Chapter Two Flashcards
Use this to study for the Chapter Two Science Test!
mass
the amount of matter in an object; a measure of inertia
inertia
objects resist a change in motion;
weight
measured of gravitational force and can change depending upon location (like in space)
physical change
matter keeps its identity, but the shape or form may change
chemical change
the object’s identity and properties change
physical property
can be observed without changing the identity of the matter
chemical property
can be observed only during a chemical change; it can change the matter’s identity
volume
the amount of space occupied by an object
density
the amount of mass in a given volume
measurements of liquid volume
milliters or Liters
measurements of solid volume
cubic centimeters or cubic meters
Signs of a chemical change
Change of color, change of identity, nonflammability, flammability, heat; production of sound, light or heat
measurement of mass
grams and kilograms
measurements of density
grams per milliliter, grams per Liter, kilograms per Liter, kilograms per milliliter, milligrams per milliliter, milligrams per Liter
characteristic properties
density, solubility, reactivity (they can be both chemical and physical properties)
