Relative density

• Anything that has mass and takes up space

• Objects that are more dense sink in water; less dense objects float in water

• Measurement of the ability of a solid to dissolve in a liquid

• The classification of matter as a solid, liquid, or a gas

Physical State

• Material that slows down or stops electric current or thermal energy from flowing

• The classification of matter as a solid, liquid, or a gas

• Material that allows electric current or thermal energy to flow through easily

• Measureable characterisitics: mass, magnetism, physical state, relative density, solubility, and the ability to insulate or conduct heat or electricity
