Physical Properties
Physical properties are characteristics of matter that can b
measured and observed.
Properties help identify a substance and help determine th
uses of a material.
Properties of liquids:
Viscosity is a measurement of resistance
to flowing.
Viscosity is a measure of the resistance of a fluid to flow.
In everyday terms (and for
fluids only), viscosity is
"thickness" or "internal
friction".
Thus, water is "thin", having a
lower viscosity, while honey is
"thick", having a higher
viscosity.
Put simply, the less viscous the fluid is,
the greater its ease of movement (fluidity).
The substance
above has lower
viscosity than the
substance below.
Surface tension is the tendency of a liquid to
form a skin at the surface.
Cohesion is the attraction between
particles of the same substance.
Cohesion is what causes surface
tension.
Adhesion is similar to cohesion, but it is the
attraction between particles of different
substances.
Properties of solids:
Malleable is the ability to be shaped.
Elasticity is the amount of "stretch"
an item has.
Brittleness is how easily something will break
when
being shaped.
Hardness is the resistance to
being scratched.
Tensile strength describes how well a solid resists breaking
under tension forces (pulling forces).
Conductivity is the ability to conduct
electricity.
Luster-the state or quality of
shining by reflecting light; glitter,
sparkle, sheen, or gloss, dull, flat.
Ductile-capable of being drawn out into
wire or threads capable of being
hammered out thin, as certain metals;
malleable.
Translucent
Allowing light, but not detailed
images, to pass through;
semitransparent.
Opaque
Not transparent or
translucent; impenetrable to
light; not allowing light to
pass through.
Physical properties of matter often vary
with three things:
temperature, pressure and state.
Chemical vs. Physical Properties
Chemical properties are properties of an element or
compound in chemical reactions. For example, the fact that
sodium reacts with water is a chemical property.
Physical properties are properties of an element or compound
that can be observed without a chemical reaction of the
substance. A substance's color and density are physical
properties.
Gluep Background info.....
Density is a measure of how closely the particles of a
substance are packed into a given space.
Density is found by measuring mass and volume and then
dividing the mass by the volume. The formula for density
is:
D = M/V
D stands for density, M stands for mass, and V stands for
volume.
What is the density of a rock that has a mass of 32.5 g and a
volume of 12.8 mL?
Use the 3-step method to solve this problem:
1) Write the formula.
D = M/V
2) Plug in the numbers and units.
3) Complete the calculation and
show the correct unit for density.
What is the density of a rock that has a mass of 32.5 g and a
volume of 12.8 mL?
How do you determine volume?
GLUEP LAB
Physical properties of matter are characteristics that can be measured and observed,
without changing the make- up of the substance.
Examples of measurable properties:
Examples of observable properties:
On the other hand, chemical properties describe the way a material will behave
chemically. Will it react slowly with oxygen, decompose in light, combine explosively
with sodium, etc.?
MATERIALS:
Triple-beam balance Food coloring
Graduated cylinder Borax
Two beakers White glue
Stick for stirring
PROCEDURE:
1. Find the mass of the small beaker (answer = ____________). 2. Add 3.7 g to that mass
(answer = ____________) and adjust the pointers on the balance to this new number. Carefully
add Borax to the beaker until it balances out again.
3. Add 50 ml of water to the Borax in the beaker. Stir to mix until all or most of the Borax is
dissolved.
4. In the larger beaker, measure 25 ml of glue.
5. Measure and add 25 ml of water to the glue and mix well.
6. Add 2 drops of food coloring to the glue mixture and stir.
7. Pour the Borax solution into the glue mixture and stir.
8. Drain the extra liquid down the sink drain. Be careful not to lose the new material you have
just made.
9. Knead the remaining material in your hands until it firms like putty.
10. Clean your beakers, then place the gluep in one. Observe.
Do not remove ANY materials from this classroom
without permission.
This includes the Gluep you made.

Conservation Speaking Contest
This year the speaking contest will be held on Tuesday January 21, 2014 at Pittsville High
School in Pittsville, WI. The contest starts at 6:00pm.
Students can pick a topic that deals with
conservation and deliver a speech.
Gift cards and trophies will be awarded to the top speeches. Top speeches will move on to
area level, then state.
Entry forms need to be mailed by Friday January 17, 2014.

Why is Graphite soft and Diamond hard
if both are pure carbon?
Carbon alone forms the familiar substances graphite and diamond. Both
graphite and diamond are made only of carbon atoms.
Graphite is very soft and slippery. Diamond is the hardest substance known to
man. If both are made only of carbon what gives them different properties?
The answer lies in the way the carbon atoms form bonds with each other.
Notice that graphite is
layered.
While there are strong
covalent bonds between
carbon atoms in each layer,
there are only weak forces
between layers.
This allows layers of carbon
to slide over each other in
graphite.
On the other hand, in diamond each
carbon atom is the same distance to
each of its neighboring carbon atoms.
In this rigid network atoms cannot
move.
This explains why diamonds are so
hard and have such a high melting
point.

Uses for Muscovite (mica)
Muscovite is a valuable mineral, but it is not known for its aesthetic beauty and will
never been seen as a gem.
Its first known use was in Old Russia as a glass. This glass was termed muscovy
glass. Muscovite was used in this purpose due to its transparent crystals and its
ability to cleave into thin sheets. Sheet muscovite is used as an insulating material in
electrical apparatuses due to its dielectric and heat resistant properties (Hurbut &
Klein Pg. 517).
It was also used in this fashion as furnace doors, but its use in this capacity is not as
common today because of modern technology alternatives.
Muscovite can be ground up and used in many products. The ground muscovite is
used in wallpaper to give it a shiny luster. It can also be used as a glitter and in
makeup in a similar fashion, as well as, a fireproofing agent, fillers, and a lubricant in
oil.
