All physical objects are composed of matter, in the forms of atoms, which are in turn composed of ]]> 2016-09-12 14:12:46 UTC https://padlet.com/isabellarana1/ikva2foptod3/wish/123134188 4 Types of matter: isabellarana1 https://padlet.com/isabellarana1/ikva2foptod3/wish/123136717 - Solids: particles are packed tightly together so they are unable to move. Particles of a solid have very low kinetic energy.
- Liquids: the particles of a liquid have more kinetic energy than those of a solid. The liquid particles are not held in a regular arrangement, but are still very close to each other so liquids have a definite volume.
- Gases: gas particles have a great deal  of space between them and have high kinetic energy. If unconfined, the particles of a gas will spread out indefinitely; if confined, the gas will expand to fill its container. 
- Plasma: plasma is not a common state of matter here on Earth, but may be the most common in the universe. Plasma consists of highly charged particles with extremely high kinetic energy

It may require extreme temperatures or pressure, but it can be done. To create a solid, you might have to decrease the temperature by a huge amount or add pressure.]]> 2016-09-12 14:40:44 UTC https://padlet.com/isabellarana1/ikva2foptod3/wish/123150011 What's the difference between a chemical and a physical property? isabellarana1 https://padlet.com/isabellarana1/ikva2foptod3/wish/123455322 Physical properties are those that can be observed without changing the identity of the substance. The general properties of matter such as color, hardness, density, are all examples of physical properties. Properties that describe how a substance changes into a completely different ]]> 2016-09-13 14:08:26 UTC https://padlet.com/isabellarana1/ikva2foptod3/wish/123455322 What's the difference between a homogenous and heterogeneous mixture?  isabellarana1 https://padlet.com/isabellarana1/ikva2foptod3/wish/123461268 A homogeneous mixture is a type of mixture in which the composition is uniform and every part of the solution has the same properties. A heterogeneous mixture is when the components can be seen, as there are 2 or more phases present. One example of a mixture is air.

Dry air is made up of mostly nitrogen and oxygen. The other 1% is made up of argon, carbon dioxide and other trace gases. Water vapor is also present in the atmosphere in varying amounts, by up to 2%.

What is the state of matter?
Gas

Chemical and Physical properties?
It has weight, can be compressed and takes up space. The fact that it can be compressed makes it quite different from solids and liquids, which cannot be compressed.

Is there anything unique about it?
