Changes in Matter
Changes in Matter 1.2 5th grade
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Heterogenous | a substance in which the parts are clearly different shapes and colors; different throughout |
Homogenous | a substance in which all of the parts are the same throughout |
Temperature | how much energy the particles in matter have. |
State of Matter | depends on temperature/energy |
Freezing | change of state from liquid to solid |
Boiling | liquid heated to the point gas bubbles are forming |
Melting | change of state from solid to liquid (physical change) |
Evaporating | change of state from liquid to gas |
Condensation | change of state from gas to liquid |
Mixture | form of matter made of two or more parts (physical change) |
Atmosphere | mixture of many gases layered around the Earth |
Physical change | occur when materials are mixed and do NOT combine chemically; easily reversed |
Two ways to separate mixtures | evaporating or using a filter |
Solution | a mixture in which a solid and a liquid or two liquids are mixed so evenly, that it is not possible to see the separate particles |
Chemical change | produces a new substance when two materials or more combine chemically; CANNOT be easily reversed |
Rust | the result of a chemical change between iron and oxygen |
Physical Properties | color, texture, amount, etc. |
State changes | are a physical change due to the energy in the matter; WILL NOT affect the amount of a substance |
Law of Conservation of Mass | In a closed system, a physical process such as applying heat may change the form of a substance. However, the mass of the system is conserved |
Physical change examples | water and ice, oil and vinegar, salt and pepper, sugar and water, milk and corn flakes |
Chemical change examples | vinegar and baking soda, lemon juice and baking soda |
Examples of solutions | salt dissolved in water, carbon dioxide and water, sugar in hot tea |
