Transcript of 5th Grade-Ch. 11 Lesson 1 What are properties of matter
Ch. 11 Lesson 1
What are properties of
?
elements• basic building blocks of matter
• combine to form all other kinds of matter
elements• can’t be broken into smaller pieces
• more than 100 elements
• most are metals
physical properties of metals
• conduct heat/electricity
• shiny
• bendable
Each element has its own properties.
shiny bendable

Activity-What’s in Ned’s Head?• Some of you will be chosen to be “feelers” as we explore the contents
of “Ned’s head”. • It will be very important that you do not tell the class what is in the box. • Your task is to be the “eyes”, reporting to the “brain” (the class) what
you “see” (feel). • You may only tell the class properties, characteristics. or traits, things
that describe such as texture, size, hardness, etc., of the object inside the box.
• The duties of the class members during no discussion time are: 1. Write down all the clues you get from the feeler about the mystery object today.2. When you have as many clues as you can get, form a hypothesis and draw what you think the mystery object looks like.
• During class discussion time3. Show your picture and tell what you thought the mystery object was.4. Make adjustments to your hypothesis as the need arises during the discussion. 5. Help the class come to a consensus as to what the mystery object really was.
weight• measure of pull of gravity on object
• changes when pull of gravity changes
mass• amount of matter in object
• measured w/ balance in grams, milligrams, kilograms
volume•amount of space that an object takes up
Volume= L x W x H
• measured w/ graduated cylinder
volume
How can you measure the volume of an object with an irregular
shape, such as a rock?
• One way is to put the object in One way is to put the object in a graduated cylinder containing a graduated cylinder containing water and measure the change water and measure the change in the volume of the water.in the volume of the water.
•Answer is in mL not Answer is in mL not cmcm33
density• measure of amount of matter in given volume
•Density= Mass
Volume
densityIf each marble has the same mass,
which box would weigh more? Why?
The box that has more marbles has more mass per unit of volume.
Density= Mass/Volume
Object Mass Length Width Height Volume

buoyancy•when something floats-
density < (less than) 1
Pumice has a density less than water’s density.
Yen has a density less than water’s density.
Ironwood has a density greater than water’s density.

Activity- Dunkin for Density
Analysis and Results:1. What is the mass of an empty film
canister?
2. Did the mass of the canister change at all? Explain.
3. Did the volume of the canister change at all? Explain.
4. What caused each canister to stay at their level in the water?
5. Write 2-3 sentences on what you learned.
Time to review
more than 100
•How many elements are
there?
How do you calculate density?•Density= Mass
Volume
Most elements in the periodic table are __________.metals
mass•amount of matter in an object
less
•When something floats, it’s density is ______ than the liquid it is floating in.
weight•measure of the pull of gravity on
an object
balance•What tool is used to measure the mass of an object?
