Matter
Everything that has mass and
volume
All solids, liquids, and gases.

3 States of Matter
Solid
Liquid
Gas

Solid
Volume & shape stays the same
Atoms in solids are tightly packed &
vibrate in place

There are 2 types of solids

Crystalline atoms are arranged in a
regular pattern to make crystals.
Ex: Sugar, Salt, Snow

 Amorphous atoms are not arranged

in a pattern.

Liquid
Volume stays the same
Shape changes to fit its
container
Atoms in liquids are more
loosely packed & move
around each other

Liquids are
described by
viscosity
High viscosity
Ex: Honey Flows slowly

Low viscosity
Ex: Water Flows quickly

Gas
Can change shape & volume
Atoms in gases are very far apart
and move around very quickly

Adding energy (such as heat)

causes a change in state.
This is a PHYSICAL change.

There are 2 types of

vaporization
Evaporation & Boiling

Evaporation
Molecules on the
surface of a liquid
turn to gas.

Boiling
Molecules
throughout a
liquid turn to gas.
Caused by
increased heat

Sublimation
Changes directly from a solid to a
gas without going through the liquid
phase.

Property of Matter
A characteristic or a description

 Properties for a given substance DO

NOT CHANGE!!!

It does not matter how large or small

the sample is. If it is the same
material, the properties will be the
SAME!

 Because these properties are

constant, you can use these
properties to compare, classify, and
identify matter.

There are 2 types of properties:

Physical Properties & Chemical Properties

Physical Properties
Characteristics of a substance that can
be observed without changing it into
another substance.

Examples:
Density how heavy something is in
relationship to its size.

Thermal Conductivity
The ability for heat to pass through the
object

High Thermal Conductivity Metal, Glass

Low Thermal Conductivity Wood, Cloth
(AKA Thermal Insulators)

Electrical Conductivity
The ability for electricity to pass through
the object

High Electrical Conductivity - Metal

Low Electrical Conductivity Plastic,
Wood
(AKA Electrical Insulators)

Solubility
The ability to dissolve in water

Magnetism
The ability to be
attracted to a
magnet

Melting Point
The temperature at which a solid
turns to a liquid.

This is the same as its freezing point,

where liquid turns to solid.

Boiling Point
The
temperature at
which a liquid
turns to a gas
This is the
same as its
condensation
point, where
gas turns to
liquid.

Other Physical Properties

Shininess
Hardness
Texture
Flexibility
Color

There are 2 types of changes:

Physical Changes & Chemical Changes

Physical Change
A change that alters the form or
appearance of a material, but does
NOT make the material into another
substance.

Examples:
Change of state Freezing, Melting, Boiling

Breaking, Cutting, Tearing

Folding, Bending,
Crushing

Dissolving

It is probably a physical
change if
It is similar to the
original material
It is reversible, or you
can un-do it

Chemical Properties
A characteristic of a substance that
describes its ability to change into
different substances.

Examples:
Flammability the ability to burn
fuel + oxygen = water and carbon
dioxide

Rusting
Metal + Oxygen + Water = Rust

Corrosion/Tarnish
Metal + Air = Tarnish
An old green penny
Silver that turns blackish

Chemical Change
AKA Chemical Reaction
A change in which one or more
substances combine or break apart to
form NEW substances.

Examples:
Combustion Fire/burning
fuel + oxygen = water and carbon
dioxide

Oxidation - Combining with

Oxygen
Apple + Oxygen = Brown
Apple
Metal + Oxygen + Water =
Rust

Tarnish
Metal + Air = Tarnish
An old green penny
Silver that turns blackish

Electrolysis Adding
Electricity
Water + Electricity = Hydrogen &
Oxygen

It is probably a chemical
change if

It
It
It
It

produces fire/smoke/bubbles
changes color
can NOT be un-done
is endothermic or exothermic

Endothermic Vs.
Exothermic
Absorbs heat
energy from
surroundings
Feels cold
Ex: Baking Soda &
Vinegar

Gives off heat to

the surroundings
Feels hot
Ex: A fire

 Temperature can influence chemical

changes by speeding it up (heat) or
slowing it down (cold).

The Law of Conservation of

Mass
AKA The Law of Conservation of
Matter
The total amount of matter is neither
created nor destroyed in any physical
or chemical change.

 This means that if you found the

mass of a material before and after a
reaction, they would be equal.

Burning Methane
