Chapter 3 : Matter

3.1 Understanding that matter has mass and occupies the space
Learning Outcomes :

By the end of this lesson, students should be able to : State the things have mass and occupy space Explain the meaning of matter Relate things and matter Carry out activities to show that air, water, soil and living things have mass and occupy space

The balloon increase in size

Air leaks out from balloon X. The water does not enter the Balloon X becomes lighter beaker than balloon Y

Air occupies the space.

Air occupies space and has Air occupies the space mass When air is blown into the Water does not enter the balloon, the air occupies the beaker because the space in space inside the balloon, the beaker is filled with water. causing the balloon to increase in size

Chapter 3 : Matter
3.2 Understanding the three states of matter
Learning Outcomes :

By the end of this lesson, students should be able to : State that matter is made up of particles State the three states of matter State the arrangement of particles in the three states of matter State the differences in the movement of particles in the three states of matter

3 states of matter

Arrangement of particles in solid, liquid and gaseous state

Measure the volume of irregular by water displacement method

Measure the mass of irregular object by using these apparatus

In order to find the density of a regular object, we have to find the : - Mass - Volume ( Length x height x width)

Length

Height

Width Volume of cuboid = Length x Height x Width

Example 1
Mass of cork = 100 g Volume of cork = 10 cm3 So, density of cork = ?

100 g / 10 cm3 = 10 g/cm3 Density of cork = 10 g/cm3

Exercise 1
A block of copper measuring 2 cm x 3 cm x 3 cm has a mass of 162 g. What is density ? Solution : Volume, (2 x 3 x 3) cm = 18 cm3

So, density of block of copper = mass / volume = 162 g /18 cm3 = 9 g/cm3

Exercise 2

The density of mercury is 13.6 g/cm3. Find the mass of 50 cm3 of it. Solution :

Mass = Density x Volume


= 13.6 g/cm3 x 50 cm3 = 680 g

Exercise 3

The density of air is 1.3 kg/m3. What is the volume of 6.5 kg of air ?

Volume = Mass / Density


= 6.5 kg / 1.3 kg/m3 = 5 m3

Please

complete the diagram 1 according to the value of density given as below


Material Glass Cork Lead Petrol Alcohol Chloroform Density (g/cm3) 2.6 0.25 7.4 0.75 0.8 2.9

(F) (E) (D) (C) (B) (A) Diagram 1

Answer :
A - B - C - D - E - F -

(F) (E) (D) (C) (B) (A) Diagram 1

Jawapan :

A - Lead B - Chloroform C - Glass D - Alcohol E - Petrol F - Cork

An object that sinks can be made to float by decreasing its density. This can be done by changing the shape of the object to increase its volume without changing its mass. Example :

a ball of plasticine sinks in water because it is denser than water. However, when it is shaped like a boat, it can float on water. This is because its volume has been increased and it has become less dense than water.
