Welcome to Module 2: Matter Lesson 1: Atoms Lesson 2: Elements Lesson 3: Compounds Lesson 4: States of Matter Lesson 5: Phase Changes Lesson 6: Physical Changes Lesson 7: Mixtures and Solutions Lesson 8: Chemical Changes Lesson 9: Conservation of Matter

Lesson 1: Atoms with an ACTIVITY: Paper and Balloons Do you ever wonder what the world is made of? Atoms!!!! The smallest unit of matter and they can only been seen by electron microscopes.

What Is Matter? Matter makes up everything around you, and it is anything that has mass and takes up space (has volume). For example, a glass of water has mass and takes up space.

Atoms are made up of different parts which are called subatomic particles (subatomic means “smaller” than an atom).

Atoms are the smallest parts of matter, and an essential building block of the universe.

Lesson 2: Elements with a Homework Assignment

Scientists have discovered 118 elements which have been placed in a chart called the periodic table. Each box on the periodic table represents a different element.

Lesson 3: Compounds Atoms are the smallest units of matter, and each element has its own unique atom. When the atoms of two different elements chemically combine, a compound is formed.

A compound is a substance that is made up of two or more different elements. For example, table salt (NaCl) is made up of two elements: sodium (Na) and chlorine (Cl).

Lesson 4: States of Matter There are solids, liquids, and gases all around us, and they affect your life in many ways.

What are the three states of matter?

Lesson 5: Phase Changes Solids, liquids, and gases are three states of matter, but matter doesn’t always stay in the same state.

A Phase change is the transition or movement from one state to another, such as from a solid to a liquid. For example: Ice to water

Lesson 6: Physical Changes Physical changes occur around you all the time. An example of a physical change include phase changes and cutting a piece of fruit into smaller pieces.

Lesson 7: Mixtures and Solutions

Mixtures are made up of more than one type of matter but they are not chemically bonded. There are two types of mixtures, homogeneous and heterogeneous.

Lesson 8: Chemical Changes Physical changes do not change the identity of a substance, such as ice melting. However, when you fry an egg, the egg's identity will change.

Chemical changes create a new substance, whereas a physical change does not change the identity of the substance.

Lesson 9: Conservation of Matter With Homework Assignment Remember that matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. There are three states of matter: solid, liquid, and gas. That state changes from one form to another through heat energy, and that matter goes through either a physical or chemical change.

The law of conservation of mass states that matter does not disappear but will transform from one form to another.
