  1. Properties of Materials The quick review

  2. Properties shared by All Matter • Mass • Volume • Density • Know what these are!

  3. Matter in Different Materials Can Have Different Properties • characteristics it possesses by itself (in and of itself) • “personal” traits • response to energy

  4. Color texture melting point boiling point solubility luster density Magnetism viscosity Physical Properties

  5. Physical Properties • Electrical properties • conductor or insulator • Optical properties – response to light • transparent– light passes through • translucent – some light passes through but no distinct image • opaque – no light passes through

  6. Physical Properties • Thermal properties – response to heat • Conductivity- does heat energy travel easily through the material? • Steel rod, plastic spoon, glass rod, wood dowel test.

  7. Mechanical PropertiesExamples • workability • malleability – can be flattened • ductility – can be drawn into wire (stretched), bent, or extruded

  8. Mechanical PropertiesExamples • brittleness • breaks instead of deforming when stress is applied • hardness • resistance to denting or scratching

  9. Mechanical PropertiesExamples • elasticity • ability to return to original shape after being deformed by stress • rubber ball or piece of elastic
