PRESENTATION OUTLINE

State
State is a solid, liquid, gas. Particles pack tightly together to create a solid. A wooden block is a solid.

Water is a liquid because particles bump into each other.
Gas is air. The particles spread far apart. They can also move rapidly and can also bump into each other.

Volume
Volume is the amount of space something takes up.
Liters,mL., cm3
Measure volume using length, width,and height multiply all three numbers together
Fill a beaker and note the the volume using mL. Then place the object in the beaker. Note the new reading. To find the volume of a solid object,find the difference between the two volumes.
