unit of measure for mass.
What is grams?
400
This is a type of observation that is made from color, appearance, and shape
What is a qualitative observation?
400
length x width x height
What is the formula for volume?
400
When an object's density is less than the water's density, it will float.
Why does an object float?
400
This is the fourth step in the scientific method that involves collecting information that was tested in your experiment.
What is the fourth step, collecting data?
500
Mass can be measured with this.
What is a digital scale used for?
500
This is a type of observation that is hard to show in numbers.
What is a qualitative observation?
500
The volume has to be less than the mass in order for the object to do this.
How does an object float?
500
A objects density can be calculated by dividing mass by volume.
How do you calculate density?
500
This is the fifth step of the scientific method that involves sharing the information that you have found.
What is sharing your data?
