Volume

The group that you don’t change. A reference
Independent Variable
The Variable you change
Dependent Variable
A variable that is changed by another variable
Experiment Group
The group that you change
Solid
A state of matter is a structure with a set volume and shape. Solids vibrate instead of moving
What is Diffusion?
The movement of energy from high to low density
Liquid
A state of matter that is less dense and has a set volume but has an undefined shape
Gas
A state of matter that is spread out and has an undefined volume and shape
