This unit explores the properties of matter, distinguishing between physical and chemical properties. A physical property can be observed or measured without altering the substance's identity, such as density, solubility, and malleability. Chemical properties, on the other hand, describe a substance’s ability to transform into new substances, as seen in flammability and reactivity. Learn how these properties help identify and categorize substances based on their unique characteristics and behaviors in various conditions.

Properties of Matter Unit 1: Matter
Properties of Matter What is a physical property in a substance?
Properties of Matter A physical property is a characteristic of a substance that can be observed and measured without changing the identity of the substance
Properties of Matter What are some examples?
Properties of Matter • Density is a measure of the amount of mass in a given amount of volume • Electrical conductivity is a measure of how well an electric current can move through a substance
Properties of Matter • Solubility is the ability of a substance to dissolve in another substance • Malleability is the ability of a substance to be rolled or pounded into various shapes
Properties of Matter • Luster is how shiny a metal is • Melting point of a substance is the temperature at which it changes from a solid to a liquid • Boiling point of a substance is the temperature at which it changes from a liquid to a vapor
Properties of Matter What is a chemical property in a substance?
Properties of Matter A chemical property describes a substance’s ability to change into a new substance with different properties.
Properties of Matter What are some examples?
Properties of Matter • Flammability is the ability of a substance to burn • Reactivity is the ability of a substance to interact with another substance and form one or more new substances
Properties of Matter What is the difference between physical and chemical properties?
Properties of Matter A physical property can be observed without changing the identity of the substance. A chemical property can be observed only by changing the substance.
Properties of Matter How can physical and chemical properties identify a substance?
Properties of Matter Substances can be identified their characteristic properties, which are unique to that substance.
Properties of Matter Summary • A physical property is a property that can be observed or measured without changing the identity of the substance • A chemical property is a property that describes a substance’s ability to for new substances • The properties that are most useful in identifying a substance are its characteristic properties and can be physical and chemical properties
