OBJECTIVE/S:
At the end of the lesson, you should be able to:
1.Distinguish between the physical and chemical
properties of matter.
2.Use properties of matter to identify substances
and to separate them.
3.Describe various simple separation techniques
such as distillation, chromatography, etc.

Some physical properties of matter
Hardness - refers to ability of a material to resist scrathching.
Example:
Photosynthesis - is the process through which
plants transform solar energy to chemical energy
• Nonmetals are elements that lack or do not have the characteristics of metals.
example of nonmetals: Oxygen (O), Iodine (I), Chlorine (Cl)
• Properties of Nonmetal
have a dull appearance
brittle
poor conductors of heat and electricity
good insulators
have low densities
1.1.3 Metalloids
• Metalloids are elements which have the properties of both metals and
nonmetals.
Examples of metalloids: Boron (B), Arsenic (As)
