Let’s review what
is matter all about
Matter
is anything that
occupy space and
has mass.
How many states of
matter do we have?
We already have
22 states or forms
of matter.
States of Matter
1.) solid

General Properties of Matter
1. MASS
Is the amount of matter in an
object. It is commonly
measured using a balance and
is usually expressed in grams
(g) or in kilograms (kg).

2.
Weigh
Istthe measure of the pull of
gravity on an object. It is
commonly measured using a
spring balance and is
expressed in newtons (N).

Volum
e
Is the amount of space occupied by an
object.
Density= mass
volume
General Properties of Matter
Take
note Density
The density of an object does not change
regardless of the amount of matter.
Hence, a gold coin has the same density
as a bar of gold.
Density
Objects that are denser than water sink in
water while objects that are less dense than
water float in water.
vegetable oil
water
In the graduated cylinder shown, honey has the
greatest density, so it sinks at the bottom of the
glassware. On the other hand, vegetable oil is
honey the least dense among the three liquids, so it
floats on top.
Example
A bar of gold has a mass of l000 grams and has
a volume of 25 cm3. What is its density?
Density = 40 g/cm3
Let’s practice!
What is the density of a
piece of wood that has a
mass of 27 grams and a
volume of 9 cm3?
Answer:
Mass = 27 grams
Volume = 9 cm3
Density = ?
Density = mass
volume
Density = 27 grams
9 cm3
Density = 3 g/cm3
Bible Verse:
Ephesians
4:7
“But to each one of us
grace was given
according to the
measure of Christ’s
gift.”
