2 Main Idea Physical and chemical properties are characteristics to describe, identify, and classify matter Matter is anything that has mass and volume

4 Using Your Senses Every object or material you can think of is a form of matter Every sample of matter has properties that describe it Properties can also be used to help identify pure substances; elements and compounds

5 PHYSICAL PROPERTIES Physical Properties Color, Shape, Luster, Texture Mass, Volume, Density State Of Matter, Solubility, Conductivity Boiling Point, Melting Point Malleability, Ductility

6 Chemical Property The ability or tendency of a material to change its chemical makeup Materials are made up of atoms and molecules. When the arrangement of the atoms and molecules change, a new material is formed The new material has a different identity and different properties

7 MASS Mass is the measure of the amount of matter in an object or a material It can be measured in grams or kilograms A large object contains more matter than a smaller object, so the larger object has greater mass

8 VOLUME Volume is the amount of space a sample of matter takes up The volume of a solid can be measured in cubic centimeters Liquid volumes are measured in liters or milliliters

9 DENSITY The density of a material is its mass per unit volume To find the density of a sample, measure its mass and its volume and divide All samples of a pure substance kept under the same conditions have the same density

10 STATES OF MATTER Solids are rigid and have a definite shape and volume. Liquids take the shape of their container, but keep the same volume. Gases have no definite shape or volume. Another physical property is state of matter. The three familiar states are solid, liquid, and gas.

11 MELTING POINT When enough energy is added to a solid, it melts to form a liquid. The temperatures at which a solid substance changes to a liquid is called its melting point The chemical element with the highest melting point is Tungsten at 4488 Kelvin (4215 °C, 7619 °F) making it excellent as filaments in light bulbs

12 BOILING POINT When enough energy is added to a liquid, it changes into a gas. The temperature at which this happens is called the boiling point The boiling point of a liquid varies depending upon the environmental pressure The higher the pressure, the higher the boiling point

13 SOLUBILITY The measure of how much of one substance can dissolve in another is called solubility Solubility of a substance depends on its physical and chemical properties as well as temperature, pressure and pH of the solution Saturation point is a stage at which no more of one substance can be dissolved into a solution

14 CONDUCTIVITY The conductivity of a material is its ability to carry energy Electrical conductivity refers to carrying electricity Thermal conductivity refers to carrying heat Most metals are good conductors of heat and electricity

15 SOME MORE PROPERTIES OF MATTER MALLEABILITY Is a physical property of matter, usually metals Ability of a metal to bend or be hammered into thin sheets without breaking Some examples are gold, iron, aluminum, copper, silver and lead Malleable metals are used to make jewelry, utensils, cans, foils etc. DUCTILITY Ability of a metal to be stretched into a wire Some metals can either have good malleability or ductility or both Gold has high malleability and ductility but lead has high malleability but low ductility Copper is highly ductile and is used to make copper wires for electrical purposes

17 RADIOACTIVITY The emission of radiation from an atom with an unstable nucleus. Chemical property of elements on periodic table with no stable isotopes The radiation can be emitted in the form of a positively charged alpha particle, a negatively charged Beta particle, or gamma rays. Uranium, Radium, Plutonium

18 USES OF RADIOACTIVE ELEMENTS Uranium and Plutonium are used to generate electricity in nuclear power plants Tritium and radium glow because of their radioactive decays. Tritium is used in small quantities in small vials on watch hands and to mark the hour positions on watch dials. Radium is not used any more Radioactive material is essential in medical care. Since radiation is relatively easy to detect, physicians give patients fairly harmless radioactive pills to find out whether anything is wrong or blocking the body's normal digestive functions or to test new drugs

19 DANGERS OF RADIOACTIVE ELEMENTS Scientists have long known that radiation can cause cancer in humans. Radioactive energy waves are so small that they can pass through the body and harm a person's genetic make up found in their DNA The atomic bomb, for example, takes advantage of clusters of uranium and plutonium exploding on top of each other to create a massive reaction During the second world war, explosion of atomic bomb in Japan caused lot of destruction
