1. Scientists use the Particle Theory of Matter to describe temperature.
Grade 7 Science Unit 2
Scientists use the Particle Theory of Matter to describe temperature.
Chapter 5

2. Discussion What are objects (or matter) made up of?
What makes something an object (matter) in real-life?

3. Matter Matter: Is anything that has mass and takes up space.
Mass is measured in kilograms
(it’s related to how heavy something is)
Taking up space means volume –
Big (an elephant) or small (a bacteria)

4. So what makes up matter?
If we had the best microscopes in the world and we looked at matter – what is it made up of?

5. So what makes up matter?
If we had the best microscopes in the world and we looked at matter – what is it made up of?
Particles! – also called atoms (sadly we can’t see them with our microscopes!)

6. The Particle Theory of Matter!
5 points about this theory:
All matter is made up of tiny particles.

7. Particle Theory of Matter
These particles are always moving –they have energy. The more energy they have, the faster they move.

8. Particle Theory of Matter
There is space between all particles.
Mini Activity: Pg. 137, 5-1A

9. Particle Theory of Matter
There are attractive forces between the particles.

10. Particle Theory of Matter
The particles of one substance are the same but different from another substance.

11. Particle Theory of Matter
Iteractive to relate to the PTM:

12. Particles have Energy PTM #2 says all particles have energy
This is important for Temperature!
If particles have more energy will they be hotter or colder?

13. Particles have Energy PTM #2 says all particles have energy
This is important for Temperature!
If particles have more energy will they be hotter or colder?
Hotter!

14. Particles have Energy
kinetic energy: The energy that particles have due to motion (moving)
Measured in Joules or J
Moving faster means they have more energy!
Does this relate to temperature?

15. Temperature
Temperature: The average energy of the particles of a substance.

16. Question 1:
“All particles in a glass of room temperature water are moving at the same speed.”
Explain whether this statement is true or false.

17. Question 2:
“Will the particles of air closest to a sunny window have the same amount of kinetic energy as those near the floor?”
Explain

18. Kenetic Energy Do all the particles have the same energy?
The kinetic energy is the average of all the particles energy

19. Kenetic Energy Do all the particles have the same energy?
The kinetic energy is the average of all the particles energy
12.9J

20. What is the kinetic energy of the matter in the following test tubes?

21. What is the kinetic energy of the matter in the following test tubes?
10J
15.8J

23. Matter can be in different States
Matter can change depending on how much energy it has
What will happen to ice water if I add energy to it?
What will happen to liquid water if I add energy to it?

24. 3 States of matter

25. Observe the differences between the 3 states of Matter

26. Discussion
How are these three states different from one another?

27. Expands to fit the container
Solid
Liquid
Gas
Volume
Does Not Change
Expands to fit the container
Shape
Does not take the shape of the container
Takes the Shape of the container
*flat top
Particle arrangement
Closely packed together
Close together, but can slide past each other
Large spaces between them
Particle movement
Vibrate in the same position
Slide past one another
Moves freely in all directions
Drawing

28. Interactive and Quiz:

29. *Important note
When energy is added or removed the state of matter can change!

30. Adding Heat When heat is added what happens:
Do the particles change into new ones?
Do the particles change speed?
Do the particles have different amount of space between them?

31. Adding Heat When heat is added what happens:
Do the particles change into new ones?
No!
Do the particles change speed?
Yes they move faster!
Do the particles have different amount of space between them?
Yes - more, especially if it becomes a gas

32. When heat is added the volumne increases!
Expansion
Increasing the volume of a substance
Contraction
Decreasing the volume of a substance

33. Expansion When the particles are heated, they: gain energy,
move faster,
spread out and
take up more space thereby increasing their volume.

34. Contraction When the particles are cooled: they lose energy,
move slower,
move closer together and
take up less space thereby decreasing their volume.

35. Explaining why
Why does air pressure in tires increases during a car trip?
Why do footballs or soccer balls deflate when they are taken outside on a cold day?

38. Changing States
Adding or removing heat changes the state of matter by changing the movement of the particles
* the type of particles does NOT change, just there motion

39. Changes of State

41. Changing State interactive

42. We can graph the changes of state by observing temperature
Core Lab activity
Activity 5-3C “The Plateau Problem” Page 166 (7)

43. * When matter is changing state all the energy is used up, so temperature does NOT increase!
