Control

A sample that is treated like the other experimental groups except that the

independent variable is not applied to it.

VariableFactor that can be changed

in an experiment

Independent The variable that is changed

Dependent The factor being measured

Independent Variable• The variable that YOU change in the experiment

50 mL water 100 mL water 200 mL water

Dependent Variable• The variable that

responds to the independent variable

• What changes because YOU changed something

50 mL 100 mL 200 mL

Height of Plant=(affects)

Mixture • Two or more

substances put together that can be easily separated.

Solution

• A mixture of two or more substances dissolved to form one substance (difficult to separate).

Physical Property

•A characteristic that can be observed or measured

Shiny

Red

Soft

Box = 9 cm long

Density• Describes how much matter is

packed into a given space

More Dense Less Dense

Physical Change• Change in which only the physical properties

change, you still have the same substance

breaking a pencil dissolving sugar in water

Chemical Property• Describes how a substance will react

with other substances

A bike left out in the rain can rust.

Paper is flammable. (it can burn)

Chemical Change• Change in which new substances

form that have different properties from the original substances

Rusting Metal ChainBurning match produces

smoke and ash
