Lesson 9 - Chemical Properties and Changes

Introduction

A chemical property describes the ability of a substance to undergo a chemical change. To be able to identify a chemical property, we have to observe a chemical change. 
A chemical change always produces one or more types of matter that are different from the original matter. For example, the formation of rust is a chemical change because rust is a different kind of matter than the iron and oxygen present before the rust formed.

In your Science Journal:

    1. Write down today’s Lesson Title at the top of your next Journal page.
    2. Write today’s learning objective on the first line.
    3. Explore the Module 7 - Lesson 9 presentation below. Today, we’ll learn about chemical properties and changes. We can only identify chemical properties by observing a chemical change. Chemical changes result in new substances being created. We’ll be exploring a Google Slides presentation. It is a presentation that will help introduce you to chemical properties and chemical changes in matter.
    4. Write down the important terms and their definitions and important diagrams (yellow boxes) in your Science Journal.
