(MATTER) P:2---- Flashcards
Physical Properties
Any characteristic that can be observed using your 5 senses without changing the substance
Chemical Properties
Any characteristic that describes how matter interacts with another substance
Biological Properties
The characteristic of having all 9 features of living things
Physical Change
Change to the physical properties of matter, substance is not changed into a new substance
Chemical Change
Change to the chemical properties of matter, substance is changed into a new substance with new properties, cannot change back
Law of Conservation of Matter/Mass
Matter cannot be created nor destroyed,
The number of atoms/mass of the reactants equals the number of atoms/mass of the products.
Phase/state of matter
-solid, liquid, and gas
-Changed by changing temperature or pressure
Solid
-Definite shape & definite volume
-Particles packed together and vibrate but have fixed positions
-Lower energy
Liquid
-No definite shape but has definite volume
-Particles spread apart
-Medium energy
Gas
-No definite shape & no definite volume
-Particles spread far apart
-High energy
Melting
-matter changing from solid to liquid
-⬆ energy, ⬆ particle movement
-melting point= temperature substance melts at
Vaporization/Evaporation
-matter changing from liquid to gas
-⬆ energy, ⬆ particle movement
-Boiling point= temperature substance turns to gas at
Condensation
-matter changing from gas to liquid
-⬇ energy, ⬇ particle movement
Sublimation
-matter changing from solid to gas
-⬆ energy, ⬆ particle movement
Deposition
-matter changing from gas to solid
-⬇ energy, ⬇ particle movement
