1. Physical Properties of Matter

2. Classify Grouping matter together based on similar traits

3. Properties Describe matter by its mass, magnetism, state, density, solubility, and if it’s a conductor/insulator

4. Matter Anything that has mass and takes up space

5. Mass How much matter is in an object

6. Physical State Solid, Liquid, or Gas

7. Solid Definite shape, definite volume

8. Liquid No definite shape but has definite volume; takes shape of its container

9. Gas No definite shape, no definite volume

10. Magnetism Property of attraction to a magnet

11. Solubility The ability to dissolve

12. Relative Density Objects that are more dense will sink; objects that are less dense will float

13. Buoyancy The ability to float More Dense=Sink Less Dense=Float

14. Conductor Allows heat and/or electricity to pass through; All metals are good conductors.

15. Insulator Slows down or stops the flow of electric current or heat; Does not allow heat or electricity to pass through

16. Flexibility Capable of being bent
