Matter is ..
Anything that has mass and volume
Which of the following statement(s) about thermal expansion are true?
When the temperature of a substance increases, its volume increases and when the temperature of a substance decreases, its volume decreases.
Which of the following determines the volume of a gas?

Define viscosity
The thickness or thinness of fluids is a property called viscosity. Viscosity is the resistance of a fluid to flow.
True or False: Fluids with a high viscosity flow very fast.
False
According to particle theory, particles are constantly in motion. However, when particles have difficulty moving past one another, this is known as …
internal friction
Define flow rate
Flow Rate measures the speed at which a fluid flows from one point to another.
True or False: When adding heat to a liquid, the fluid flows more quickly.
True
True or False: When adding heat to a gas, the fluid flows more quickly.
False
True or False: When removing heat from a gas, the fluid flows more quickly.
