FOCUS: Classification of substances by their physical and chemical properties will be explored. Energy changes relative to changes in states of matter will be investigated. Students will demonstrate how substances are chemically combined.

WEEKLY OBJECTIVE: Compare metals, nonmetals, and metalloids using physical properties such as luster, conductivity or malleability. Calculate density to identify an unknown substance. Know that an element is a pure substance represented by chemical symbols. Differentiate between elements and compounds on the most basic level. Identify the formation of a new substance by using the evidence of a possible chemical change such as production of a gas, change in temperature, production of a precipitate, or color change.

KEY VOCABULARY: • Matter and Energy ● Elements and Atoms ● Compounds ● Density ● Physical and Chemical Property and Changes ● Periodic Table ● States and Phases

GUIDING QUESTIONS: 1. How do substances change from state to state? 2. What are the states of matter? 3. How do the states of matter differ from one another? 4. What are examples of physical properties of matter? 5. How are physical properties different from chemical properties?
