Study Notes
Properties of Matter
- Matter has mass and occupies space.
- Composed of small, constantly moving particles called atoms.
- Atoms are the basic units of matter; molecules form when atoms chemically bond.
Phases of Matter
-
Solid:
- Definite shape and volume.
- Particles closely arranged, can only vibrate.
-
Liquid:
- Definite volume, takes the shape of its container.
- Nonuniform arrangement of particles with spaces between.
-
Gas:
- No definite shape or volume.
- Particles are spaced farther apart compared to their sizes.
Matter Classification
-
Examples of Matter:
- Mercury (Element) - Liquid
- Rubbing Alcohol (Mixture) - Liquid
- Aspirin (Compound) - Solid
- Air (Mixture) - Gas
- Cologne (Mixture) - Liquid
- Brass (Mixture) - Solid
Changes in Matter
-
Physical Change:
- Initial composition remains unchanged.
- Example: Freezing water into ice, melting ice cream.
-
Chemical Change:
- Composition altered, forming new substances.
- Example: Frying meat, burning wood.
Experiment Overview
- Materials needed: Baking soda, vinegar, bottle, funnel, balloon, tablespoon.
- Procedure involves mixing baking soda with vinegar using a balloon to capture gas released during the reaction.
Observations and Conclusions
- Observe changes in balloon size as gas is produced from the reaction.
- Identify signs of chemical change during the experiment.
- Importance of responsible resource use and minimizing waste in scientific work.
Learning Objectives
- Explain properties of solid, liquid, and gas.
- Demonstrate a simple experiment showing a change of state.
- Promote responsible use of resources and materials in experiments.
