15. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
● Are those that can be observed and
measured without changing the
composition of a substance
Substance - type of matter that has the same properties and the
same composition throughout a sample
16. PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
Physical Change
Changes in physical properties of a substance
Ex. melting a solid
boiling liquid
hammering a copper wire into a flat shape grinding
sugar into fine powder
19. 1. MELTING POINT
The temperature at which a solid begins to melt
Substance Melting Point
Iron 1, 535°C
Copper 1,083°C
Silver 960°C
Lead 327°C
Butter 32°C
Ice 0°C
21. 3. BOILING POINT
- Temperature at which the liquid boils
Substance Boiling Point
Mercury 357°C
Water 100°C
Ethyl 78°C
Carbon tetrachloride 76.8°C
Chlorine 34.6°C
22. 4. TEMPERATURE
Property of matter that
determines whether there
can be heat energy
transfer from one object to
another
Celsius Temperature Scale
23. SAMPLE 1. Convert 167°F to Celsius.
• Step #1: Subtract 32 from the temperature.
• 167 – 32 = 135
•
Step #2: Then multiply by 5.
• 135 x 5 =675
•
Step #3: Then divide by 9.
• 675 ÷ 9 = 75
• Therefore, 167°F = 75°C
24. SAMPLE 2: Convert 100 °C to F.
• Step #1: Multiply the temperature by 9.
• 100 x 9 = 900
•
Step #2: Then divide by 5.
• 900 ÷ 5 = 180
•
Step #3: Then add by 32.
• 180 + 32 = 212
• Therefore, 100°C = 212°F
25. SAMPLE 3
Convert 10 K to Celsius
• Step #1: Add the temperature by 273.
• 10 + 273 = 283
•
Therefore, 10 K = 283°C
26. 5. DENSITY
ratio of the mass of a
sample to its volume
Density = mass /
volume
d = m / V
28. 6. VOLATILITY
is a material quality
which describes how
readily a substance
vaporizes
29. 7. METALLIC PROPERTIES
ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY
Ability to conduct
electricity
MAGNETIC PROPERTY
Ability to attract
materials made of
iron and steel
32. CHEMICAL PROPERTIES
Are properties that
can only be
identified when
one substance
reacts with another
substance
Ex. rusting of iron
Iron will react faster with Oxygen when iron is place in
a damp place than placed in a dry place.
36. CHEMICAL PROPERTIES CHARACTERISTICS
Ability to give off light and heat
● When we observe fireworks, light
and heat are given off and
sounds are usually produced
● Burning of fuel
(releases heat)
37. CHEMICAL PROPERTIES CHARACTERISTICS
Ability to form precipitate
● Precipitate is formed
when two liquids react
● Combination of vinegar and milk wherein yellowish rubbery lumps form
38. CHEMICAL PROPERTIES CHARACTERISTICS
Ability to change in temperature or energy
● Is the production (exothermic) or loss (endothermic)of heat.
● When dynamite explodes,
mechanical energy is produced,
and when the battery of a car
produces electricity, electrical
energy is produced
