    Study Notes

    Matter

    • Matter is anything that has volume and mass.
    • Volume is the amount of space something takes up.
    • Solids, liquids and gases all have volume.
    • Air is made up of gases, and takes up space.

    States of Matter

    • Matter exists in three states: solid, liquid, and gas.

    Temperature and Volume

    • The volume of matter changes with temperature.
    • Heating matter usually causes an increase in volume.
    • Cooling matter usually causes a decrease in volume.
    • Gases change volume more easily than solids.
    • They fill whatever container they are in.
    • Gases expand when heated under constant pressure.
    • Cooler gas usually has a smaller volume.

    Mass and Inertia

    • Mass is the amount of matter in an object.
    • Objects with more mass are harder to move.
    • Inertia is the tendency of an object to resist changes in motion.
    • Objects with more mass have more inertia.
