TermDefinition
1.0 What is water's approximate density?
Archimedes' Principle States that the buoyant force is equal to the weight of the fluid displaced by an object.
Boiling point the temperature at which a substance boils
bottom of the meniscus Where do you look to take a volume reading of a liquid in a graduated cylinder?
buoyant force the upward force on an object in a fluid exerted by the surrounding fluid
Chemical change a change in matter that produces one or more new substances
Chemical properties the characteristics of a substance that determine how it will react with other substances
Conductivity the ability of an object to transfer heat or electricity to another object
density the amount of matter in a volume
Flammability a material's ability to burn in the presence of oxygen
Hardness the resistance to indentation
Malleability the ability of a substance to be hammered or beaten into thin sheets without shattering
mass the amount of matter in a solid, liquid, or gas
Melting point the temperature at which a substance changes from a solid to liquid
meniscus Curved surface of liquid
negative buoyancy The weight of the object is greater than the buoyant force, and the object sinks.
neutral buoyancy The buoyant force and the weight of the object are equal, and the object will hover in the water.
Physical change a change of matter from one form to another without a change in chemical properties
physical property the characteristics of a substance that can be observed or measured without changing the substance
positive buoyancy The buoyant force is greater than the weight of the object, and the object floats.
pressure the force per unit of area applied on a surface of an object
Reactivity the property that describes the likelihood of a substance combining chemically with other substances
Viscosity the resistance to flow
volume the amount of space something occupies
water displacement What do you do to find the volume of an irregular solid?

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.
