• Can be felt

• Has mass and is a solid

• Can be measured with a ruler

How can we best describe a liquid?

• All liquids are wet and visible

• All liquids can be poured and take the shape of their container

• Liquids are clear and do not change shape

• Liquids have volume but no mass

How can we best describe a solid?

• Solids take the shape of their container

• Solids have mass but no volume

• Solids can be poured

• Solids have a defined shape

How can we best describe a gas?

• Gasses fill the space they are in and move in no pattern

• Gasses have a defined shape

• Gasses have volume but no mass

• Gasses have mass but no volume

What is volume?

• The amount of weight an object has

• The amount of space an object takes up

• The amount of matter inside an object

• The amount of space inside of an object

How can we measure the volume of an irregular object? (such as a crayon)

• Use a graduated cylinder to measure water displacement

• Use a scale and weigh it
