1. MATTER: PROPERTIES
AND CHANGES
5.P.2.2 Compare the weight of an object to the sum of the
weight of its parts before and after an interaction.
5.P.2.3 Summarize properties of original materials, and the new
material(s) formed, to demonstrate that a change has
occurred.

4. MATTER IS EVERYWHERE AND
EVERYTHING!
MATTER IS ANTHING THAT TAKES UP
SPACE!
MATTER IS MADE UP OF TINY PARTICLES
CALLED ATOMS!
6. Matter can be found in three different
types. These three types are considered
the three STATES of MATTER.
1.Solids
2.Liquids
3.Gasses
7. A SOLID is matter that has a defined shape and
will not lose its shape.
FIXED VOLUME AND FIXED SHAPE
Examples of solids:
1.Chair
2.Table
3.Golf Ball
4.Hockey Puck
5.Glass Jar
8. A LIQUID is matter that will take the shape of any
container it is placed in put has a fixed volume.
Examples of LIQUIDS:
1.Water
2.Soda
3.Milk
4.Juice
5.Tomato Sauce
9. A GAS is matter that does NOT have a fixed shape
or volume, but will completely take up all the
space in a container.
MOST GASSES ARE INVISIBLE!!!!
Examples of GASSES:
1.Oxygen
2.Helium
3.Carbon Dioxide
4.Nitrogen
5.Carbon Monoxide
11. JOURNAL RESPONSE
In three or more sentences explain what matter is and
give at least two examples of each state of matter.
(Include: The three states of matter and their
descriptions)
12. CLEAR LEARNING GOAL
DAY 2
AS A STUDENT I WILL BE ABLE TO IDENTIFY AND CLASSIFY
MATTER BASED ON ITS PROPERTIES
14. Matter can be found in three different
types. These three types are considered
the three STATES of MATTER.
1.Solids
2.Liquids
3.Gasses
15. Although matter can be classified into
three different states (types) it can also be
described using its properties.
PROPERTIES: Characteristics, features,
qualities, or traits.

18. JOURNAL RESPONSE
Now that you have finished your first lab; Choose three
objects in the room that were not included in your lab.
Classify them based on their state (solid, liquid, gas) and
their properties (smell, looks, feels, etc.)
19. CLEAR LEARNING GOAL
DAY 3
AS A STUDENT I WILL BE ABLE TO IDENTIFY AND
DETERMINE WHETER A CHANGE IN MATTER IS PHYSICAL
OR CHEMICAL.
20. NOW THAT WE KNOW WHAT MATTER IS AND
HOW TO DESCRIBE MATTER USING IT’S
STATE AND PROPERTIES; WE NEED TO SEE
HOW MATTER CAN CHANGE
21. Matter can go through two different types
of changes.
Types of Changes:
1.Physical
2.Chemical
22. A physical change in matter is when matter
changes its property but not it’s chemical
nature.
23. Physical changes:
Although some properties (like shape,
phase, etc.) of the material change, the
material itself is the same before and after
the change.
The change can be “undone.”
25. PHYSICAL CHANGES
THE MATTER IS THE SAME. The particles of the
substance are rearranged
THE ORIGINAL MATTER CAN
BE RECOVERED
26. EXAMPLES:
Aluminum foil is cut in half
Clay is molded into a new shape
Butter melts on warm toast
Water evaporates from the surface of the ocean
Juice freezes
Rubbing alcohol evaporates on your hand
27. PHYSICAL CHANGES LAB
Lab: Physical Changes
Purpose: Create a physical change
Materials
1) Metal Spoon
2) Tealight
3) Match
4) Butter
5) Bread
PROCEDURE
1. Place your tealight on a hard surface – have your teacher light the
candle
2 Add a small amount of butter to your spoon
3. Complete row 1 of chart below
4. Place your spoon 2-3 inches above the flame
5. Observe what happens to the butter
6. Add butter to your piece of bread and taste
7. Complete chart below
OBJECT: STATE: PROPERTIES: OBSERVATIONS:
BUTTER

28. JOURNAL RESPONSE
In three or more sentences describe what a physical
change is, how you know a physical change occurred in the
lab, and three examples of physical changes.
29. CLEAR LEARNING GOAL
DAY 4
AS A STUDENT I WILL BE ABLE TO IDENTIFY AND
DETERMINE WHETER A CHANGE IN MATTER IS PHYSICAL
OR CHEMICAL.
30. A chemical change in matter is when
matter becomes something completely
new. New matter is formed.
31. Chemical change:
The substances present at the beginning of
the change are not present at the end; new
substances are formed. The change cannot
be “undone."
32. CHEMICAL CHANGES
THE MATTER IS DIFFERENT. THE PARTICALES OF THE
SUBSTANCES ARE BROKEN
APART
THE OLD MATTER IS NO
LONGER PRESNT
ATOMS ARE REARRANGED
INTO NEW PARTICLES
THE ORIGINAL MATTER
CANNOT BE REMOVED FROM
THE NEW MATTER
A NEW SUBSTANCE IS
FORMED
33. EXAMPLES:
Milk goes sour
Jewelry becomes tarnished
Bread becomes toast
Rust forms on a nail
Gasoline is ignited
Hydrogen peroxide bubbles in a cut
A match is lit
Your body digests food
Fruit decomposes and rots
34. CHEMICAL CHANGES LAB
Lab: Chemical Changes
Purpose: Make a ball and observe the changes in its properties.
Background information: Balls have been toys practically forever, but the bouncing
ball is a more recent innovation. Bouncing balls were originally made of natural rubber,
though now bouncing balls can be made of plastics and other polymers. You can use
chemistry to make your own bouncing ball.
1) corn starch
2) water
3) plastic cup
4) spoon
5) white glue
PROCEDURE BALL # 1
1. Label your first cup “Borax”
2 Add 2 tablespoons of warm water into the plastic cup labeled “Borax.”
3. Add ½ teaspoon of borax powder in cup labeled “borax”
Gently stir until powder is dissolved in the water
4. Label a second cup “mix”
5. Pour 1 tablespoon of glue into the cup (Add food coloring if you wish)
6. Add ½ teaspoon borax into the “mix” cup DO NOT STIR
7. Add 1 tablespoon of cornstarch into the “mix cup” DO NOT STIR
YET
8. Wait 10-15 Seconds then mix it
9. Mix “borax cup” and “mix cup” together and mix with wooden craft
stick until you can’t mix it anymore
10. Take the mixture out of your cup and place it in your hands.
IT WILL BE MESSY AND STICKY
11. Knead the mix to form a ball. (The more you knead, the less sticky it
will become.)
12. Using a meter stick. Drop your ball from the 50 cm mark and record
how high it bounces. Record your data in the table below.
13. Record your two partners data into your table as well. Observe the
properties of your two partners bouncy balls.
