Property of Matter

John has a toy plane that is green, made of iron (metal) and weighs 100 grams. If the student drops the car in a grassy field, how could the student find his toy car?

• Use a magnifier lens to find the plane by its color.

• Place a sample of the field in water to find out its density.

• Weight samples of the area to find a sample that is 100 g.

• Place a magnet over the area to attract the plane.
