Matter is anything that has
mass and volume
Electrical conductivity is the measure of
material’s ability to carry moving charges
resistivity of materials affects
how much electric current is able to pass.
smaller resistivity == ____ electric current
better
Thermal conductivity is the measure of material’s ability to
allow heat to pass through by conduction
Melting point is the temperature where it changes from
solid state to liquid state.
Boiling point is the temperature where it changes from
liquid state to gaseous state.
Strength is the ability of a material to
support a heavy load without changing its shape permanently.
Hardness can be measured via
resistance of a material to wear and tear, stretching and indentation
flexibility is ability of a material to
bend without breaking
