Answer
Matter   anything that has mass and takes up space.  
🗑
Volume   a measure of the size of a body or a region in three‐dimensional space.  
🗑
Meniscus   the curve of a liquid's surface by which one measures the volume of the liquid.  
🗑
Mass   a measure of the amount of matter in an object or substance.  
🗑
Weight   a measure of the gravitational force exerted on an object; its value can change depending on its location in the universe  
🗑
graduated cylinder   usually a long cylinder made of glass or plastic that is used to measure the volume of a liquid.  
🗑
beaker   a large mouth container resembling a cup usually used to measure volumes of liquid greater than 100 milliliters.  
🗑
cubic   three‐dimensional  
🗑
inertia   the tendency of an object/substance to resist being moved or, if the object is moving, to resist a change in speed or direction until an outside force acts on the object.  
🗑
physical property   a characteristic of a substance that does not involve a chemical change, such as density, color, or hardness.  
🗑
density   the ratio of the mass of a substance to the volume of the substance, how closely packed are the particles of matter in an object/substance.  
🗑

🗑
chemical property   a property of matter that describes a substance's ability to participate in chemical reactions.  
🗑
flammability   the ability of a substance to burn.  
🗑
reactivity   the ability of two or more substances to combine and form one or more new substances.  
🗑
characteristic property   physical or chemical properties that always exist for substance  
🗑
chemical change   a change that occurs when one or more substances change into entirely new substances (new identities) with different properties.  
🗑
composition   the type of matter and arrangement of particles in an object.  
🗑
electrolysis   a process that passes electricity through water in an effort to split hydrogen and oxygen atoms apart from each other.  
🗑
