Chapter 2Matter and Change
Matter
uMatter is anything that has mass and takes up space.
Matter
u Mass is a measure of the amount of “stuff” (or material) the object contains (don’t confuse this with weight, a measure of gravity)
u Volume is a measure of the space occupied by the object
Describing Matter
u Properties used to describe matter.
u Properties are words that describe matter (adjectives).
u There are two type of properties:
u Physical Properties
u Chemical Properties

Physical vs. Chemical Properties
u Physical Properties- a property that can be observed and measured without changing the material’s composition.
uExamples- color, hardness, m.p., b.p.
u Chemical Properties- a property that can only be observed by changing the composition of the material.
uExamples- ability to burn, decompose, ferment, react with, etc.
States of matter1) Solid- matter that can not flow (definite shape) and has definite
volume.
2) Liquid- definite volume but takes the shape of its container (flows).
3) Gas- a substance without definite volume or shape and can flow.
u Vapor- a substance that is currently a gas, but normally is a liquid or solid at room temperature. (Which is correct: “water gas”, or “water vapor”?)

Physical vs. Chemical Change
u Physical change will change the visible appearance, without changing the composition of the material.
uBoil, melt, cut, bend, split, crack
u Chemical change - a change where a new form of matter is formed.
uRust, burn, decompose, ferment
