DIRECT INSTRUCTION/TEACHER INPUT

What do you think these terms mean?


particles,
material and substance to the learners and ask them this
question..
• What do you think each one means?
• matter is anything that has mass and takes up space.
Why are windows made of glass?
•In this lesson, you will
learn how properties
can be used to classify
and identify matter.
Describing Matter

Why do all samples of a substance have the same


intensive properties?
Describing Matter

•Look at the materials on the table. What you observe


when you look at a particular sample of matter is its
properties.

• Is a solid shiny or dull?


• Does a liquid flow quickly or slowly?
• Is a gas odorless, or does it have a smell?

Describing Matter
Extensive Properties
•Recall that matter is anything that has mass and
takes up space.
• The mass of an object is a measure of the amount of matter the
object contains.

– The mass of a basketball is


greater than the mass of a golf
ball.

Intensive Properties
•For example, leather balls are suitable for indoor play
but not outdoor play.
• Leather balls absorb water and dirt more than rubber balls do.
Describing Matter
Identifying a Substance
•Matter that has a uniform and definite composition
is called a substance.

• Aluminum and copper are examples of substances, which are also


referred to as pure substances.

•Glass is often used to make windows, while copper
is often used in electrical wires. What properties
of glass make it a desirable material to use for
windows?
•Glass is transparent, so it can be seen through; hard, so it
stays in place within window frames; and heat resistant, so it
helps prevent the transfer of heat between outside and
inside.
•You want to compile a list of properties of a
substance, but you don’t have a way to measure
mass or volume. What kinds of properties can
you determine without knowing the amount of

Matter is anything around us. All matters are made up of particles.

A particle is a very small parts or bit of something.

Materials are mixture of different substances. Objects are made from different types of materials.

Substances are pure types of solid, liquid or gas. It is not a mixture. For example, salt, water etc are examples of substances.

Enquiries questions
Is glass a material or a substance? Say why.
