| Scientific Method | An organized way of using the steps to solve a problem or question |
| Density | how closely packed the material is with a constant volume |
| mass | how heavy an object is |
| How to find mass | Use a triple beam balance |
| Volume | the measurement of how much stuff (liquid, solid, or gas) will fit into a given amount of space |
| How to find volume of irregular solid | Water displacement method |
| Water displacement | Object placed in fluid causes it to rise its own volume |
| Hypothesis | an educated guess of what will happen in an experiment |
| Control | Something normal that you compare your experiment to |
| Independent variable | the variable that you can set or manipulate in an experiment |
| Dependent variable | the variable the you are measuring for in an experiment |
| Constant | the variables that you do not change in an experiment |
| Qualitative observations | Using descriptors (adjectives) to describe what is observed in an experiment |
| Quantitative observations | Using numbers to describe what is observed in an experiment |
| Direct relationship | As x increases, y is increasing as well causing an upward slope on a line graph |
| Solid | the phase in which most substances except water have their highest density |
| Density formula | D=m/v |
| Graduated cylinder | Used to measure the volume of a liquid |
| Triple beam balance | Used to find the mass of an object |
| Volume of a regular solid | Length x Width x Height |
