| weight | the measure of the pull of gravity on an object |
| gravity | the force of attraction that exists between two objects |
| mass | the amount of matter in an object |
| grams | base unit of measurement for mass |
| volume | the amount of space an object takes up |
| Formula for Volume | length x width x height |
| A scale used to measure mass | balance scale |
| density | a measure of the amount of matter in a given volume |
| Formula for Density | mass/volume |
| An object with a greater density than that of water will | sink |
| An object with less density than that of water will | float |
| buoyancy | the ability of an object to float |
