Document Summary

Results in results of other units: in x in x in = in^3, v = lwh. An object with less density than another will float: water and wood. Measure of the quantity of matter within and ovject. Weight depends on gravitational pull while mass does not. Everything is made of matter: something that has mass and takes up space. Subatomic particles that are building blocks of matter. States of matter: gas, liquid and solid. Liquids: have a fixed volume because atoms of molecules are close together and assume the shape of a given container, have a fixed volume but not a fixed shape. Solids: have a fixed volume and a fixed shape, crystalline solid. Arranged in a pattern in repeating order. Atoms or molecules that do not have a long range order rubber, glass, plastic. Gas: separated by large distance, not in contact with one another so they are compressible, assume the shape and volume of their container.
