A. Chapter 5 States of Matter

Show in outline how the particle theory of matter can be used to explain the properties of
solids, liquids and gases, including changes of state

Solid
Keep the same volume
Take the same amount of
space
Keep the same shape
The particle are arranged in
fix pattern because the
attractive force between
the particle is really strong
State of matter
Liquids
Keep the same volume
Take the same amount of
space
Take the shape of the
container
The particle can move past
one another because the
attractive force between
particle is enough to make
them stay together
Gases
Can change the volume
Can change the amount of
shape
Take the shape of closed
container
The particle do not touch
each other because the
attractive force between
the particle is weak

B. Chapter 6 Material Properties

1. Distinguish between metals and non-metals
Metal Some metals are magnetic
Most are solid in room Non-Metal
temperature Many are gases at room
They are shinny temperature
They do not shatter They are dull
They conduct heat energy well They are brittle
They conduct electricity They do not conduct heat energy
They are melleable well
They are ductile Most do not conduct electricity
They make a ringiing sound when Solid and Liquid non-metal have
hit low melting points and boiling
Most of metal have high boiling points
and melting point Do not reflect light very well
 2. Describe everyday materials and their physical properties

Plastic
Some plastic are flexible, Ceramics
lightweight, and easiy shaped Withstand high temperature
Plastic do not react with the food Hard, brittle, very strong
Plastic takes a very long time to
break down Glass
Transparent or transculent
Fibres Hard but very brittle
Tinny threads Waterproof and do not react with
Strong and bendy food
Made from natural or synthetic

C. Chapter 7 Material Changes

1. Use a pH scale
Acid : pH 0 6,9
Neutral : pH 7
Alkaline : pH 7,1 14
2. Understand neutralisation and some of its applications
Neutralisation process occur when you mix acid and alkaline together. They will
produce salt and water which are neutral.
The apllication of neutralisation process in daily life:
1. Acid in our stomach and alkaline solution from indigestion medicine
2. Acid from bacteria in our mouth and alkaline from toothpaste
3. Use indicators to distinguish acid and alkaline solutions
Indicator is any substance that gives visible sign to show how acidic or alkaline a
substane is.
Litmus paper is the example of indicator. It will turn red when it is put in acid
and turn blue when it is put in alkaline.
The good indicator is the one that can distinguish acid, neutral and alkaline
The example of natural indicator are red cabbage, turmeric, flower petals etc.
