What do a band-aid, golf ball, water bottle, and a granola bar have in common? They are all different types of matter! 4/24/2017 Free Template from

3 NOT EVERYTHING IS MATTER!
Things that do not have mass and do not take up their separate space are not considered matter. EXAMPLES of non-matter objects… Light, electricity, magnetism, sound, and heat 4/24/2017 Free Template from

What is matter? Matter is everything that takes up space (volume) and has mass (the amount of matter something has). Examples of matter… 4/24/2017 Free Template from

Properties of Matter All types of matter have certain Physical Properties. A property is any characteristic or quality that something has. Many of the properties of the matter can be measured. 4/24/2017 Free Template from

Properties of Matter Size Mass Volume Temperature States (Solid, Liquid, and Gas) Magnetism Whether the object Sinks or Floats Scientists are able to use these measurable physical properties to describe and classify different kinds of matter. 4/24/2017 Free Template from

Size Every piece of matter has it’s own size –how large or small it is. Size can be measured in length, width, and depth. Or it can be measured in mass or volume. Volume is how much space the object takes up. Relative size- is how large one piece of matter compares to another. When you compare a bowling ball and baseball, you know the bowling ball has more volume and mass than a baseball. Therefore, it’s relative size is greater. 4/24/2017 Free Template from

Mass and Weight Mass is the amount of matter an object has. Scientists usually measure mass in Grams (g.) and Kilograms (kg.) Scientists use a pan balance or triple beam balance to measure mass Weight is the force of attraction created by gravity. Our weight would change if we went to the moon or another planet. 4/24/2017 Free Template from

Volume Volume is how much space a piece of matter takes up. For example: how much shampoo is in a bottle. Liquid Volume is measured in milliliters (mL) or liters (L). A liter is about the same size of a quart. A milliliter is about the size of a dropper. 4/24/2017 Free Template from

Temperature Temperature is how hot or cold something is. Scientist measure temperature in Celsius and Fahrenheit. Water freezes at 0°C and 32°F Water boils at 100°C and 212°F 4/24/2017 Free Template from

States of Matter Each type of matter can exist in 3 states or form- as a solid, liquid, or gas. A gas has no definite shape. It’s particles move very fast and spread out in all directions. A solid has a definite shape and it’s particles are very close together. An ice cube and a rock are examples of solids A liquid will take the shape of whatever container it is in. It’s particles move around each other. 4/24/2017 Free Template from

Magnetism Some pieces of matter are magnetic. A magnet is a piece of metal that attracts some metals such as iron, nickel, and steel. A magnet pulls objects made out of these metals towards it. Not all metals are magnetic. Tin, aluminum, copper, gold, and silver are some examples of non-magnetic metals. 4/24/2017 Free Template from

Sink or Float Another property of matter is whether it will sink or float in water. This is known as buoyancy. Density is the amount of matter in a certain volume of a substance. Objects less dense than water float. Objects more dense than water sink. (See Science book pages ) 4/24/2017 Free Template from

Let's make a FOLDABLE Size- How large or small an object is. Mass-How much matter is in an object (grams (g) and kilograms (kg)) Volume- The amount of space an object takes up. Temperature- How hot or cold something is (Celcius or Fahrenheit) State of Matter- Solid, Liquid, or Gas. Magnetism- Is it attracted to a magnet? Buoyancy- Does the object sink or float? Draw examples for each property of matter 4/24/2017 Free Template from
