What is volume?

Back

Volume is the amount of space that a substance or object occupies, typically measured in cubic centimeters (cm³) or liters (L).

How do you measure the volume of a liquid?

Back

The volume of a liquid can be measured using a graduated cylinder, which allows for precise readings of liquid levels.

Front

What is the formula for calculating the volume of a rectangular prism?

Back

Volume = length × width × height.

Front

What is density?

Back

Density is the mass of an object divided by its volume, often expressed in grams per cubic centimeter (g/cm³).

Front

How do you determine which object has a higher density?

Back

To determine which object has a higher density, compare their mass-to-volume ratios.

Front

What is solubility?

Back

Solubility is the ability of a substance to dissolve in another substance, usually measured in grams of solute per 100 grams of solvent.

Front

What is the melting point?

Back

The melting point is the temperature at which a solid becomes a liquid.

Front

What is the boiling point?

Back

The boiling point is the temperature at which a liquid turns into vapor.

Front

What is the difference between mass and weight?

Back

Mass is the amount of matter in an object, while weight is the force exerted by gravity on that mass.

Front

What lab tool is used to measure mass?

Back

A balance or scale is used to measure the mass of an object.
