IDAHO PROPERTY TEST REVIEW QUESTIONS
WITH A 100% CORRECT ANSWERS
matter -✔✔ anything that has mass and takes up space
volume -✔✔ the amount of space taken up, or occupied, by an object;
volume = length x width x height
meniscus -✔✔ the curve at a liquid's surface by which one measures the
volume of a liquid
mass -✔✔ the amount of matter in an object
weight -✔✔ a measure of the gravitational force exerted on an object; its
value can change with the location of the object in the universe
inertia -✔✔ the tendency of an object to resist a change in motion; an
object at rest will remain as rest until something causes the object to move;
a moving object will keep moving at the same speed and in the same
direction unless something acts on the object to change its speed or
direction
physical property -✔✔ can be observed or measured without changing the
matter's identity, such as density, color, or hardness
, density -✔✔ the ratio of the mass of a substance to the volume of the
substance; the amount of matter in a given space, or volume
physical change -✔✔ a change of matter from one form/state to another
without a change in chemical properties
chemical property -✔✔ a property of matter that describes a substance's
ability to change into new matter that has different properties
chemical change -✔✔ a change that occurs when one or more substances
change into entirely new substances with different properties
states of matter -✔✔ the physical forms of matter, which include solid,
liquid, and gas
solid -✔✔ the state of matter in which the volume and shape of a
substance are fixed
liquid -✔✔ the state of matter that has a definite volume but not a definite
shape
surface tension -✔✔ the force that acts on the surface of a liquid and that
tends to minimize the area of the surface
viscosity -✔✔ the resistance of a gas or liquid to flow
gas -✔✔ a form of matter that does not have a definite volume or shape
the larger an object's mass, the -✔✔ larger its inertia
