Matter (general)
| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Can be described as being, flowery, putrid, etc | Odour |
| How well it lets light shine through | Clarity |
| Its ability to reflect light | Lustre |
| The condition of being either a solid, liquid, or gas | Physical state |
| It’s shape (either regular: crystalline or irregular: amorphous) | Form |
| The feel of a substance | Texture |
| The resistance of a liquid to flow | Viscosity |
| The resistance to being scratched. Rated on 1-10 scale, 10 is very hard | Hardness |
| The ability to shatter easily | Brittleness |
| The ability to be hammered into a flat sheet | Malleability |
| The ability to be stretched out into a long thin wire | Ductility |
| Can be described as sweet, salty, etc | Taste |
| The type of light absorbed | Colour |
| Physical property | Describe characteristics of matter using the senses. Ex. apple is opaque (sensed through sight) |
| Chemical property | Describe how matter reacts or behaves. Ex. baking soda is reactive to acid |
| Matter vs mass vs volume | Matter: anything that has mass and volume Mass: amount of matter in an object (measure mass using electronic balance) Volume: amount of space that matter takes up (measure volume of a substance with graduated cylinder) |
| PASS theory | All PARTICLES are made up of matter. Particles have ATTRACTIVE forces Particles are always moving (SPEED) Particles have SPACES between them |
| Classifying matter: define and examples | Matter, pure substances, mixtures, elements: Na, O2 compounds: H2O solutions: Kool Aid, salt water mechanical mixtures: trail mix, veggie soup |
| Non-Newtonian fluid | A fluid whose viscosity changes when force/pressure is applied. |
| Physical change vs chemical change | Physical change: chemical makeup is same, but form/state/physical appearance altered ex. ripped paper. Chemical change: chemical makeup is altered and a new substance formed. Evidence is colour/temp change, heat/light/gas/odour production. Ex. bake cake |
| Names for changes of state: (6) | Liquid and solid: freeze/melt Liquid and gas: evaporation/condensation Gas to solid: deposition Solid to gas: sublimation |
| If a matter is heated, a solid will turn into ___ Speed of particles will ___ Space between particles will ___ Attractive forces between particles ___ | Liquid, increase, increase, decrease |
