Tools for Measuring some Physical Properties of Matter Fill in your vocabulary map with the following information!
1. mass: measure of the amount of matter in an object unit: gram tool: triple beam balance (TBB) http://ts1.mm.bing.net/images/thumbnail.aspx?q=232418975892id=0b9f8b3b1e1b7fab047a973cb36dfbd1url=http%3a%2f%2fwww.laddresearch.com%2fNew_Products%2fOhaus_Balances___Scales%2fTriple_Beam_Balances_-_Standar%2fTrip
2. volume: measure of amount of space occupied by an object unit: milliliters (mL) or cubic centimeters (cm3) tool: graduated cylinder mL 1 mL = 1 cm3 cm cm cm cm x cm x cm = cm3
3. density: measure of amount of matter in a given space g/mL OR g/cm3 unit: TBB AND graduated cylinder tool: http://ts1.mm.bing.net/images/thumbnail.aspx?q=232418975892id=0b9f8b3b1e1b7fab047a973cb36dfbd1url=http%3a%2f%2fwww.laddresearch.com%2fNew_Products%2fOhaus_Balances___Scales%2fTriple_Beam_Balances_-_Standar%2fTrip density = mass g volume mL matter space
4. length: measure of distance from one point to another unit: centimeters (cm) or millimeters (mm) tool: ruler ruler%2520cm%2520with%2520zero%2520mark%2520not%2520at%2520edge
5. temperature: measure of how fast the particles in an object are moving http://ts4.mm.bing.net/images/thumbnail.aspx?q=234606760067id=605244f4e8fe685745399fdb0437f617url=http%3a%2f%2fwww.rockingham.k12.va.us%2fsound_sorting%2finitial_diagraphs%2fth%2fimages%2fthermometer.jpg unit: degrees Celsius (0C) or Fahrenheit (0F) tool: thermometer For Water: B pt.= 100 0C F pt.= 0 0C For Water: B pt.= 212 0F F pt.= 320F
6. weight: measure of the amount of gravitational pull on an object unit: newton (N) http://ts2.mm.bing.net/images/thumbnail.aspx?q=211677556941id=69a09ba954e8aa6c1e771f9d4cf608aburl=http%3a%2f%2fwww.amep.com%2fprodPix%2fscience%2fDD7-G63.jpg tool: spring scale
