- mass
- volume
- extensive property
- intensive property
- substance
- physical property
- solid
- liquid
- gas
- vapor
- physical change
Steps to Success:
(1) Take a full sheet of paper and divide it vertically into 3 columns. The left column contains a list of the terms above. The middle column is to be YOUR present definition of the term. The right column is the "official" definition you get from Google or some other source.
