This document contains questions about states of matter and changes between states. It asks the student to: 1. Create a block diagram showing states of matter and changes between them with arrows and labels. 2. Describe the relationship between matter and chemistry. 3. Identify which items on a list contain matter. 4. Label physical states and changes shown in diagrams with arrows. 5. Compare and give examples of physical and chemical properties. 6. Give physical and chemical properties of examples like an apple, matches, and nails. 7. Identify substances based on microscopic views. 8. Classify examples as elements, compounds, or mixtures.
