What’s the Matter? by Ms. Reardon
Standards: • S.5.P.1 Students will verify that an object is the sum of its parts. a. Demonstrate that the mass of an object is equal to the sum of its parts by manipulating and measuring different objects made of various parts. b. Investigate how common items have parts that are too small to be seen without magnification. • S.5.P.2 Students will explain the difference between a physical change and a chemical change. a. Investigate physical changes by separating mixtures and manipulating (cutting, tearing, folding) paper to demonstrate examples of physical change. b. Recognize that the changes in state of water ( water vapor/steam, liquid, ice) are due to temperature differences and are examples of physical change. c. Investigate the properties of a substance before, during ,and after a chemical reaction to find evidence of change.
Let’s See What You Know About the Properties of Matter? • Do you know the definition of any of these vocabulary terms? Physical change oxidation Chemical reaction matter weight mass volume decay density gravity
Matter: • Matter is everywhere you look, from the air you breathe to the shoes on your feet,that is because everything around you is made of matter. • The definition of matter is : anything that has mass and can take up space. • Objects made of matter can be very different from each other. We classify matter by their physical properties or their characteristics that can be observed or measured without changing the substance into something else.
Physical Properties of Matter: • Many physical properties of matter can be observed, such as, color, taste, hardness… • What are the physical properties of this apple? • Other physical properties need to be measured. These physical properties are: mass, weight, volume, and density.
Mass vs. Weight: • Although mass and weight may appear to be the same they are quite different. Which do you think is a more accurate way to measure the amount of matter in an object? Why?
Mass vs. Weight cont. • Below are pictures of the same space shuttle, look carefully at the pictures to answer these questions. • How does the mass of space shuttle A compare to space shuttle B? Explain. • How does the weight of space shuttle A compare to space shuttle B? Explain. Space Shuttle A Space Shuttle B
Volume: • Volumeis the amount of space that an object takes up. Measuring Volume:
Density: • Density is the concentration of matter in an object. It is the amount of matter in a certain volume. • Density = mass / volume Density is measured in g/cm3
Review of Physical Properties of Matter: • How can physical properties be used to identify objects and substances? • Does an object on Earth have the same mass as it does on the moon? • What physical properties are used to calculate the density of an object?
The States of Matter • Do you know the four states of matter?
States of Matter cont. Check out these websites to help you better understand the states of matter! • Read the information on this website and take the states of matter quiz! http://www.chem4kids.com/files/matter_states.html • Do you still want to know more?

Changes Between States of Matter(evaporation and condensation) • When energy is increased or decreased matter can change state. Evaporation Condensation inversely GAS GAS liquid liquid
Changes Between States of Matter (melting & boiling point) • The freezing point and melting point of a substance are the sametemperature! Freezing Point Melting Point liquid solid solid liquid Boiling Point gas liquid
