Questions and Answers
  • 1. 

    Any substance with mass that takes up space. All ______________ has mass, volume, and density.

    • A.

      Mass

    • B.

      Color

    • C.

      Volume

    • D.

      Density

    • E.

      Matter

    Correct Answer
    E. Matter
    Explanation
    Matter refers to any substance with mass that takes up space. It encompasses all materials and objects around us, including solids, liquids, and gases. Mass, volume, and density are all properties of matter. Therefore, matter is the correct answer to this question.

    Rate this question:

  • 2. 

    The amount of space an object takes up.

    • A.

      Density

    • B.

      Mass

    • C.

      Volume

    • D.

      Matter

    • E.

      Transparency

    Correct Answer
    C. Volume
    Explanation
    Volume refers to the amount of space an object occupies. It is a physical quantity that measures the three-dimensional size of an object. In other words, volume tells us how much space an object takes up. It is commonly measured in units such as cubic meters or cubic centimeters. In the context of the given options, density refers to the mass of an object per unit volume, mass refers to the amount of matter in an object, and transparency refers to the ability of an object to transmit light. Therefore, volume is the correct answer as it directly relates to the amount of space an object occupies.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    The measure of how much mass is in a given volume.

    • A.

      Volume

    • B.

      Matter

    • C.

      Mass

    • D.

      Density

    • E.

      Luster

    Correct Answer
    D. Density
    Explanation
    Density is the measure of how much mass is in a given volume. It is a physical property that describes the compactness of a substance. The higher the density, the more mass is packed into a given volume. Density is calculated by dividing the mass of an object by its volume. It is commonly used in various scientific fields, such as chemistry and physics, to determine the characteristics and behavior of different materials.

    Rate this question:

  • 4. 

    The hue of an object; The smell of an object; How shiny a metal is;

    Correct Answer
    Odor, color, luster
    Explanation
    The correct answer is odor, color, luster. Odor refers to the smell of an object, color refers to the hue of an object, and luster refers to how shiny a metal is. These three characteristics are used to describe and differentiate objects based on their sensory properties.

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    How well an object can be seen through; How hard an object is; How well a liquid dissolves; The ability to be flattened or bent without breaking.

    Correct Answer
    Transparency, hardness, resistance to breaking, dissolvability, malleability
    Explanation
    The answer provided lists different properties of objects: transparency, hardness, resistance to breaking, dissolvability, and malleability. Transparency refers to how well an object can be seen through, hardness refers to how hard an object is, resistance to breaking refers to the ability of an object to withstand force without breaking, dissolvability refers to how well a liquid can dissolve the object, and malleability refers to the ability of an object to be flattened or bent without breaking.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    The ability to transfer heat.

    • A.

      Electrical conductivity

    • B.

      Thermal conductivity

    • C.

      Malleability

    • D.

      Disolvability

    • E.

      Hardness

    Correct Answer
    B. Thermal conductivity
    Explanation
    Thermal conductivity refers to the ability of a material to transfer heat. It is a measure of how well a material conducts heat through it. Materials with high thermal conductivity can efficiently transfer heat, while those with low thermal conductivity are poor conductors of heat. This property is important in various applications, such as in the design of heat sinks, insulation materials, and cooking utensils.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    The ability to transfer electricity.

    • A.

      Electrical conductivity

    • B.

      Malleability

    • C.

      Dissolvability

    • D.

      Thermal conductivity

    • E.

      Electricity

    Correct Answer
    A. Electrical conductivity
    Explanation
    Electrical conductivity refers to the property of a material to allow the flow of electric current. It is the ability of a substance to transfer electricity through its particles or atoms. Materials that are good conductors of electricity, such as metals, have a high electrical conductivity, while insulators have low electrical conductivity. This property is crucial in various applications, including the transmission of electricity in power lines and the functioning of electronic devices.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    What are the phases of matter?

    • A.

      Density; volume; mass

    • B.

      Solid; Liquid; Gas

    • C.

      Kinetic Energy; Potential Energy; Stored Energy

    Correct Answer
    B. Solid; Liquid; Gas
    Explanation
    The phases of matter refer to the different states in which matter can exist. Solid, liquid, and gas are the three main phases of matter. In the solid phase, particles are tightly packed and have a fixed shape and volume. In the liquid phase, particles are close together but can move freely, taking the shape of their container. In the gas phase, particles are far apart and move rapidly, filling the entire space available to them. Density, volume, and mass are properties of matter, but they do not represent the phases of matter.
