Study Notes

Volume of a Body

  • The space occupied by a body is called volume.
  • Volume of a liquid is measured by pouring it into a graduated tester and reading the scale at which the liquid level reaches.
  • Volume of liquid is usually measured in milliliters (ml), with 1000 ml equal to 1 liter.
  • Volume of a solid body is measured in cubic centimeters (cm3), with 1 cm3 equal to 1 ml.

Calculating Volume

  • Volume of a regular object, such as a solid cuboid, can be calculated by multiplying its length (L) by its width (Z) by its height (H): L x Z x H.
  • Volume of an irregular object is measured by displacing water in a laboratory, with the height of the displaced water in milliliters indicating the volume of the body in cubic centimeters.

States of Matter

  • Matter has three common states: solid, liquid, and gas.
  • Each state has its distinctive characteristics.

Solid State

  • Solids have a definite shape and take up a definite amount of space, regardless of the container.
  • Particles of matter in the solid state vibrate in place, with limited movement.
  • Solids are the densest state of matter, except for water.
  • Shape and size of a solid change only when it is heated or crushed.

Liquid State

  • Liquids do not have a specific shape and take the shape of the container.
  • Molecules in liquids are far apart, moving more freely than in solids but less than in gases.
  • Liquids have a slightly higher energy than solids and less than gases.
  • Density of a liquid increases when it turns into a solid.
  • Water is an exception, becoming less dense when it freezes.

Gaseous State

  • Gases do not have a specific shape and occupy any space.
  • Molecules in gases are in constant motion, spreading in every direction.
  • Gases are the least cohesive and dense of the three states of matter.
