1.
Matter |
Anything that has mass and takes up space
|
|
|
2.
If you can taste, smell or touch something, it's matter |
Matter is made up of: tiny particles
|
|
|
3.
Things that are not matter are heat, light and ideas. They exist but don't take up space. |
...
|
|
|
4.
Mass |
The amount of matter something contains
|
|
|
5.
The more particles an object has, the more mass it has, the heavier it is. |
....
|
|
|
6.
Volume |
The amount of space that matter takes up....
|
|
|
7.
Density |
The amount of matter in an object compared to the space it takes up.
|
|
|
8.
You used a graduated cylinder (medicine cup) to measure the volume of water, corn syrup, and oil in the expiriment |
The density of corn syrup was more than the density of water, they took up the same amount of space, but the corn syrup had a greater mass.
|
|
|
9.
Physical Properties |
Something that you can observe or measure.
... Helps you tell things apart. |
|
|
10.
Examples of Physical Properties: |
...Mass, Volume and density
... Color, shape, texture (bumpy, smooth) |
|
|
11.
Staes of Matter |
One of three forms that matter can exist in.
... all matter is made of particles ... the arrangement of particles makes it solid, liquid or gas |
|
|
12.
The 3 States of Matter: |
... solid
... liquid ... gas |
|
|
13.
Solid |
State of matter that has a definite shape and volume
...particles that are packed together in a tight pattern. |
|
|
14.
Particles that are too tightly packed to move.... vibrate |
... Solid have an exact shape... and take up a certain amount of space
|
|
|
15.
Liquids |
State of matter that has a definite volume but no definite shape
... |
|
|
16.
*** In a liquid state... particles have more movement than a solid. |
*** Liquids take the shape of the container
|
|
|
17.
Gas |
The state of matter that does not have a definite shape or volume. Particles move the fastest... particles move away and spread out.
