1. Matter has mass and volume.
LESSON 1.1
Matter has mass and volume.

2. MATTER
Def: anything that has mass and takes up space Examples: air, pencils, books, skate boards and YOU All matter is made of atoms.

3. MEASURING MASS
Def: how much matter an object contains Unit of measure – gram (g) Tool used for measuring – Triple Beam Balance Mass always stays the same

4. MEASURING WEIGHT
Def: downward pull on an object due to gravity Measured with a scale – usually a spring scale Unit of measure – pound Weight changes as the pull of gravity changes

5. MEASURING VOLUME
Def: amount of space matter occupies Can be determined 2 ways: 1) Formula: length x width x height Tool: metric ruler Unit: cm³

6. 2) Volume by Displacement used for irregular shaped objects
MEASURING VOLUME
2) Volume by Displacement
used for irregular shaped objects
Tool – graduated cylinder
Unit – mL
Measure amount of water to start, then measure water level after the object is added, then subtract. Difference = volume
