This study guide provides an overview of physical science topics, including the three forms of matter, electrical conductivity, magnets, circuits, states of matter, chemical changes, and heat and energy.
E N D
The three forms that matter usually takes: solid, liquid, and gas.
states of matter The three forms that matter usually takes: solid, liquid, and gas.
A single particle of matter made up of two or more atoms joined together.
Molecule A single particle of matter made up of two or more atoms joined together.
A change in the size, shape, or state of matter that does not change it into a new kind of matter.
physical change • A change in the size, shape, or state of matter that does not change it into a new kind of matter.
Conductors Material that an electrical charge can move through easily
electric circuit • A continuous flow of electric charges.
A strong temporary magnet that uses electricity to produce magnetism.
Electromagnet A strong temporary magnet that uses electricity to produce magnetism.
Insulators Materials that electric charges do not move through easily.
Magnet An object that attracts certain materials, mainly iron.
Mass The amount of matter in an object.
Atom The smallest particle of matter.
Matter Anything that has mass and take up space.
chemical change A change in matter that produces new kinds of matter.
An electric charge that builds up on a material like a balloon.
static electricity An electric charge that builds up on a material like a balloon.
series circuit • A circuit with one single pathway
magnet poles The two areas on a magnet with the greatest magnetic force.
parallel circuit • A circuit that has more than one pathway
Chemical Change An example is paper being turned into ash.
puddle of water Changing form a liquid to a gas is a change in state. Changes of state are __________ changes, so an evaporating puddle does not form a new kind of matter.
puddle of water Changing form a liquid to a gas is a change in state. Changes of state are physical changes, so an evaporating puddle does not form a new kind of matter.
molecules in a gas _________ _______ stay close together
molecules in a gas do not stay close together
____________ change Rust on a metal cookie sheet Wood burning in a campfire An Alka-Seltzer tablet bubbling in a cup of water Making blueberry muffins Paper burning
chemical change • Rust on a metal cookie sheet • Wood burning in a campfire • An Alka-Seltzer tablet bubbling in a cup of water • Making blueberry muffins • Paper burning
____________ change Folding a paper into the shape of a bird Paper being cut into the shape of a snowflake Water evaporating from a puddle A melting popsicle Breaking a window Liquid water becoming ice
