Unit 2:What is Matter? All Matter has 2 Types of Properties of Matter Physical Properties and Chemical Properties
2
1. Physical properties – can be observed without changing into another substance. State of matter (solid, liquid, gas), texture, color, flexibility, melting and boiling points 2. Chemical properties – describes the ability to change into different substance. They cannot be observed without changing a substance into a new material Able to catch fire (Flammability), ability to react (rusting, tarnishing), non- reactivity (water does not react with air)

4
Measuring Matter Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space (volume) We can measure mass We can measure volume If it can be measured then it is a Physical Property.
5
Measuring Volume Volume- measured in liter or L, mL, and kL or cubic cm (cm³)and cubic m (m³) Volume = L x W x H
6
Measuring Irregular Shaped Objects Displacement – submerge object in water in graduated cylinder. Measure the difference water rises. 1ml of water = 1cm³
7
Scientist Prefer Mass Instead of Weight Mass – measured in grams or g, mg, and kg Use a balance to measure mass Mass does not change even when force of gravity changes on mass Weight changes with force of gravity; changes with location throughout the universe Use a scale to measure weight
8
Density Density = mass (g) / volume (cm 3 ) If we can measure mass and volume then density is a Physical Property Relative density states that the least dense items will be on top and most dense items on the bottom

Entrance Quiz Unit 2 1. Which of the following is NOT a unit of measure for volume? a. cm³ b. ml c. g d. liter 2. What are the 2 properties all matter have? a. mass and weight b. mass and volume c. volume and density d. physical and chemic al
10
Entrance Quiz Unit 2 3. This is the amount of matter in an object. a. mass b. density c. matter d. Volume 4. Density is the: a. Amount of space an object occupies b. Force of gravity on an object c. Mass in a given volume d. Amount of mass and space object occupies
