Vocabulary /Vocabulario

States of Matter

SolidLiquidGasPlasma

Solids

•Have definite shape and definite volume

•Particles are tightly packed

Liquids•Do not have definite shape but do have definite volume

•Particles are loosely packed

Gases

•Do not have definite shape or definite volume

•Particles are very far apart

Matter:

Anything that has mass

and takes up space

Cualquier cosa que tenga masa

y ocupa espacio

Mass:

the amount of matter in an object

measured with a balance

la cantidad de materia en un objeto

medido con una escala

Volume:

the amount of space an object takes up

measured with a ruler or graduated cylinder

la cantidad de espacio que ocupa un objeto

medido con una regla o cilindro graduado

DO NOT LOOK INTO THE SACK!!!Using your senses try to determine what is

in your secret sack.Record your observations in your

notebook.

Physical Properties

Are characteristics or features that describe matter

Can be measured without changing the chemical properties

Son las características o rasgos que describen la materia

Se puede medir sin cambiar las propiedades químicas

Examples include/Ejemplos incluyen

Color SizeShapeTexture

Examples include/Ejemplos incluyen

Properties of Matter include:

How it looks (shiny, dull, colored)

How it feels (hard, soft, rough, smooth)

How it smells (sweet, salty, flowery)

How it sounds (loud, soft, hollow)

How it tastes (sweet salty, bitter, sour)

What it does (bounce, bubble, tear)

Characteristic Properties

Are properties that do NOT change as mass, volume and/or shape change.

Are properties of a substance, not a specific object

Son propiedades que no cambian como masa, volumen y / o cambio de forma .

Son propiedades de una sustancia , no un objeto específico

Examples include/Ejemplos incluyen

Boiling pointMelting pointSolubilityDensity

Punto de ebullición

Punto de fusión

SolubilidadDensidad

Characteristic Properties

Because characteristic properties are usually not affected by physical changes, they can be used to identify matter

Debido a que las propiedades características son por lo general no afectados por los cambios físicos , pueden ser utilizados para identificar la materia

Physical Characteristics of Water

Boiling point of water is 212°F (99.98°C)

Melting point of water is 32°F (0°C)

Punto de ebullición del agua es de 212 ° F ( 99,98 ° C )

Punto de fusión del agua es de 32 ° F ( 0 ° C )

Melting Point Activity

Watch video of two pieces of ice melting on two similar surfaces.

One surface is made of metalThe other is made of plastic

Melting Point Activity

Which melted fastest, metal or plastic?

Where did the energy come from to melt the ice?

What do you think happened to the speed of the molecules in the ice when it was heated?

Melting Point ActivityWrite in your notebook

Which melted fastest, metal or plastic?

Where did the energy come from to melt the ice?

What do you think happened to the speed of the molecules in the ice when it was heated?

Que se derretía más rápido , de metal o de plástico ?

¿De dónde procede la energía para derretir el hielo ?

¿Qué crees que le pasó a la velocidad de las moléculas en el hielo cuando se calienta ?

Melting Point ActivityWrite in your notebook

How can you make ice melt faster?

What did you see happen?

Which substance boiled the fastest?

How do you explain this?

Solubility

Solubility is a measure of how much solute can dissolve in a solvent at a given temperature.

Solubility is a characteristic property of matter.

La solubilidad es una medida de la cantidad de soluto pueden disolver en un disolvente a una temperatura dada.

La solubilidad es una propiedad característica de la materia.

Solubility

The substance in which something is dissolved in is called the solvent

The solute is what is dissolved in the solvent.

La sustancia en la que se disuelve algo en el disolvente

El soluto es lo que se disuelve en el disolvente

Solution

Any substance - solid, liquid,or gas – that is evenly distributed through another substance – solid, liquid, or gas.

Cualquier sustancia - sólido, líquido o gas - que se distribuye uniformemente a través de otra sustancia - sólido , líquido o gas.

Example/Ejemplo

Saltwater

–Salt is the solute

–Water is the solvent

Agua salada

–Sal es el soluto

–El agua es el disolvente

Solubility Lab

Put one teaspoon of each substance (solvent) into water (solute).

Stir a littleRecord in your

journal what you see.

Ponga una cucharadita de cada sustancia (disolvente ) en agua ( soluto ) .

Se agita un pocoEscribe en tu diario

lo que ves.
