Chapter 2 Properties of Matter Flashcards
A measure of gravitational force on mass
weight
the resistance to a change in motion
inertia
the amount of matter in an object
mass
anything that has mass and volume
Matter
What would happen to the most dense layer
sinks to the bottom
What would happen to the least dense layer
float to the top
Water density
1g/ml
more than 1g/ml
will sink
less than 1g/ml
float
mass
grams
volume
liters or milliliters
Formula to calculate Density
D=m/v
If a mass of an object has 6g, and a volume of 3mL, the density would be
2g/mL
What chemical property is responsible for iron rusting
Reactivity with oxygen
Why is the motion of a 200g wheel more difficult to change than the motion of a 50 g wheel
The 200g wheel has more mass than the 50g wheel
