Chapter 7.1: Matter and Its Properties Flashcards

- differentiate the states of matter using shape and volume - explain the movement of particles in solids, liquids, and gases - differentiate between physical and chemical properties - calculate density, manipulate formula of density to calculate for mass or volume - understand how properties of a substance can be used to identify a substance

Q

Mass and weight are the same thing, true or false?

A

False. Mass is the amount of matter in an object and is measured in kilograms. Weight depends on gravity so can change and is measured in Newtons.

Q

What is weight measured in?

A

Newtons.

17
Q

What does the weight of an object depend on?

A

Gravity.

18
Q

If a man has a mass of 100 kg on Earth, what will happen to his mass if he goes to the moon?

A

His mass will stay at 100 kg. Mass does not change with gravity.

19
Q

If a man has a mass of 100 kg on Earth, what will happen to his weight if he goes to the moon?

A

His mass will stay the same but his weight will be less because gravity is less on the moon.

20
Q

Jupiter has a much stronger force of gravity than Earth. If you went there, what would happen to your weight and mass?

A

Mass would be the same as Earth but you would have a heavier weight (feel heavier) because of gravity.

21
Q

What is the equation for density?

A

mass (in grams)
Density (g/mL) = *******
volume (in mL)

22
Q

An object with a mass of 40 grams and a volume of 20 mL will have a density of?

A

40g divided by 20 mL = 2 g/mL

23
Q

Name 5 physical properties of an object.

A

Pick any 5 of these answers: Mass, density, volume, solubility, melting and boiling point, conduct electricity and magnetic.

24
Q

What is defined as, “the ability of one material to dissolve in another”?

A

Solubility.

25
Q

Is magnetism a physical or chemical property?

A

Physical property.

26
Q

“The ability or inability of a substance to combine with or change into one or more new substances” is this the definition of a physical or chemical property?

A

A chemical property.

27
Q

Is the ability to rust a chemical or physical property?

A

Chemical property.

28
Q

Is flammability a physical or chemical property?

A

Chemical property.

29
Q

Name three ways that mixtures can be separated.

A

Magnetism.
Boiling point.
Separation by state of matter (a solid floating in a liquid).

30
Q

Is density a chemical or physical property?

A

A physical property.
