Chemistry: The Study of Matter

Friday we kicked off our study about Chemistry and today we started to dig into some of the content. We discussed how everything is made of matter and all matter has both volume and mass. (4th period stopped here and will continue tomorrow.) Mass and weight, although often used interchangeably, are different. We finished up with a short demonstration about how greater mass means an object has more inertia.

Homework was assigned for tomorrow. Students should finish the inside section of today's handout. They may skip numbers 7 and 9. (They should have already answered 7 on the front and we did not discuss how to do number 9.) 4th period will be doing this assignment on Tuesday night, as we did not get to finish the material.
