Study of matter, its characteristics, composition, and transformation.
CHEMISTRY
anything that occupies space and has mass.
Matter
the amount of matter.
Mass
mass dependent on gravity; acceleration due to gravity.
Weight
is the measure of the amount of occupied space.
Volume
State of matter that has a definite shape and definite volume.
Solid
State of matter that has indefinite shape (it takes the shape of its container), and a definite volume.
Liquid
State of matter that has indefinite shape and indefinite volume (assumes the shape and volume of its container).
Gas
What is the particle motion of solid matter?
intact; vibrates only due to its compactness
What is the particle motion of liquid matter?
has space; particles flows through each other
What is the particle motion of gas matter?
particles are apart from each other; moves fast
ratio of the mass of an object to the volume occupied by that object.
Density
is a measure of the change in volume of a sample of matter resulting from a pressure change.
Compressibility
is a measure of the change in volume of a sample of matter resulting from a temperature change.
Thermal expansion
illustrates the composition of matter
Space filling model
distinguishing characteristic that is used in the identification and description of matter
Property of matter
observable characteristics without changing composition (ex: color and shape; solid, liquid, or gas; boiling point, melting point)
Physical property
not dependent on mass (ex: boiling point, color, temperature, luster, hardness).
