What is the definition of matter?

Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space, consisting of atoms and molecules.

What are the three states of matter?

The three states of matter are solid, liquid, and gas.

How are the particles arranged in a solid?

In a solid, particles are arranged closely together in a fixed, orderly pattern. The particles vibrate in place but do not move around each other, giving solids a definite shape and volume.

How are the particles arranged in a liquid?

In a liquid, particles are arranged relatively close together but are free to move past one another. Unlike in a solid where particles are tightly packed in a fixed position, in a liquid, the particles have more energy and are constantly in motion, allowing them to flow and change position easily.

How are the particles arranged in a gas?

Particles in a gas are arranged in a random and constantly moving manner, with molecules and atoms moving in all directions at high speeds. They have a lot of space between them compared to liquids and solids, allowing gases to expand to fill any available volume. The particles in a gas do not have a fixed position and are not held tightly together like in solids or liquids.

What is the difference between physical and chemical properties of matter?

Physical properties of matter are characteristics that can be observed or measured without changing the substance's chemical composition, such as color, size, shape, and density. On the other hand, chemical properties describe how a substance interacts with other substances to form new substances with different chemical compositions, such as flammability, reactivity, and toxicity. In essence, physical properties refer to observable characteristics, while chemical properties involve the behavior of substances in chemical reactions.

Give an example of a physical change.

Melting ice into water is an example of a physical change. In this process, the substance changes from a solid state (ice) to a liquid state (water) without undergoing any chemical reactions, making it a physical change.

Give an example of a chemical change.

One example of a chemical change is the rusting of iron. When iron is exposed to oxygen and moisture in the air, a chemical reaction occurs, forming iron oxide (rust) on the surface of the iron. This process is irreversible and results in a change in the chemical composition of the iron.

What is the law of conservation of mass?

The law of conservation of mass states that in a closed system, mass is neither created nor destroyed, but instead it is conserved. This means that the total mass of a closed system remains constant over time, even if it undergoes physical or chemical changes. Mass may change form during a reaction or process, but it cannot be created or destroyed.

Name three examples of everyday objects that are made of matter.

A pencil, a glass of water, and a chair are everyday objects that are made of matter.
