Unit 1 - Physical Properties of Matter
Instructional
Goals
1. Define mass and volume. Compare
and contrast mass and volume
3. Represent data using a histogram.
4. Use a histogram to interpret trends in data.
5. Develop, from experimental evidence,
the law of conservation of mass.
Online Practice
6. Relate the volume of a container (in cm3) to the volume of liquid it contains (mL).
7. Recognize that instruments have
a limit to their precision. Relate the data recorded to the quality of the measurement
8. Given a graph of mass vs. volume of
various substances, relate the slope to the density of the substance.
Online Practice
9. Recognize that density is a characteristic property of mater.
10. Use density as a quantitative conversion
factor between mass and volume.
Online Practice
11. Use differences in
density fo solids, liquids, and gases as evidence for differences in the structure of matter in these phases.
