Properties of Matter JEOPARDY REVIEW
Vocab
100 – What does a
graduated cylinder
measure?
volume
200 – What 2 things
does matter have to
have?
mass, volume (takes
up space)
300 – What is the
difference between
mass and weight?
Weight changes with
gravitational pull
and mass is how
much matter is in
something…will
always be the same
400 – What is
displacement?
It is water being
pushed aside by an
object placed in it
Volume
Density
Buoyancy
Miscellaneous
100- How can you find
the volume of
something without
finding its length,
width, or height?
Water displacement
200 – An object has
dimensions of 2, 5, and
10 cm. What is its
volume?
100 cm cubed
100 – What is density? Don’t
give the formula.
How heavy something is
compared to its size
100 – What is the
buoyant force? The
force pushing an
object up when it is in
a fluid
100 – Does an anchor
have negative or
positive buoyancy?
negative
200 – What is the formula for
finding density?
Density = mass ÷ volume
200 – The sides of a
cube measure 4 cm.
What is the volume of
the cube?
64 cm3
300 – What did
Archimedes do?
Discovered water
displacement while
taking a bath; proved
the goldsmith was
cheating the King of
gold
300 – What is the density of a
rock that has a mass of 48
grams and a volume of 12
cm3? Include units!
48 ÷ 12 = 4 g/cm3
200 - If the force of
gravity is stronger than
the buoyant force, will
the object sink or float?
What do we call this?
Sink – negative
buoyancy
300 - If the buoyant
force is stronger than
the force of gravity, will
the object sink or float?
What do we call this?
Float – positive
buoyancy
400 -- How do you know
if something will float or
sink in water? If its
density is bigger than
water’s density, 1
g/ml, it will sink. If it
is less than 1, it will
float
500 – How do you know
what the buoyant force
is?
It is equal to the
weight of water
displaced
400 – Explain what
neutral buoyancy is.
The object doesn’t
float or sink. Buoyant
force/gravity are about
equal.
400 – A graduated
cylinder is filled with 78
ml of water. A rock is
dropped in. The water
level rises to 93. What
is the volume of the
rock?
15 cm3
500 – Describe a fluid. 500 – Describe the 2
What 2 states of
ways volume can be
matter can be fluids?
found.
A fluid is anything
L X W X H and water
that flows; it can be
displacement
gases or liquids
400 – How did Archimedes use
the concept of density to prove
the goldsmith used silver mixed
in with the gold? Gold has a
larger density than silver, so
Archimedes showed the
crown took up more space
than an equal weight of gold
500 – How can 2 objects have
the same volume but different
masses?
Density, one is a different
material
300 – What force works
against the buoyant
force?
gravity
500 – Aluminum’s
density is 2.7 g/ml.
Does it float or sink?
Why? It sinks since its
density is larger than
water’s.
