The properties of matter include any traits that can be measured, such as an object's density, color, mass, volume, length, malleability, melting point, hardness, odor, temperature, and more. ... Physical Properties: include size, shape, color, texture etc. The melting point and freezing point are also physical properties.
In classical physics and general chemistry, matter is any substance that has mass and takes up space by having volume.
Chemical Changes
A chemical change, also known as a chemical reaction, is a process in which one or more substances are altered into one or more new and different substances. In other words, a chemical change is a chemical reaction involving the rearrangement of atoms.
Chemical vs Physical changes
A chemical change results from a chemical reaction, while a physical change is when matter changes forms but not chemical identity. Examples of chemical changes are burning, cooking, rusting, and rotting. Examples of physical changes are boiling, melting, freezing, and shredding.
Physical Changes
A physical change is a type of change in which the form of matter is altered but one substance is not transformed into another. The size or shape of matter may be changed, but no chemical reaction occurs. Physical changes are usually reversible.pic
Mass measures the amount of matter in a substance or an object. The basic SI unit for mass is the kilogram (kg). Volume measures the amount of space that a substance or an object takes up. The basic SI unit for volume is the cubic meter (m3).
Liquid to Gas is called Evaporation
Liquid to Solid is called Frezing
Solid to Liquid is called Melting
Solid to Gas is called Sublimation
Gas to Solid is called Depostion
Gas to Liquid is called Condensation
Changes of state are physical changes in matter. They are reversible changes that do not involve changes in matter's chemical makeup or chemical properties. Common changes of state include melting, freezing, sublimation, deposition, condensation, and vaporization.
Liquid
A liquid is a nearly incompressible fluid that conforms to the shape of its container but retains a constant volume independent of pressure. As such, it is one of the four fundamental states of matter, and is the only state with a definite volume but no fixed shape.
Solid
Solid is one of the four fundamental states of matter. The atoms in a solid are closely packed together and contain the least amount of kinetic energy. A solid is characterized by structural rigidity and resistance to a force applied to the surface.
Gas
Gas is one of the four fundamental states of matter. A pure gas may be made up of individual atoms, elemental molecules made from one type of atom, or compound molecules made from a variety of atoms. A gas mixture, such as air, contains a variety of pure gases.
How the 3 states of matter are measured
Intensive properties, such as density and color, do not depend on the amount of the substance present. Physical properties can be measured without changing a substance's chemical identity. Chemical properties can be measured only by changing a substance's chemical identity.
