BELL WORK Use the Particle Theory to briefly explain the following: 1. Solids have a hard rigid shape and a definite volume. 2. A solid substance expands when heated. 3. A puddle of water disappears on a hot summer day. 4. Gases take the shape and size of their container. 5. A balloon filled with helium gas shrinks when taken outside on a cold winter day. 6. Predict what will happen to the balloon (in #5) if it is brought back inside a warm building.

PHYSICAL PROPERTIES OF MATTER …
3
LEARNING GOALS I will be able to describe physical and chemical properties of matter. I will be able to perform density calculations.
4
WHAT ARE PHYSICAL PROPERTIES? Used to describe a substance (doesn’t change what it is) Can be quantitative (with numbers) or qualitative (no numbers) Physical change – usually a change of state; can be reversed (no change to the particles)
5
QUALITATIVE PP Luster – shiny/dull Optical clarity – ability to allow light through Brittleness – breakability or flexibility Viscosity – ability or a substance to flow Hardness – ability to scratch Malleability – ability to be hammered Ductility – ability to be pulled into a wire Electrical conductivity – ability to conduct electricity
6
QUANTITATIVE: FREEZING, MELTING, BOILING POINTS Involved changes of state (i.e. evaporation, condensation) Can be looked up in tables (they are constants)
7
QUANTITATIVE PP - DENSITY Measure of how much mass is contained within a given volume Units are usually g/mL (for liquids) or g/cm3 (for solids) Equation triangle to calculate:
8
EXAMPLE 1 Calculate the density of a substance that has a mass of 4.5g and a volume of 13.5mL.
9
EXAMPLE 2 Given the density of aluminum is 2.70 g/cm3, what volume would 200g have?
10
EXAMPLE 3 The density of ethanol is 0.789 g/mL. What is the mass of a sample with a volume of 125 mL?
11
CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Properties that describe how a substance reacts in the presence of another. A description of a substance that is determined when the composition of the substance is changed.
12
Chemical property examples include: Ability to react with water. Ability to react with acid. Ability to react with air. Ability to burn (combustibility).
13
LEARNING GOAL REVISIT I will be able to describe physical properties and chemical properties of matter. I will be able to perform density calculations.
14
TO DO … P 182 #2,4,5 P 198 #1 Density Worksheet Don’t forget that to calculate the volume of a cube, the formula is …
