Matter and Energy

Chapter 1

Bell Work

1. What is the volume of a box that is 10 cm long, 3 cm wide, and 2 cm high?

2. What method do you use to find the volume of an irregular shaped object?

1.1 Vocab

Matter – anything that has mass and takes up space

Mass – measure of how much matter an object has

1.1 Vocab

Weight – the downward pull on an object due to gravity

Volume – the amount of space an object takes up. (for a regular solid length x width x height)

Bell Work – Write down these vocab words on your bell work sheet.

Particle – a very small piece of matter, such as an atom, molecule, or ion

Substance – matter of a particular type. Elements, compounds, and mixtures are all substances

Bell Work

Decide if these statements are true or false. If false correct them.

1. Substances you can see are matter, but substances you cannot see are not matter.

2. Mass and weight are the same thing.

3. Formulas can be used to calculate the volume of many solids with a regular shape.

1.2 Vocab

Atom – the smallest basic unit of matter

Molecule – two or more atoms that have bonded together

Bell Work

Mass Both Weight

When Finished study for test

Bell Work

Write each sentence then write down the term that matches it: matter, volume, atom, weight, molecule

1. The smallest basic unit of matter

2. A particle made when two or more atoms combine

3. Anything that has mass and takes up space

1.3 Vocab

Element – consists of atoms of only one type.

Compound – a substance made up of 2 or more different types of atoms bonded together.

Mixture – a combination of 2 or more substances. Do not combine chemically and can be separated by physical means.

Heterogeneous mixture: a mixture that has different properties in different areas of the mixture (is not the same throughout)

Homogeneous mixture: a mixture that is evenly spread throughout (is the same throughout)

Bell Work 10/6/10

Make the following chart for mixtures and compounds. Use page 24 for help.

Mixtures Both Compounds

1.4 Vocab

States of matter – different forms in which matter can exist.

Solid- a substance that has a fixed volume and a fixed shape.

1.4 Vocab

Liquid – has a fixed volume but does not have a fixed shape.

Gas – has no fixed volume or shape.
