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.
