| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Mass | How much there is of an object |
| How is mass usually measured | Grams or Kilograms |
| States of Matter | Solid, Liquid, Gas and Plasma |
| Magnetism | A force of attraction between a magnet and some metal |
| Conductivity | How well something carries heat, sound, or electricity |
| Other properties of Matter | how hard or soft it is, how it looks, sounds, tastes, or smells |
| Solid | It has a fixed volume and shape |
| Liquid | Has no fixed shape, takes the shape of the container that it is in, Has a fixed Volume |
| Gas | Its particles move in all directions has no shape and no fixed volume |
| Physical Change | occurs when matter changes one or more of its physicals properties Examples Changes in state are physical changes they are reversible. |
| Chemical Change | occurs when one type of matter combines with another to become something that has a completly different structure. Example Burning Wood |
| evaporate | when a liquid turns into a gas |
| condensing | gas turns into a liquid |
| melting | solid turns into a liquid |
| freezing | when a liquid turns to a solid |
| conductivity | the ability of matter to carry heat, sound or electricity |
| property | a characteristic or quality that describes matter |
| Matter | is everything that takes up space and has mass |
| Weight | the amount of force pulling on the object by gravity (your weight will be different on differnet planets, but your mass will stay the same) |
