1. “I Can” Study Guide Unit 1-2
I can define the general requirements / characteristics of Matter
I can recognized how matter is structured from small to complex with the ideas of elements and atoms
I can identify, locate, and characterize the particles that make up an atom
I can recognize the significance of size and numbers when it comes to atoms
I can define temperature and heat and understand their difference with examples
I can predict the direction of flow of heat (thermal) energy in a given situation
I can define solids, liquids, gases, and plasmas and provide examples
I can characterize how particles behave in all states of matter and how this relates to energy
I can explain how and why matter changes form with the proper vocabulary
I can apply the ideas of shape and volume to the various states of matter
I can begin to identify the basic differences between weight and mass
I can explain the concept of buoyancy (history, variables, examples)**
I can define density, identify the properties that determine it, and the SI units involved
I can predict how substance of different densities will behave and interact
I can recall the density formula and plug in real values
I can mathematically calculate density given any two of the three variables
Review:
I can identify metric (SI) units and match them with what property they measure
I can compare and convert meters to and from millimeters, centimeters and kilometers
I can place information on a graph and understand information off a graph
I can identify the main ways to graph and when each is appropriate
