Is the study of the composition,structure,properties, & reactions of matter
|
|
MATTER
|
Anything that has mass & occupies space
|
|
CHEMICAL
|
any material used in or produced by a chemical process
|
|
SUBSTANCE
|
a chemical that consists of 1 type of matter & always has the same composition & properties wherever it is found
|
|
STATES OF MATTER
|
liquid, solid, & gas
|
|
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
|
can be observed or measured without affecting the identity of the substance
|
|
describe what are
PHYSICAL PROPERTIES |
color, odor, melting, boiling, or freezing point, state
(solid,liquid or gas) luster, conduction of electric or heat |
|
SOLID
|
has definate shape & volume
|
|
LIQUIDS
|
has definate volume, but not definate shape it takes the shape of the container it is in
|
|
GAS
|
does not have definate shape or volume
|
|
PHYSICAL CHANGE
|
when matter undergoes change of state its shape or color may change but its identity will remain the same
|
|

change of state(solid,liquid or gas)
appearance, shape, or size |
|
CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
|
the ability of a substance to change into something new through chemical interaction
|
|
CHEMICAL INTERACTIONS
|

|
|
SCIENTIFIC METHOD
|
OBSERVATION, HYPOTHESIS, EXPERIMENT, THEORY
|
|
OSERVATION
|
1st step in scientific method , you obtain data through observation orask the question why?
|
|
HYPOTHESIS
|
2nd step in scientific method.
you form a hypothesis to answer the question why` |
|
Experiment
|
3rd step do testing to see if your hypothesis is correct. if not you form a new hypothesis and continue testing.
|
|
THEORY
|
last step in scientific method. after testing results must be testable with repeatable results so the more testing performed to confirm or disprove a theory the better.
