1 Physical and Chemical Properties

2 Properties of Matter-Words to Know…

3 Anything that has mass and takes up space!
Matter Anything that has mass and takes up space!

4 Mass A measure of how much matter is in an object.

5 Weight A measure of the force of gravity on an object.

6 Volume The amount of space that matter occupies.

7 Density The measurement of how much mass of a substance is contained in a given volume. Mass/Volume I Density

8 States of Matter There are different “states” of matter. No, not like Texas, Oklahoma, New Mexico. States of matter are also known as phases (a physical state of matter). Elements and compounds can move from one phase to another phase when special physical forces are present. Solid Liquid Gas

9 Freezing point The temperature at which a liquid changes into a solid.

10 Boiling point The boiling point of an element or compound means the temperature at which the liquid form of an element or compound is at equilibrium with the gaseous form. the boiling point of water is 100 degrees Celsius.

11 Melting point The temperatures at which the solid form of the element or compound is at equilibrium with the liquid form. Basically the range at which the solid changes its state into a liquid. The melting point of water is 0 degrees Celsius

12 STATES OF MATTER SOLIDS
Particles of solids are tightly packed, vibrating about a fixed position. Solids have a definite shape and a definite volume. Heat

13 STATES OF MATTER LIQUID
Particles of liquids are tightly packed, but are far enough apart to slide over one another. Liquids have an indefinite shape and a definite volume. Heat

14 STATES OF MATTER GAS Particles of gases are very far apart and move freely. Gases have an indefinite shape and an indefinite volume. Heat

15 STATES OF MATTER PLASMA
A plasma is an ionized gas. A plasma is a very good conductor of electricity and is affected by magnetic fields. Plasmas, like gases have an indefinite shape and an indefinite volume. Plasma is the common state of matter

16 Some places where plasmas are found…
1. Flames

17 2. Lightning

18 3. Aurora (Northern Lights)

19 The Sun is an example of a star in its plasma state

20 Compound A substance made of two or more elements chemically combined in a set ratio. Water and salt are 2 examples of compounds.

21 All substances have properties… Including people!
Example: People can be identified by their … Face (shape, expressions) Voice Height Finger prints Eye color Hair color Teeth DNA

22 What are properties? Matter has observable and measurable qualities.
We can use general properties to identify substances. Two basic types of properties of matter: Physical properties and Chemical properties:

23 Physical Properties Physical properties are used to identify, describe and classify matter. Characteristic of a substance that can be observed (using your senses) without changing the substance into something else. Hardness Texture Color Odor Taste Temperature

24 More EXAMPLES - Physical
size, shape, freezing point, boiling point, melting point, magnetism, viscosity, density, luster and many more. Viscosity - The resistance of a liquid to flowing. Examples: Low viscosity-water, rubbing alcohol High viscosity-honey

25 Creating a new chemical product
Chemical Properties Chemical properties are characteristics involved when a substance interacts with another substance to change its chemical make-up. Flammability Rusting Creating gas bubbles Creating a new chemical product Reactivity with water pH
