Objective 4.04: Describe the suitability of materials for use in technological
design:
Electrical conductivity
Density
Magnetism
Solubility
Malleability
Physical Property
Property—any factor that can be used identify and
describe matter
Helps for deciding the uses of various materials for
technology
Physical property—observable and measureable
characteristic without changing the identity of the
substance
Ex Mass, volume, color, hardness, and phase
Every substance has its own unique properties
Chemical Property
Chemical property—how the matter will change under
certain conditions, this characteristic is unique to
substances
Ability to burn, rust, react to light, or react with acids
are chemical properties of matter

Review from Yesterday
Zigzag line divides the table into metalloids, metals,
and nonmetals
Malleable and Ductile
Malleable—able to be hammered and shaped and
rolled into thin sheets like foil
Ductile—able to be stretched or drawn into wires
without breaking

Magnetism
Magnetism—attraction(moving towards) or repulsion
(moving away) between like or unlike poles—iron,
cobalt, and nickel are strong magnets

Electricity and Heat
Conductor—a material or substance electricity or heat
easily flows through
Insulators—a material that electricity or heat doesn’t
easily flow through—rubber, wood, plastic, glass
Semiconductor—a material that has conductive
properties that are variable—these can be useful for
carrying electricity under certain conditions
Density
Density—density=mass/volume certain substances

have a specific density
Solubility
Solubility—measure of how much of a substance can
dissolve in a certain amount of another substance
Carbon dioxide will dissolve more in water than oxygen,

that’s why it is used in sodas

Write the heading Discussion Questions
Answer discussion questions 1-4, which can be located
in your notes….
If you don’t have your notes then find the Chemistry
Unit Notes located on my website under the chemistry
tab
Identify substances based on characteristic
physical properties:
Density
Boiling/Melting points
Solubility
Chemical reactivity
Specific heat
Temperature
Temperature is a physical property
Temperature that a substance melts or boils is specific
for the that substance
Temperature Review
Melting Point
Boiling Point
Melting point—the
Boiling point—the
temperature at which a solid
changes into a liquid
temperature at which a liquid
changes into a gas
i.e water 0C
i.e. water 100C
Recall the melting point for

Specific Heat
Specific heat—the amount of heat needed to raise
1 gram (1 g) of a substance by 1 degree Celsius
The unit of specific heat is joules per gram per degree
Celsius (J/g C)
Used to compare how different substances absorb heat
Specific Heat
• Which of the
following has the
lowest specific
heat?
• Which of the
following has the
highest specific
heat?
