| Weight | The measure of how much gravitational force is exerted on an object. The SI unit for expressing this force is the Newton (N). |
| Matter | Anything that has mass and takes up space (volume). |
| Density | The amount of mass (matter) in a given volume (space). the common SI unit for liquids is g/ml. How compact a substance is. |
| Physical Property | A property of matter that can be observed and measured without changing the matter's identity. |
