    Study Notes

    States of Matter

    • Matter exists in three states: solid, liquid, and gas.
    • Solids have a definite shape and definite volume.
    • Liquids have a definite volume but not a definite shape
    • Gases have no definite volume or shape.
    • In a solid, particles are held together by strong attractive forces, they are arranged in a rigid manner, can only move by vibrating slowly in fixed positions.
    • Liquids contain particles that move slowly in random directions.
    • Gases contain particles that are far apart, move at high speeds, and have little attraction to each other.

    Properties of Matter

    • Physical properties are characteristics that can be observed or measured without changing the identity of the substance.
    • Chemical properties describe the ability of a substance to interact with other substances and change into a new substance.
    • Examples of physical properties include: color, shape, smell, density, melting point, boiling point, and luster.
    • Examples of chemical properties include: flammability, reactivity, and oxidation.

    Physical and Chemical Changes

    • Physical changes occur when matter undergoes a physical change of state, but its composition remains constant. Examples include: melting, freezing, boiling, and evaporation.
    • Chemical changes take place when the original substance is converted into a new substance with different physical and chemical properties. Examples include: burning, rusting, and cooking.
