Q

GCF
greatest common factor

A

similar to prime factorization but instead of stopping at the prime numbers you choose the factor that is the same between two numbers

if they both share two numbers then multiply them together to get the GCF

Q

what are the least common multiples? (of 2 and 5)

A

first give multples of each number.

multiples of 2 are 2,4,6,8,10,12,14,16,18,20
multples of 5 are 5,10,15,20

pick the common multiples which are 10 and 20.
from that, pick the least common multiple, which is 10.

96
Q

what is a substance in chemistry

A

It can be made up of pure elements or pure compounds, but not mixtures of elements or mixtures of compounds.

Substances must have a definite chemical composition and distinct chemical properties.

97
Q

If gravity changes, is mass and/or weight affected?

A

mass is unaffected, but weight it affected. mass is simply the amount of matter an object contains.

98
Q

volume is dependant on:

3 things

Q

in chemistry, a color change indicates..

A

The atoms in a liquid have enough energy to break loose from each other, but not enough to escape completely.

102
Q

gasses

A

The atoms in gases have enough energy to completely escape from each other and will move far apart. Gases will expand to fill the space they are given. They have very low densities and have no definite shape or volume.
