Matter is everything around you. Matter is anything made of atoms and molecules. Matter is anything that has a mass.
Matter can be changed. It can go through physical change or chemical change.
Physical changes are a change in state or form that does not result in a new substance being created.
Some common examples of physical changes are: • melting • freezing • condensing • breaking • crushing • cutting • bending
Chemical changes result in the formation of a new substance via a chemical reaction. • Energy is required for a chemical change to take place.
Chemical Reaction • Process in which one or more substance changes to produce one or more new substances with different chemical and physical properties. • During a chemical reaction, molecular bonds are broken and new bonds are made.
Signs that a chemical change has occurred: • production of a gas (bubbles) • formation of a new odor • production of a precipitate (solid) • change of color • Energy change given off as light, thermal, or electrical energy
Common examples of chemical changes that you may be somewhat familiar with are: • digestion • respiration • photosynthesis • burning • decomposition
