Matching Measurement Terms

Match these items

1. system of measurement used by scientists: metric system

2. amount of space that matter takes up: volume

3. measure of the amount of matter: gram

4. one-thousandth of a kilogram: millimeter

5. one-hundredth: centi-

6. one thousand meters: kilometer

7. one-thousandth of a meter: kilo-

8. one thousand: liter

9. standard unit of volume: liter

10. standard unit of mass: kilogram

Final answer: The metric system is used by scientists. Volume is the space that matter occupies. A gram measures the amount of matter. A millimeter is one-thousandth of a meter. Centi- represents one-hundredth. A kilometer is one thousand meters. Kilo- represents one thousand. Liter is the standard unit of volume. A kilogram is both one-thousandth of a kilogram and the standard unit of mass. Finally, mass reflects the amount of matter.
