What's the matter with MATTER?

Everything is made out of MATTER.  

MATTER can exist in three physical states: SOLID, LIQUID or GAS.

All MATTER has mass (or weight) and volume (occupies space).

MATTER can undergo a CHANGE OF STATE 

when the physical state changes but the matter or substance stays the same.

(Solid ice melts into liquid water; 

liquid water evaporates into gaseous water vapour;

 water vapour condenses into liquid water; 

and liquid water solidifies into solid ice.)

MATTER can also undergo a CHEMICAL REACTION

when the substance permanently changes into a different substance(s).

(Oxidation and Conbustion are examples of chemical reactions.)

MATERIALS are substances we use for making things.  

Two classifications of materials are: NATURAL or MAN-MADE.

We choose materials that have useful properties, such as:

STRONG and RESISTANT (steel, concrete)

FLEXIBLE (leather, paper)

ELASTIC (rubber, some plastics)

TRANSPARENT (glass, some plastics)

LIGHT and RESISTANT (aluminium)

FRAGILE (ceramics)
