Matter

  • Remember, matter is anything that takes up space and has mass

  • All matter is made of tiny particles called atoms

4

Multiple Choice

What is matter made up of?

1

Mass

2

Space

3

Atoms

5

Atoms

  • Atoms are composed of even smaller particles

  • Neutrons (inside the nucleus)

  • Electrons (around the edge)

  • Protons (inside the nucleus)

9

Molecules

  • Any time two or more atoms come together, they form a molecule

10

Elements

  • An element is a pure substance that is only made of one kind of atom

11

Multiple Select

Which is an element?

1

Hydrogen

4

Magnesium Sulfide

12

Compounds

  • When molecules include different elements, they are called a compound.

  • Ex. Carbon Monoxide (CO)

13

Signs of a Chemical Reaction or Change

  • Light created or heat created

  • Change in smell

  • Change in color

  • Change in temperature

  • Sound produced

  • Gas created

  • New substance formed

15

Signs of a Physical Change

  • Change in size or shape. Change in state of matter. Reversible. No new substance formed!

20

Law of Conservation of Matter

  • Matter is not created or destroyed in any chemical or physical change. 


  • The same amount of matter exists before and after the change occurs 

21

Multiple Choice

When a log is burned, and turned into ashes is matter created or destroyed?

1

Created

2

Destroyed

3

Neither created or destroyed

22

Multiple Choice

When water is boiled and turned into steam via evaporation matter created or destroyed?

1

Created

2

Destroyed

3

Neither created or destroyed

23

Temperature Vs. Thermal Energy

  • Temperature: the measure of how fast, on average, the particles in something are moving (size doesn't matter, heat does)

  • Thermal Energy: a measure of the total kinetic and potential energy of all the particles in a substance (the bigger something is, the more thermal energy)

24

Multiple Choice

Which has the highest thermal energy?

1

piece of paper

2

cup of hot coffee

3

large ice coffee

4

huge iceberg

25

Multiple Choice

Which has the highest temperature?

1

piece of paper

2

cup of hot coffee

3

large ice coffee

4

huge iceberg

26

Potential Vs. Kinetic Energy

  • Potential Energy: stored energy an object has because of its position or state

  • Kinetic Energy: the energy of motion

27

Multiple Choice

A moving bike. Potential or kinetic?

1

Potential

2

Kinetic

28

Multiple Choice

A rock on top of a hill. Potential or kinetic?

1

30

Heat Transfer

  • Conduction: transferring through direction contact (like touching something)

  • Convection: transferring through air or water

  • Radiation: transferring through an open space

Three States of Matter

  • Solid: particles are tightly together, holds it shape, melts (turns into a liquid) when heated

  • Liquid: particles are not as tight together, forms the shape of the container it is put into, turns into a gas when heated

  • Gas: particles are very free flowing, fills the container it is put into
