Matter can be found all over the Universe. Though on the earth, we can only find few phases of matter.]]> 2017-03-22 05:10:43 UTC https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161709971 mlguttierres1004 https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161710616 The four phases of matter are solid, liquid, gas, and plasma. These are all determined on how much energy it contains. Solid has the least energy. It has a definite shape and volume. Liquid has more than solid, but less than gas. It has a definite volume and indefinite shape. Gas has an indefinite shape and volume, with more energy than liquids. Plasma is much like gas, except it contains positivley and negatively charged particles.]]> 2017-03-22 05:22:52 UTC https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161710616 mlguttierres1004 https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161710976 There is actually another phase of matter called "Bose Einstein Condensate."  It is a dilute gas of bosons that are at temperatures close to absolute zero. An example of BEC, is a super liquid.  Like cold liquid helium]]> 2017-03-22 05:28:39 UTC https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161710976 mlguttierres1004 https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161711370 Cold Liquid Helium
Caption: Cold Liquid Helium is very cold. It boils at 4.2 Kelvins or -452.11 F]]> 2017-03-22 05:34:04 UTC https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161711370 mlguttierres1004 https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161711581 Solids are particles that are tightly packed,  and vibrate. Solids have both a definite shape and volume. An example of a solid is:
Metal.]]> 2017-03-22 05:37:31 UTC https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161711581 mlguttierres1004 https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161712094 Liquids are similar to solids, but are spread far enough that each particle can slide over each other. Liquids have an indefinite shape and definite volume. An example of a liquid is:
Water]]> 2017-03-22 05:45:29 UTC https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161712094 mlguttierres1004 https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161712219 Gas particles are very spread apart and move freely. Gases have both an indefinite shape and volume. An example of a gas is: oxygen]]> 2017-03-22 05:47:47 UTC https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161712219 mlguttierres1004 https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161712502 Plasma an ionized gas, have an indefinite shape and volume, like gases. Plasma is known as the most common state of matter in the Universe. An example of plasma is: lightning]]> 2017-03-22 05:52:32 UTC https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161712502 mlguttierres1004 https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161712699 2017-03-22 05:55:15 UTC https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161712699 mlguttierres1004 https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161712731 Matter is important to know about because it classifies things. It makes life easier, since learning about it gives you a good understanding on life. We can use matter to classify an object, or something we see. Without knowing what matter is, how exactly will we classify things? 
Matter makes up everything around you, including you yourself.]]> 2017-03-22 05:55:45 UTC https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161712731 mlguttierres1004 https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161843855 Water is useful for many things like powering hydroelectric power. Water is vital if a living being wants to survive. ]]> 2017-03-22 14:56:16 UTC https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161843855 mlguttierres1004 https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161844019 Lightning is a very good conductor of electricity. It is also useful for fertilizing plants. Lightning is a negatively charged and the ground is postively charged. So when both meet, it creates a strong electrical current.]]> 2017-03-22 14:56:37 UTC https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161844019 mlguttierres1004 https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161847053 Metal is hard, malleable, shiny, and dull able. It is a good conductor of electricity. The atoms of metal are strongly bonded together.]]> 2017-03-22 15:04:02 UTC https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161847053 mlguttierres1004 https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161848267 Oxygen is used by all living things breathing process. It is also used for medicine. And, is used in industry to manufacture steel. It is also an element of the modern Periodic Table.]]> 2017-03-22 15:07:09 UTC https://padlet.com/mlguttierres1004/9yva86l9jn70/wish/161848267
