VISCOSITYThe measure of a

fluid’s resistance to flow.

High Viscosity – thick Low Viscosity - thin

CONDUCTIVITYThe measure of the ease at which an electric charge or

heat can pass through a material.

MALLEABILITY

The ability of a substance, usually a metal, to be

deformed or molded into a different shape.

HARDNESSThe measure of how

resistant solid matter is to change in shape when

a force is applied.

MELTING POINT

Temperature at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid during a

phase change.

BOILING POINTTemperature at which a

substance changes from a liquid to a gas

during a phase change

DENSITYThe qualitative manner that is used to

measure the relative “heaviness” of objects with a constant volume.

Density = m/vamount of mass/unit of volume

Each element and compound has a unique density associated with it.

EX: Lead =11.34 g/cm^3 Aluminum =2.7 g/cm^3 Water = 1.0 g/cm^3
