| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Gram | Basic unit used to measure mass |
| Graduated Cylinder | Instrument for measuring volume |
| Temperature | Average movement of particles an object has |
| LIquid | State of matter where the particles slip and slide past each other, has no fixed shape, has definate volume |
| Water Displacement Method | Process used to find the volume of an irregular object |
| Density | Amount of matter in a certain volume. Density always stays the same for a substance |
| Heat | Flow of energy from warm to cold |
| L X W X H | Formula for the volume of a regular shaped object |
| Meniscus | Curved surface that liquid froms in a graduated cylinder |
| States of Matter | Solid, liquid, and gas |
| Water | A subsstance commonly found in all three states of matter. Density 1.0 g/ml |
| Matter | Anything with mass and volume |
| Solid | A state of matter in which the particles vibrate and stay in place, has a definate shape and volume |
| Volume | How much space an object takes up |
| Condensation | When a gas loses heat and forms a liquid |
| Balance | An instrument used to measure mass |
| Kinetic Energy | All matter has moving particles, therefore has this |
| Evaporation | Liquid to a gas |
| Liter | Basic metric unit used for volume |
| Melting | Solid to a liquid |
| Freezing | Liquid to a solid |
| Mass | When you measure an object with a balance |
| Mass divided by volume | The formula for density |
| Gas | State of matter where the particles move freely about, it doesn't have a definate shape or volume |
