🗑
What is matter made of?   Is made up very small particles too small to be seen.  
🗑
What are the states of matter?   solid, liquid, and gas  
🗑
Which state of matter does not have a definite volume?   Gas  
🗑
Which state of matter has a definite shape?   Solid  
🗑
Which state of matter has particles that move away from each other, but not too far away from each other?   liquid  
🗑
How do you measure the volume of matter using a graduated cylinder?   Read the water level from the bottom of the meniscus  
🗑
What is mass?   The measurement of the amount of matter something contains  
🗑
What is weight?   The measurement of the pull of gravity on an object  
🗑
How do you measure the volume of a rectangular prism or cube?   Volume = Length x width x height  
🗑
I have a definite volume and my shape changes according to the shape of container. My particles can move apart from each other and flow from place to place. I am   liquid  
🗑
I have no definite shape or volume but can take on the shape of a container. My particles are spaced far a part and move wildly around. I am?   gas  
🗑
What is a mixture?   Two or more substances mixed together that can be separated  
🗑
What is an example of a mixture of solids?   Salad, trail mix, concrete, and etc.  
🗑
What is an example of a mixture of a solid and a liquid?   Salt water, tea, mud, and etc.  
🗑
What is an example of a mixture of liquids?   Oil and vinegar, salad dressing, and etc  
🗑
What is an example of a mixture of liquids and gases?   Carbonated soft drinks  
🗑
What is a heterogeneous mixture?   A mixture made up of different substances that maintain their physical properties  
🗑
What is a homogeneous mixture?   A mixture where the substances are equally mixed to look one substance  
🗑
What tools could you use to separate a solid from a liquid?   Screen, funnel with coffee filter, or evaporation  
🗑
What tools could you use to separate a solid from a solid?   Sifter, magnet  
🗑
What is filtration?   Separating a solid from a liquid using a filter  
🗑

🗑
What does it mean when substances in a mixture maintain there physical properties?   looks, acts, or feels different but is the same substance.  
🗑
How is an ice cube an example of a physical change?   Because it is still water just in a solid state.

🗑
How could you separate salt water?   evaporation  
🗑
Why is a solution a mixture?   Because you can separate it.  
🗑
What tool would you use to separate iron from a mixture?   magnets  
🗑
When does a solute dissolve in a solvent at a faster rate?   When the water temp is hot, particle size is smaller and rate of stirring is increased  
🗑
When is a solution more concentrated?   When there is more solute than solvent, or when there is less solvent than solute  
🗑
Why is a solution a mixture?   Because it can be seperated
