Matter
All gases, solids, and liquids in the world are made of this. Anything that has mass and takes up space.
Mass
The measure of the amount of matter in an object
Mass is often measured in ____________
Kilograms
Which object has more mass.... A golf ball or a balloon?
Golf ball
Which object has a greater volume....a golf ball or a balloon?
Balloon
Volume
How much space a sample of matter takes up
Volume of an object is usually measured in _______________
Milliliters (mL)
What tool or object is used to measure mass of a solid object?
A balance
What instruments can be used to measure a liquid mass?
Graduated cylinder
Beaker
Measuring cup
How do you measure the volume of a solid that has a regular shape?
L x W x H
How do you find the volume of an irregular shaped solid?
Water displacement
Lower object into water of known volume, find volume of known + object. Subtract the difference.
Weight
The force of gravity between Earth and the object
How to find mass of a book
Compare it to known mass (on a balance) and find its volume (lxwxh).
A Newton
A unit of measurement of the force of gravity between two objects that apply a push or pull
An object's weight can change due to its ______________ in the unverse
Location
Would you weigh more or less on the moon? Why?
Less on moon because the moon has less mass than Earth so the force is less.
Would your mass remain the same on Moon as it is on the Earth?
Remains the same
Density
How massive an object is for it's size
Math formula to find density of an object
Mass of object divided by its volume
What can possibly and slightly change the density of an object?
Temperature
The property used to help identify unknown objects or subsrances
Density
An objects mass is dependent upon the type of _______________ it has
Particles
If an object has many packed particles in a small space, the density has high or low density
High
Low density means....
Only a few particles in a certain amout of space
In general, matter in a __________ state is more _________ than in a liquid state.

Hydrogen
Density of an object will determine if something will ___________ or __________ in water
Sink or float
If an object has less density in water, the object will _____________
Float
If an object has a greater density than water than it will ___________
Sink
Buoyancy
An object's ability to float
Name an object more dense than water

North poles and south poles ______________ each other
Attract
Two magnetic poles that are the same _________ each other
Repel
A metal made of _______ can attract a magnet
Iron
________ is actually a huge magnet
Earth
List the properties of matter What are aerogels
Mass
Volume
Density
Conductors/nonconductors
Magnetism aerogels are insulators with low density and great strength in windows
