2. Review
What is Matter?
It is anything that occupies space
and has mass.
What makes up a matter?
Matter is made up of atoms.
Very good, since you have understood well the
previous topic, let us now proceed to a new
lesson.
3. Motivation
Are you familiar with the famous mobile
game 4 pictures, 1 Word?
Do you want to play it now?
Alright, let’s play
First pictures.
Yes Ma’am.
Gas
Second pictures.

Very good. You have guessed all the words
from the pictures shown.
B. PRESENTATION OF THE LESSON
1. Pre – Activity
I will divide you into five groups. Each
1,2,3,4,5…
group must select a leader, secretary
and two representatives. Count one
to five, starts here (pointing to the
right side).
Selected leader stand up. And
secretary, get one fourth sheet of
paper then write the list of your
members.
Each leader will pick only one
envelope. And each envelope
contains different task, activity sheets
and materials needed. Further Yes Ma’am
instructions are provided in the task
sheet.
You are given 10 minutes to answer
the activity. And be guided with
rubrics presented. Afterwards the
representatives of every group will
present their work in the class.
Now, go to your respective groups
then, make a little circle with your
group.

2. How the arrangements of molecules
in a solid state differ from the liquid

3. What are the changes taking place as
you heat up a matter?
4. Abstraction
Water is the common substance that occurs
at ordinary temperatures in all three states of
matter, that is, as a solid, a liquid, and a gas.
As a solid, or ice, it is found as glaciers and
ice caps, on water surfaces in winter, as
snow, hail, and frost, and as clouds formed
of ice crystals. It occurs in the liquid state as
rain clouds formed of water droplets, and on
vegetation as dew. As gas, or water vapor, it
occurs as fog, steam, and clouds.
Solids are simply hard substances, and they
are hard because of how their molecules are
packed together. Examples include rock,
chalk, and sugar. They are all solids at room
temperature. They can come in all sizes,
shapes and forms.
The particles in liquids are not as closely
bonded, arranged and fixed in place as in
solids. The particles in liquid can flow freely
and can mix with particles from other liquids.
Liquids have their atoms close together, so
they are not very easy to compress.
The particles that make up a gas, however,
are completely separated from one another.
Empty space accounts for more than 99
percent of the total volume of air, for
example. Because gas particles are
separated, the attractive forces between
them are extremely small and are insufficient
to hold gases in a definite shape or volume.
Gases expand freely to fill their containers.
There are six distinct changes of phase
which happens to different substances at
different temperatures. The six changes are:
Freezing: the substance changes from a
liquid to a solid.
Melting: the substance changes back from
the solid to the liquid.
Condensation: the substance changes from
a gas to a liquid.
Vaporization: the substance changes from a
liquid to a gas.
Sublimation: the substance changes directly
from a solid to a gas without going through
the liquid phase.
Deposition: the substance changes directly
from a gas to a solid without going through
the liquid phase.
