Volume and density
Equation for converting Celsius to kelvin
K=t(c)+273.15
Equation for converting Kelvin to Celsius
C=t(k)-273.15
Tells how close the individual measurements are to each other.
Precision
Describes how close the measurement is to the accepted value
Accuracy
Proposed explanation for an observation
Hypothesis
Tested explanation for a broad set of observations.
Theory
Standard use for comparison
Control
Variable that is manipulated
Independent variable
Variable that is observed, responds to independent variable.
Dependent variable
Equation of the error and percent error
Error=experimental-accepted
Percent error= error/accepted x 100
Ability of a substance to undergo a specific chemical change. Examples.
Chemical property
- decomposition
- rust
- acid
- water
- combustion
Quality of a substance that can be observed without changing the substances composition.Example.
Physical property
- hardness
- color
- conductivity
- malleability
Change that produces matter with a different result than the original matter. Examples.
Chemical change
- color change
- light or energy involved
Properties of a material change, but the composition of the material doesn’t.
Physical change
- dissolving
- changes in state
Depends of the type in a sample, NOT the amount of matter.
Intensive property
- density
- absorbency
Dependent upon the amount of matter in a sample.examples.
Extensive property
- mass
- volume
- length
The shape of a solid is…
