Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space You and everything around you are made up of matter Examples of matter are air, plastic, metal, wood, glass, paper, and cloth What is Matter?

Slide 4

What isnt Matter? Does light or heat have mass or take up space? Light and heat do not take up space, and they have no mass Therefore, they are not forms of matter Emotions, thoughts, and ideas are not matter either

Slide 5

Properties of Matter Matter can have many different properties, or characteristics Materials can be hard or soft, rough or smooth, hot or cold, liquid, solid, or gas Chemistry is the study of the properties of matter and how matter changes

Slide 6

What is Substance? The properties of matter depends on its makeup Some types of matter are substances and some are not A substance is a single kind of matter that is pure it always has a specific composition and a specific set of properties Example is salt no matter where it comes from seawater or a salt mine it always has the same composition and properties

Slide 7

Two types of Properties Every form of matter has 2 kinds of properties physical and chemical For example: A physical property of oxygen (O2) is that it is a gas at room temperature A chemical property of oxygen (O2) is that it reacts with iron to form rust

Slide 8

Physical Properties of Matter The physical properties of matter help to identify and classify matter in its different forms A physical property is a characteristic of a pure substance that can be observed without changing it into another substance For example: A physical property of water is that it freezes at a temperature of O 0 C When liquid water freezes it changes to solid ice, but it is still water

Slide 9

Liquid and Frozen Water

Slide 10

Other Physical Properties of Matter Hardness, texture, and color are some other physical properties of matter States of matter such as, solid, liquid, gas, or plasma is another physical property Whether or not a substance dissolves in water is also a physical property. For example, sugar will dissolve in water, but iron will not

Slide 11

Classifying Matter using Physical Properties Physical properties can be used to identify, separate, and classify substances For example, two properties of metals are luster and the ability to conduct heat and electricity Some, metals, such has iron, are magnetized they can be attracted to a magnet

Slide 12

Classifying Matter using Physical Properties Metals are also malleable which means they are flexible and can be hammered, pressed, or rolled into thin sheets without breaking Many metals are ductile, which means they can be drawn into wires. Copper is an example of a metal that can be made into wires Other materials such as glass, brick, and concrete will break if you try to bend them or press them thinner

Slide 13

Chemical Properties of Matter Unlike physical properties of matter, some properties cant be observed just by looking at or touching a substance A chemical property is a characteristic of a pure substance that describes its ability to change into different substances To observe the chemical properties of a substance, you must try to change it to another substance

Slide 14

Classifying Matter Using Chemical Properties Like physical properties, chemical properties can be used to classify substances For example, a chemical property of methane (natural gas) is that it can catch fire and burn in the air When it burns, it combines with oxygen in the air and forms new substances, like water and carbon dioxide Burning or flammability is a chemical property of methane, as well as, the substances in wood or gasoline

Slide 15

Chemical Property Burning Wood Wood fuels a fire, producing heat, gases, and ash

Slide 16

Other Chemical Properties One chemical property of iron is that it will combine slowly with oxygen in the air to from a different substance rust Silver will react with sulfur in the air to form tarnish In contrast a chemical property of gold is that it does not react easily with oxygen or sulfur
