- States of m___________ are the p__________ forms in which a substance
can exist , such as s________, l_________, g_____, and p_______.
- W_____ can exist in three states, s_______ ice, l_________ water, and water
v_________.
- Malleability is the ability of a substance to me pounded into thin
sheets.
- Aluminum can be rolled or pounded into thin sheets to make
Foil, because it is malleable.
- Solubility is the ability of one substance to dissolve in another
Substance.
- Oil will insoluble in water. It floats of top of oil because of its lower
density.
- Density is mass per unit (measured) volume .
- A golf ball has a higher density than a ping-pong ball.
- The property of being shiny is called luster. Metals typically have
luster or shine.
- Viscosity is the resistance of a fluid to want to flow. Water has a
