Grade 11
1st Quarter
Topic: Matter and Its Properties
Content Standard: the learners should demonstrate an understanding of the properties

of matter and its various state.
Performance Standard: The students should be able to recognize the different
substances that made up of Matter.
MELCs: Identify the properties of Matter

MELCs code: STEM_GC11MP-Ia-b-1
Learning Objectives:
At the end of the topic, 80% of the Grade 11 students will be able to:
1. Distinguish the different states of matter.
2. Relate the properties of matter to its specific state.
3. Explain how the properties of liquids and gases characterizes fluids
TOPIC OUTLINE:
I. Three States of Matter
a.Solid – relatively rigid, definite volume and shape. In solid, the atoms and molecules are
attached to each other.
b.Liquids – has definite volume but able to change shape by flowing. In a liquid, the atoms
and molecules are loosely bonded.
c.Gases – no fixed shape, no fixed volume, very compressible
II. The Properties of Matter
a. Physical Properties
 Extensive properties
 Intensive properties
b. Chemical Properties
III. Liquids and Gases as Fluids

Topic: Matter and Its Properties
I. Three States of Matter

The three states of matter are the distinct physical forms that matter can take. These are solid,
liquid, and gas.
a. Solid
Solid matter is composed of tightly packed particles. The forces between the particles
are strong enough that the particles cannot move freely; they can only vibrate. As a result, a
solid has a stable, definite shape and a definite volume. Solids can only change shape under
force, as when broken or cut.
b. Liquid
Liquid matter is made of more loosely packed particles. A liquid is a fluid that conforms
to the shape of its container but that retains a nearly constant volume independent of pressure.
Liquids have the following characteristics: 1) No definite shape (takes the shape of its
container); 2) Has definite volume; 3) Particles are free to move over each other, but are still
attracted to each other.
c. Gas
Gas molecules have either very weak bonds or no bonds at all, so they can move freely
and quickly. Because of this, not only will a gas conform to the shape of its container, it will also
expand to completely fill the container. Gases have the following characteristics: 1) No definite
shape (takes the shape of its container); 2) No definite volume; 3) Particles move in random
motion with little or no attraction to each other; and 4) Highly compressible.
II. The Properties of Matter

Properties are characteristics that enable us to distinguish one kind of matter from
another. The properties of matter include any traits that can be measured, such as an object’s
density, color, mass, volume, length, malleability, melting point, hardness,
odor,temperature,and, and more.
There two properties of matter which all substance are distinguished by, they ‘’physical
properties’’ and ‘’chemical properties’’.
a. Physical Properties: include size, shape, color, texture, etc. The melting point
and freezing point are also physical properties. Every substance has some physical properties
that are different from those of other substances. Physical properties can be changed,
sometimes permanently and sometimes irreversibly. For example, when ice melts the water can
then be refrozen but when the wood is burned many of its atoms leave as gas (carbon dioxide
and water vapour), and the match cannot be put back together to its original state.

Physical properties can extensive or intensive properties. Extensive properties vary
with the amount of the substance and include mass, weight, and volume. Intensive properties,
in contrast, do not depend on the amount of substance; they include color, melting point, boiling
point, electrical conductivity, and physical state at a given temperature.
Examples of Physical Properties:
 Odor
 Color
 Density
 Luster
 Malleability
 Ductility
 Hardness
 Melting/Freezing point
 Boiling point
 Conductivity
b. Chemical Properties: characteristics that have to do with the chemical makeup of a

substance, or how it reacts with other substances. This absolutely describe how matter changes
into a completely new, different substance. Flammability and reactivity are examples of
chemical properties.
Examples of Chemical Properties:
 Reactivity
 Ionization
 Combustibility
 Flammability

III. Liquids and Gases as Fluids
At a molecular level, liquids have some properties of gases and some of solids. First,
liquids share the ability to flow with gases. Both liquid and gas phases are fluid, meaning that
the intermolecular forces allow the molecules to move around.
