What is a magnet and how does it work?

Back

A magnet is an object that produces a magnetic field, attracting certain materials like iron, nickel, and cobalt. It works by aligning the magnetic domains within the material.

What are the properties of insulators?

Back

Insulators are materials that do not conduct electricity or heat well. Common examples include plastic, rubber, and styrofoam.

What is a solution in chemistry?

Back

A solution is a homogeneous mixture where one substance (the solute) is dissolved in another (the solvent), such as sugar in hot tea.

How do solutions differ from mixtures?

Back

Solutions are homogeneous and may change their physical properties, while mixtures are heterogeneous and retain their individual properties.

What is mass and how is it measured?

Back

Mass is the amount of matter in an object, typically measured in grams or kilograms using a balance.

What is the strongest type of magnet?

Back

The strongest type of magnet is typically a neodymium magnet, known for its powerful magnetic field.

What are some common examples of conductors?

Back

Common conductors include metals like copper, aluminum, and gold, which allow electricity to flow easily.

What is the difference between a solute and a solvent?

Back

A solute is the substance that is dissolved in a solution, while a solvent is the substance that dissolves the solute.

What is the principle of buoyancy?

Back

Buoyancy is the ability of an object to float in a fluid, determined by the object's density compared to the fluid's density.

Front

What is density and how is it calculated?

Back

Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance, calculated using the formula: Density = Mass/Volume.
