Study Notes
- Matter is anything that has mass, volume and is made of atoms
- Solid has a definite shape and volume
- Liquid has a definite volume, but not a definite shape
- Gas has a state of matter that does not have a definite shape or volume
- Mass is the measurement of the amount of matter in an object
- Volume is the amount of space an object occupies
- Density is a characteristic of a substance that can be observed without changing the substance into anything new
- Physical Property is a characteristic that can be observed about an object without changing the object
- Examples:
- Smashing, ripping, crumpling, crushing and breaking stuff
- Chemical Property is a characteristic that is observed when a substance interacts or reacts with another substance
- Examples:
- Burring, boiling, digesting, baking and toasting
