Takes up space, has mass, exhibits inertia

The study of matter and energy and more importantly, the changes between them

Hypotheses that are assembled in an attempt at explaining “why” and “what” happened

Law of Conservation of Mass

Correctness; agreement of a measurement with the true value

Reproducibility; degree of agreement among several measurements

Equal probability of a measurement being high or low

Errors that occur in the same direction each time

What is density?

Name the state of matter: Rigid; definite shape and volume

Name the state of matter: Definite volume, but takes on the shape of the container

Name the state of matter: No definite volume and takes on the shape of the container

Name the state of matter: Molecules close together vibrating about fixed points

Name the state of matter: Molecules vibrate but also have rotational and translational motion and can slide past one another bit are still close

Name the state of matter: Molecules vibrate, rotate, and translate and are independent of each other; very far apart

The gas phase of a substance that is normally a solid or a liquid at room temperature

Name the state of matter: Virtually incompressible

Name the state of matter: Slightly compressible

Name the state of matter: Highly compressible

That which can flow; gases and liquids

Matter that can be physically separated
