Frizzell Vocab #3A

Properties of Matter- Part 1

TermDefinition
matter Anything that has mass and takes up space (has volume).
mass the amount of matter in an object. It is measured on a balance in grams/ kilograms.
volume the amount of space an object takes up. It is measured with a ruler or graduated cylinder/beaker
state of matter the classification of matter as a solid, liquid, or gas.
solid a type of matter with tightly packed particles that keep their shape and can vibrate
liquid a type of matter with loosely packed particles which can move and take the shape of the container they are in; Liquids are ‘pour-able’
gas a type of matter with very scattered particles that move very fast; it can take the shape of a container.
temperature the measure of thermal energy’s motion (movement) in an object; more moving thermal energy = hot less moving thermal energy = cold
physical property are characteristics of matter that can be observed and measured, such as mass, volume, state of matter, density, magnetism, solubility, and conduction.
particles; atoms the smallest part of matter; what all matter is made of
freeze changes in the physical property of a liquid when heat is taken away and it becomes a solid. (liquid changes to a solid)
melt changes in the physical property of a solid when heat is added and it becomes a liquid. (solid changes to liquid)
boil changes in the physical property of a liquid when heat is added and it becomes a gas at a specific temperature. (liquid becomes a gas)
condensation changes in the physical property of a gas when heat is taken away and it becomes a liquid. (gas changes back to a liquid)
evaporation the process of changing liquid water into water vapor (gas) when thermal (heat) energy is present-(which is always)
water vapor the gas state of water
physical change when substances go through a change and no new substance is created. (Ex. water has a physical change when it is cooled and changes into ice... it is still water, just a solid now)

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
