sual images which students can easily understand. Much emphasis is placed on the concepts of mass and weight by comparing a kilogram of feathers to a kilogram of marble. The similarities and differences between these two very different substances are discussed. The computation of volume is explored via maathematical formulas and displacement techniques. Finally density is made understandable by looking at substances with different densities such as gases, lead, marble and feathers. The video is vocabulary-rich and uses key terminology such as matter, property, chemical properties, flammability, reactivity, physical properties, color, odor, smell, shape, texture, mass, weight, volume and density. Numerous colorful and easy-to-understand graphics greatly enhance student understanding of the key concepts involved with learning about the properties of matter. A strong emphasis is placed on the mathematical equations used in calculating volume and density. The video concludes with a 10question video quiz. Video Quiz The video concludes with a ten-question Video Quiz which may be used to gage student comprehension immediately after the presentation of the video.

AGC/United Learning • 1560 Sherman Ave., Suite 100 • Evanston, IL 60201 • 800-323-9084

deletions to meet the specific needs of your class. We encourage you to do so, for only by tailoring this program to your class will they obtain the maximum instructional benefits afforded by the materials. It is also suggested that the video presentation take place before the entire group under your supervision. The lesson activities grow out of the context of the video, therefore, the presentation should be a common experience for all students. Student Preparation You may want students to look up the vocabulary words addressed in the video, have them write down the definitions, and review their spelling and pronunciation. Terms such as matter, property, chemical properties, flammability, reactivity, physical properties, mass, weight, volume and density may be unfamiliar to students, and studying them before viewing the video will enhance student understanding. Introducing the Video Ask students to define the word “matter.” Note its popular uses, such as “What is the matter with you?” How could this use of the word matter relate to science? Ask students to list things that are made up of matter. Write their answers on the board. Are there similarities between these objects? Differences? Once students have determined their definition of matter, stress that, in reality, everything they touch, taste and see is made of matter. Now list some of the ways in which to describe matter. Use a specific object in your classroom. What is its color? Shape? 7

AGC/United Learning • 1560 Sherman Ave., Suite 100 • Evanston, IL 60201 • 800-323-9084

Texture? Smell? Stress that these qualities are used in science to describe all matter, and that the video they are about to see will explore many facts about matter. Student Objectives After viewing the video and completing the lessons and activities, students should be able to do the following: • Define the vocabulary words addressed in the video and in the Word Search Activity. • Describe some of the properties of matter. • Describe the difference between a chemical property and a physical property • Calculate the amount of volume an object takes up • Calculate the density of a simple object View the Video This video is approximately eighteen minutes in length FOLLOW-UP ACTIVITIES Discussion Questions Following the video, students may have additional questions.

There are two major categories of properties of matter: physical properties, and chemical properties. Physical properties are the outwardly characteristics of matter. Chemical properties describes how matter changes into other new matter. 11

AGC/United Learning • 1560 Sherman Ave., Suite 100 • Evanston, IL 60201 • 800-323-9084

2. Some examples of chemical properties include flammability, reactivity, and combustibility. 3. Some examples of physical properties include color, odor, texture, weight, and density. 4. An example of needing to calculate the volume of a substance might occur when purchasing a refrigerator. The size of a refrigerator is stated in cubic feet. One needs to know the length, width, and height of the refrigerator and space size opening in the kitchen before a reasonable purchase can be made. 5. An example of when you might want to know or calculate the density of an object occurs when making jewelry. You need to know how malleable the different metals are, such as copper or gold, when pounding or bending the materials. 6. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. Mass stays constant regardless of the gravitational force applied to the object. Weight is a measure of mass of an object in a specific gravitational field. Weight can vary depending on the force of gravity on the object. The weight of an object is more on earth, than the same object on the moon where the gravitational force is less. The mass of the object remains the same regardless of the object. Blackline Master #4: Word Search Vocabulary Definitions: matter - any thing that takes up space property - a trait or characteristic of matter chemical properties - describe how mater changes into other new matter flammability - ability of an object to burn reactivity - ability to react with other matter physical properties - outwardly observable characteristics of matter color - the outwardly observable color of matter odor - the smell of matter smell - the odor of matter 12

Blackline Master #8: Identifying Properties of Matter Answers will vary depending on the objects chosen, but an example is provided below for a single object. Example: Data Table Object

Color

wooden tan ruler

Texture

Odor

Density (low or high)

Shape

Other Properties

smooth with a sharp edge

none

low

long thin rectangle

has numbers and lines on it; floats in water

Conclusion Describing the color, texture, shape, and odor of objects is a relatively easy task to carry out, although there may be exceptions. Density requires some more thought and experience. In this particular exercise, students are asked to state merely if they think the density is high or low (relative estimate). If a more exact measurement is needed, students would need to weigh the object, calculate its volume, and then compute its density. Other properties that would be useful in describing an object would be its various chemical properties. Properties such as flammability and reactivity would aid in the description of an object. Student answers will vary concerning the chemical properties of objects. In the case of a wooden ruler, some of its chemical properties include the fact that it is flammable and is made of wood.

Conclusion: Students may have encountered difficulties in using scales or balances to calculate the mass (weight) of objects. They may also have encountered difficulties calculating volume via displacement or via the mathematical equation for volume. Measurements could be made more precise by using a more sophisticated scale or balance. Other tests of the physical properties of the objects could be administered such as color, taste, texture, etc. The chemical properties of the objects could be administered, although these are often more difficult to carry out. Blackline Master #10: Post- Test 1. matter 2. taste, see 3. flammability, reactivity. 4. color, odor, shape, texture 5. mass 6.

Density is measured by dividing mass by volume. 13. 2.5 grams/cubic centimeters Properties of Matter Script of Narration Everywhere you look you see objects. You see objects with different shapes and different colors. All these things consist of matter. Matter is the substance from which all living things are made. Plants are made of matter Animals like these fish are made of matter Matter is also the substance which non-living things, such as the rocks in this mountain are made. Buildings and cars are made of matter and this plane is made of matter. Water is made of matter. Even the air we breathe is made of matter There are thousands of different kinds of objects in the world - all made up of matter. During the next few minutes we are going to explore the many different characteristics of matter. First, what is matter? Matter is anything that takes up space. Solid objects like this tractor are made of matter Liquid, like water in this river, is also made of matter. And gas filling up this balloon is made of matter. Even people are made of matter Everything we touch, taste, and see is made of matter As we have seen, there are many different types of matter. There are many ways to describe it as well. Different types of matter have different characteristics or properties. A property is a trait or characteristic of matter. Matter can be described by its properties. For example, this ball can be described as being round, blue, rubbery, and smooth - to name just a few properties. Matter has two kinds of properties - chemical properties and physical properties. Chemical properties describe how matter changes into other new matter. Let's take a common substance - wood that comes from trees. 17

AGC/United Learning • 1560 Sherman Ave., Suite 100 • Evanston, IL 60201 • 800-323-9084

Throughout the world wood is cut and used for cooking and heat. That is because wood has the chemical property called flammability. Flammability is the ability of an object to burn Many types of matter have the ability to react with other matter. This is called reactivity. For instance, when vinegar is added to baking soda a reaction takes place. Physical properties are the outwardly observable characteristics of matter. You can see, touch or taste physical properties. Let us see what physical properties we can observe in this piece of rock called marble. Marble is a rock that is taken from the ground in quarries like this one. It is used in making buildings and is useful in household items and is important in making many products like paint. Marble has many physical properties, some of which we will discuss in a few moments. One of the most obvious physical properties of solid matter is color. This piece of marble has a light, whitish color. Leaves on these trees have a green color. This cow is black and white and these pumpkins are orange. Odor or smell is another physical property of matter. For example, this gasoline has a strong odor, many flowers have a sweet odor, and many objects like our piece of marble have no odor at all. Shape is another physical property of matter. Liquids do not have a definite shape and take on the shape of the container. Whereas solids like this egg have an oval shape, and other objects like these floating pieces of ice have an irregular shape. Our piece of marble once had an irregular shap, but now it has a regular shape called a cube. Texture is a physical property that describes how rough or smooth an object is. Some objects like this bark on a tree are rough, whereas these silk scarves have a soft, smooth texture. Color, shape, odor, and texture are just a few physical properties. Mass and weight are other physical properties that we will now consider. Here is a tricky question so think carefully - What weighs more, a kilogram of feathers or a kilogram of rock? If you said neither, and that they both weigh the same, then you are not easily fooled. Even though these two types of matter weigh the same, they are quite different from each other . Let's see how. Mass is a physical characteristic of matter. Mass is the amount of matter in an object. Different objects have different amounts of mass. Weight is another physical property. Weight and mass are not the same thing. Weight is a measure of mass. While the mass of an object can stay constant its weight can change. Weight is the force of an object due to the gravitational pull of the planet. For example, the weight of a person on earth is much greater than the 18

AGC/United Learning • 1560 Sherman Ave., Suite 100 • Evanston, IL 60201 • 800-323-9084

same person on the moon because the gravitational pull on the moon is much less. Even though the person's weight changes his mass stays the same. The weight of objects is most commonly measured on a scale or balance. The metric system uses kilograms and grams to measure weight. In our example of the feather and rock - they have the same weight of about kilogram. So what makes them different? While they have the same weight they have different volumes. Volume is the amount of space something takes up. Solids such as these crystals, liquids such as this glass of juic, and gases like this propane burning on this stove all have volume. All matter has volume - in other words all matter takes up space. There are different ways to measure volume, depending on whether it is a solid, liquid, or gas we want to measure. Liquid, like this milk is measured out in containers using units of milliliters, whereas in the laboratory, beakers or graduated cylinders are commonly used. Gases are measured by weight with different containers that measure gas in cubic centimeters or by weight. The volume of solids can be measured in a couple of different ways. For solids with a regular shape like our piece of marble the volume can be computed using a ruler and doing some simple calculations. Volume equals length times height times width With our piece of marble the length is 6.7 cm., the height is 7.5 cm., and the width is 7.5 cm. These are then multiplied to get a volume of 376.9 cm3 This method works well with regularly shaped solids, but what about irregularly shaped solids like this rabbit figurine that is difficult to measure with a ruler? Displacement is a method for measuring volume of irregularly shaped solids. For example, when you put your hand into a beaker of water watch what happens to the water in the glass - it goes up or displaces. Displacement involves submerging an object in water and then identifying the amount of water that moves up or displaces. To compute the volume of an object using displacement, first it is necessary to read the initial amount of water in a beaker and record it. The value reads 150 ml. Then the object is placed under the water so the water rises. You can see the new level of the water is 175 ml. The initial amount of water is then subtracted from the new value to get the amount of space or volume that the figurine took up in the water to get a value of 25 ml. You may be wondering why the units of volume for the piece of marble were in cubic centimeters, and the units for the rabbit figurine were in milliliters This is the beauty of the metric system, 1 milliliter of water = 1 cubic centimeter of water To prove this, let's look at a cubic centime19

AGC/United Learning • 1560 Sherman Ave., Suite 100 • Evanston, IL 60201 • 800-323-9084

ter. See how its length, height, and width are one centimeter. If we multiply the length by the height then by the width we get onecubic centimeter This is an actual representation of a cubic centimeter You can see here that one cubic centimeter is equivalent to one milliliter of water Going back to our feathers, they have an uncompressed volume of 16,000 cubic centimeters. The rock and feathers weighed the same, but the feathers had a much greater volume. You may be wondering what causes this difference? It is the same principle that causes some objects like this rock to sink in water and cause other objects like this log to float. The difference between the two has to do with their density. Density is the amount of matter per unit of volume. Different objects have different densities. For example, most metals, like this piece of lead have a high density. Whereas gas has a low density.Density can be calculated using the equation Density equals Mass divided by Volume With our piece of marble, we found the mass to be 1000 grams and the volume to be 376.9 cm3 by dividing the mass by the volume we get a density of 2.65 gr./cm3 Do you think the density of the feathers will be greater or less than the density of the piece of marble? Let's do the math. We know the feathers weigh 1000 grams and the volume is 16,000 milliliters. By dividing the mass by the volume we get a density of .06 grams per cubic centimeter. As you can see, the feathers have a lower density than the marble. In other words, the marble has more mass per unit of volume. During the past few minutes we have explored some of the chemical properties of matter such as flammability and reactivity. We also explored some of the physical properties of matter including color, odor, texture and shape as well as mass, volume, and density. These are just some of the many properties of matter Next time you get a chance -- try to identify some of the properties of matter in your surroundings -- you just might be surprised at what you find.
