ALL ABOUT MATTER!!!!!!

This is all about solid,liquid,and gas

WHAT IS MATTER?

Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space.

solid Solid is anything that takes up space and

has mass. Solids have a shape of their own. Solids can be described by their physical

properties. Examples of a solid is a penny, ice, chair,

apple.

LIQUID

Liquids take up space and have mass Liquids take the shape of their container. Liquids do not have a shape of their own. Liquids can be measured ( mass and volume) The particles of liquid is mostly to touch but not like solid. Example of liquid glue, milkshake, pink lemonade.

GAS A gas takes up space and has mass. A gas takes the whole shape of its

container. A gas is the only kind of matter that

always fills all the space inside a container.

The atoms don’t touch together like solid does.

Example of boiling pot, , bubbles, fire.

Physical Changes

Matter’s appearance may change, however it retains its own properties

Matter can be combined to form: mixtures and solutions

Examples of physical change

Color Texture Odor Size Volume Mass Solid, Liquid, or Gas Magnetic Floats or sinks Boiling point Melting point

Chemical change

Chemical change is a substance that combines with another to form a new substance, called synthesis or, alternatively, decomposes into two or more different substances.

Examples of chemical change

Rusting Burning Digesting food Electrolysis of waterMilk souring
