Earth system Flashcards
science (20 cards)
Any property that can be observed using the five sensors or can be measured without change matter.
Physical properties
Wait- how heavy an object is ( mass is how much’’ stuff’’( matter) something is made of)
Wait/ mass
A matter that maintains its own shape instead of conforming the shades of its container.
Solid
Something that can flow and takes the shape up its container, like water or juice, but it has a fixed amount of space (volume), similar to how a solid stays the same size.
Liquid
It allows something like he or electricity to flow or pass through it easily.
Conduct
Energy that moves from something hot to something cold a four of energy.
Heat
a substance found in nature, minerals make up rock.
Minerals
How easily or difficult it is to scratch a mineral’s surface
Hardness
The cooler of its powder when you rub it on a hard, rough surface like a tile.
Streak
The colored powder left behind when a mineral is scrapped across the arm service
Tiles
It’s what light reflects back to our eyes. Minerals are colored because they absorb some colors of light and reflect the rest.
Color
How sunny a rock or mineral looks when the light shines on it, like a mirror, or glassy, or even dull. ( luster is of physical property used by neurologists to help identify minerals).
Luster
How some minerals break along smooth, flat lines instead of randomly, like when you crack an egg.
cleavage
Are you trying to scratch a rock with different objects ( like a fingernail or a penny) to see if it’s hard or soft.
Scratch test
A naturally formed combination of minerals and other natural minerals.
Rocks
A solid, naturally phone substance that always has the same demolition and the same properties.
Minerals
The’’ dirt dance stuff’’ that settles to the bottom of liquids, or is carried and then disposed by water, wind, or ice.
Sediment
Rocked formed from compact sediment.
sedimentary
A rock formed by Magma or lava.
igneous
Rock formed from existing rock; Heat and pressure causes the minerals to for new combinations or new crystals.
Metamorphic
