What is matter and how is it classified?
Lesson 1Describing Matter
Lesson 2Measurement
Lesson 3Classifying Matter
What are the states of matter?
This musical instrument is a solid. Its particles are packed closely together.
Juice is a liquid. Its particles are less tightly packed.
Inside these balloons is a gas. Gas particles move about freely and spread far apart.
A __________ has no definite shape, and does not take up a definite amount of space.
The amount of matter making up an object is __________.
__________ is how much space an object takes up.
The upward force of a liquid or gas on an object is __________.
Volume
buoyancy mass gas volume
Vocabulary
A __________ has no definite shape, but it has a definite volume.
A __________ has a definite shape and volume.
__________ is anything that has mass and takes up space.
__________ is a characteristic that you can observe.

Vocabulary
Compare and Contrast
Choose two states of matter. How are they alike? How are they different?
End of Lesson
Liquids do not have a definite
shape. Particles in liquids are farther apart.
Solids have a definite shape.
Particles in solids are
closer together.
Solids and liquids
both have a definite volume.
How do we measure matter?
4 in.
10 cm
You can measure length in centimeters or inches.
Kitchen tools measure volume in tablespoons or teaspoons.
A baker may measure volume in cups or pints.
What is weight?
An object with a mass of 1 kg weighs 9.8 newton's on Earth.
Earth Moon
On the Moon, the same object weighs just 1.6 newton's.
________ measures the amount of gravity between an object and a planet.
A force, or pull, between all objects is ________.
The amount of matter in a given space is ________.
densitygravity

Vocabulary
_____________ is the number of units that fit from one end to the other.
The number of unit squares that covers a surface describes its _____________.
The _____________ is based on units of ten.
area
Length

Vocabulary
metric system
Problem and
Solution
Describe how to find the volume of air in your classroom.
End of Lesson
Find the volume of air in the classroom.
Measure the length, width, and height of the classroom.
Multiply the room’s length, width, and height to find the volume of the classroom.
What are elements?
Neon is a gas. In a tube, neon glows if electricity is added.
Artists use copper to make jewelry
Aluminum is strong and light in weight.
pure copper
How do scientists use the periodic
table?
Bananas have lots of
potassium (K). Elements in the
potassium column react
with nonmetals.
Many nails are made of iron (Fe), cobalt (Co), or nickel (Ni). These
elements are all magnetic.
This is a sample of fluorine (F). All the
elements in the fluorine column form
salts with all the elements in column 1.
How can you classify matter?
Main Idea
Matter is organized into patterns based on the properties of the elements.
element atom
Vocabulary
The ____________ is a chart that classifies all known elements in groups.
The smallest part of an element is an ____________.
An ____________ is a substance that is made up of only one type of matter.
A ____________ is an element that conducts heat and electricity.

List all the elements mentioned in this lesson. Use the periodic table to classify each one
as metal, nonmetal, or metalloid.
