BIG IDEA: Matter is defined by its properties and may undergo changes.

ESSENTIAL QUESTION: What properties define matter?

Answer to Essential Question (answers will vary…glue worksheet provided to assist)

Matter is defined by physical properties and chemical properties. Physical properties that define matter are color, shape, texture, hardness, softness, luster, phase, density, weight, mass, and buoyancy. Additionally, matter is defined by chemical properties such as ability to react with water and elements bonded in the matter.

Venn Diagram Compare and Contrast Iceberg to Anchor1. Compare and contrast the iceberg and anchor (provided answers is written in the Venn Diagram)

Compare: made of matter, go in water, solids, on its own do not produce sound, nonliving Contrasts: manmade vs natural, iceberg floats/anchor sinks, iceberg shapeless/anchor has a predetermined shape, anchor is made of metal/iceberg Made of water, anchors are very dense/ice is less dense

1. Why does the iceberg float?When water freezes, the volume of space between particles expands so the water particles take the path of least resistance and move to fill the greater volume, thus making ice less dense than water. D=m/v

2. Why does the anchor sink? The density of the anchor will always be greater than 1 g/mL or 1cc which is the density of water; therefore the anchor will always sink no matter how much water is present, even an entire ocean.

LAB Differentiated instruction How does mass differ from weight? LAB regular and irregular shaped objects. Answers will vary depending on mass selected from set.

Mass is measured on a scale or triple beam balance, weight is measured by gravitational pull towards the core of earth so use a spring scale. Known mass means to use a mass such as 5g, 50g from the mass sets.

LL ine rtia (DISCUSSED AS A GROUP ADD ‘L”By writing the letter ‘l’ before the word inertia which is a force that resists a change in motion, the first four letters form the word line. Inertia was the force of objects after the Big Bang, but gravity pulled stars and planets around corners to orbital paths.

VOCABULARY SECTION

MNE U1L1 define and draw to connectMatter – anything that has mass and occupies space

Mass-a physical property, the amount of matter present, mass does not change with location. Sun, rooster, sky, atmosphere are all matter.

Weight-a physical property, the gravitational pull of an object towards the core of another object, weight changes with location, example on the moon weight of objects is 1/6 the weight of objects on earth.

Volume- a measure in cc or mL or cm3 of the amount of space an object occupies. Volume is calculated using geometric formulas for regular shaped objects and displacement of water for irregular shaped objects.

Density - D = m/V Valentines Day equation because a heart divided in half looks like m/V. Remember l g/cc, 1 g/cme and 1 g/mL of water are all equal and the density of water. Therefore, any object with a density greater than the density of water sinks. Any object with a density less than the density of water floats.

Displacement – record the original volume of water, place an irregular shaped object in the water, calculate displacement volume = the final volume minus the original volume Vd = Vf - Vi

Precision - how many times repeated measurements (under same conditions) show the same resultsAccuracy – the degree (how close or far) the closeness of a measurement is to the true measurement

Most STUDENTS had to watch BRAINPOP “Thunderstorms” to re-answer Digital Lesson U1L1 Assessment question 1 Is lightning matter? In their notebooks as a writing assignment.

#1 digital lesson assessment Is lightning matter?CLASS CONTRIBUTED AND TEACHER MODELED WRITINGS:

Is lightning matter?

To answer this question, consider the definition of matter. Matter is anything that occupies space and has mass. Per the BrianPop titled “Thunderstorms”, sheet lightning is when lightning occupies only the space in a cloud. From this statement, the conclusion, lightning occupies space, can be declared and one of two criteria to define lightning as matter was met. The second criteria, that lightning has mass, which is defined as the amount of matter present, is also satisfied via circular argument. Lightning occupies space so lightning is matter that is present; therefore, lightning has mass.

Furthermore, the video offers the scientific support that lightning is matter from the fact that lightning emits heat energy. By definition, heat energy is matter. The video demonstrated the proof that lightning emits heat energy by measuring the temperature of a copper lightning rod before and after lightning strikes the rod. The temperature of the copper lightning rod increased after the rod is hit by lightning; therefore, heat energy was transferred.

Another support that lightning is matter was revealed in the video by stating thunder exists only when lightning exists. For either to exist, both must be matter. We cannot see thunder, yet thunder is heard and exists. Thunder travels as invisible sound waves. Sound waves occupy space as they travel and have mass. Likewise, lightning travels to the ground as visible, jagged light that detours between various air particles to take the path of least resistance to the ground. Since lightning travels we can conclude lightning occupies space. Additionally, the detouring of lightning to strike air particles offering less resistance supports the second criteria that matter must have mass.

In conclusion, lightning occupies space because lightning can stay only in the space of clouds, such as when sheet strikes are produced, or detour through space to the ground. Also, lightning has mass because lightning transfers heat energy that can be measured as temperature. Additionally, lightening detours to take the path of least resistance between air particles. Therefore, lightning occupies space and has mass which are the two criteria used to define all matter.
