| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What do we use to measure the mass of an object? | balance |
| The mass of an object is measured in what? | grams |
| How do we find the volume of a regular-shaped object? | V= l x w x h (volume = length x width x height) |
| How do we measure volume? | cu. cm or cm3 |
| How do we find the volume of an irregular-shaped object? | water displacement method |
| What do we place the object t in when measuring by the water displacement method? | graduated cylinder |
| How is the volume determined in the water displacement method? | the amount of water that is moved (displaced) is equal to the object's volume |
| How do we measure the volume of an irregular-shaped object? | in milliliters, mL |
| What is the amount of mass within a certain volume called? | density |
| Three ways we measure density? | grams per cu. cm g/cu.cm g/gm3 |
| What is the density of water? | 1.0g?cu.cm 1.0g/cm3 1.0g/mL |
| To find density you........ | divide mass by volume D=m/v |
| What describes the ability of an object to float in a fluid? | buoyancy |
| What are the 2 types of fluid used to measure buoyancy? | liquid or gas (ex. air) |
| When an object is pushed down into a fluid of greater density what does the fluid's buoyant force do? | it pushes the object back toward the surface |
| What properties of matter help us to tell substances apart? | physical properties |
| What materials allow heat or electricity to pass through easily? | conductors |
| Name a good conductor? | metals- aluminum, copper, gold, silver |
| What material do not allow heat or electricity to pass through easily? | insulators |
| Name some good insulators? | glass, plastic, rubber, styrofoam |
| Anything that has mass and volume (takes up space) is called? | matter |
