How fast molecules are moving.
|
|
Define pressure.
|
The number of collisions between molecules.
|
|
Describe the relationship between temperature and pressure. (What happens when temperature goes up?)
|
When temperature goes up, pressure goes up.
|
|
Describe the relationship between temperature and volume. (What happens when temperature goes up?)
|
When temperature goes up, volume goes up.

|
|
What is the formula for density?
|
Mass divided by volume.
|
|

|
4/5 g/mL (0.80 g/mL)
|
|
What is the density of a cube of dry ice with a mass of 231 g and a volume of 300 mL?
|
231 divided by 300 = 0.77 g/mL
|
|
What is the density of water?
|
1 g/mL
|
|
What happens to an object when it is placed in a pool and the object has a density of 9 g/mL? Why?
|
It sinks because its density is higher than 1 g/mL (which is what water is)
|
|
What happens to an object when it is placed in a pool and it has a density of 0.8 g/ml?
|
It floats because its density is lower than 1 g/mL
|
|
Is oil more or less dense than water? Why?
|
Less dense because it floats in water
|
|
If an object floats in water is it more or less dense than water?
|
It is less dense than water.
