Matter • Anything that takes up space and has mass
States of Matter • Solid • Liquid • Gas • Plasma
Mass • The amount of matter in an object • The gram is the metric unit for mass
Element • A class of substances that cannot be separated into simpler substances by chemical means • Examples: Hydrogen, Helium, Oxygen, Carbon, Gold, etc.
Physical Properties of Matter • Mass, Color, Volume • Color– The way light reflects off of matter and is perceived by the human eye
Physical Properties of Matter • Density – The amount of matter within a certain amount of volume, g/cm³ Divide mass by volume d= m/v • Which has a greater density? Bowling Ball or Soccer Ball
