This lesson is designed to:



Review the definition of matter.
Review the physical properties of matter
and how we use our senses to describe
them.
Discuss how certain properties help us to
sort matter into categories or states of
matter.
Matter:
It’s what the world is made of.
What is matter?
•Everything in our
universe is made of
matter.
•All matter takes up space
and has weight.
•There are 3 basic states
of matter: Solid, liquid,
Gas
What do you know about matter?
Solids
Gases
Liquids
But what is the difference between a
solid, a liquid, or a gas?
Solids



Solids hold their own
shape.
Solids have weight.
Solids take up space.
Liquids



Liquids take the
shape of their
container.
Liquids have
weight.
Liquids take up
space.
Gases



Gases spread out to
fill the entire space
given.
Gases have weight.
Gases take up
space.
STATES of matter?
What would it take for matter to move
from one state to another?
Energy determines the state!
Gas
+ Energy =
Liquid
+ Energy =
Solid
All matter is made of
molecules…
This is two
H2O
molecules…
This is one water
molecule (H2O)…
Molecules in Solids:



Are packed tightly
together
Molecules only have
space to vibrate.
Have very little energy
Molecules in Liquids:



Are loosely packed
Molecules flow freely
Have medium
energy levels
Molecules in Gases:



Move freely
Molecules shoot
every direction
Have LOTS of
energy
Add or subtract energy, and matter
changes state!
What will happen when we add the
energy from the sun?
