Lesson
1 Changes in Matter
Hello! Today we are going to learn more about matter. Matter is everywhere.
It is anything that has mass and takes up space. Everything that is made up of
matter is constantly experiencing both chemical and physical changes.
In this module, you will learn the different changes in materials with the
presence or lack of oxygen. Oxygen is a part of the air and water that surrounds us.
It can cause changes on different materials and food inside our body.
What’s In
You have learned from the previous module the properties of matter. You
have also classified them as useful and harmful. Let’s see how much you have
learned from your previous lesson.
Inside the box is a list of different materials. Classify each material as useful
or harmful. Use the table below.

When you cut a piece of paper, it experiences physical change. If you are
going to cook rice, it experiences chemical change.
Put ✓ on the space provided for under the picture if it shows chemical change and X
if does not.

Notes to the Teacher
Remind the learners to read the instructions carefully and follow
the procedures in performing the activities. Always ask for the
assistance of their parents or guardians.
What’s New
This time, you will do some investigation on the changes that happen in
materials in the presence or lack of oxygen. Remember the standards in doing the
activity. Don’t forget to ask for the assistance of your parent or guardian.
Good luck!

Answer the following Questions:
Materials What did you do? What happened to it? Is it still the same?
cloth
paper
stick
What properties are affected when matter undergoes a change with the
absence of oxygen?
_____________________________________________________________________
7
What’s It
Oxygen is a part of the air that surrounds us. It can cause changes on
different materials. Some fruits, root crops and vegetables have enzymes which when
combined with water gives it a brown color, a sign of food spoilage. When these fruits
are cut, oxygen is introduced into their cells and enzymes rapidly oxidize their tissue
and turn it into brown.
What’s More
You have noticed, that when you place a pile of garbage in your compost pit
it decays after several days. This is due to oxygen that reacts with the materials. A
foul odor is emitted by the decaying garbage. This is a methane gas produced due to
the breakdown of the chemical composition that forms new substance different from
the original material. It contributes to severe health problems and environmental
hazard that leads to global warming.
[Link] happened to the pile of garbage after some time in the compost pit?

In your own little ways, how can you contribute to lessen the production of
garbage? You may ask your parents or your guardian about this. Then make a list
of it on the chart below.
Did you enjoy the activities? I hope you learned a lot from it. Let’s try these
exercises to test yourself.
B. Match the original material with its product after the chemical change. Write the
letter of the correct answer on the space provided before each number.
Remember:
9
In a chemical change, a new and different materials are formed. The new
materials formed have properties different from the original materials. The new
material formed cannot be brought back to its original form. Combustion and
oxidation are among the effects of the presence of oxygen. Oxygen causes changes
on different materials. Combustion occurs when oxygen combines rapidly with
another substance, producing heat and light. Oxidation happens when a material
combines with oxygen chemically. Physical change happens when a material changes
under the condition of lack of oxygen.
What I Can Do
A. Put ✓ on the space provided if the materials undergo change with the presence
of oxygen and X if it undergoes a change due to lack of oxygen.

Lesson
Changes in Matter
2 due to application of heat
Oxygen produces various effects on objects that were even simply exposed
to it. Aside from oxygen, heat is another thing that produces changes to an object. It
may change the appearance or the properties of an object.
In this module, you will learn about the changes in matter through
application of heat. Physical change is one of the changes that matter undergoes. It
is a change in size, shape or state without changing their composition.
What’s In
Hi guys! You have learned from the previous module that a chemical change
happens when a new substance is formed. The product can never turn back to its
original form. The presence of oxygen affects change in matter. Let’s see how much
you have learned from your previous lesson.
Draw a before the appropriate number if the situation shows chemical
change.
When you were still in your lower grades you discussed about the different
phases of matter. Yes, you are surrounded by it. From the air that you breathe to
keep you alive, to the milk you drink, and to the clothes you wear. Did you know that
phases of matter are affected by the application of heat?
Water for instance may change to various phase with the application of heat
and this is a physical change. It changes its phases without changing its
composition.

What is It
When heat is applied to matter, matter may change its state or phase.
Example of phase changes include melting, solidification, condensation, evaporation,
and sublimation.
To those who have an internet connection you may watch this link:
[Link]
Solidification occurs when a liquid becomes solid with the absence of heat

What’s More
After a week of busy schedule, your family gathered a huge pile of used clothes
waiting for laundry. Your mother asked you to help wash your clothes. After a while,
you were done washing your clothes. You hang it outside under the heat of the sun
and noticed that after an hour your clothes were already dry.
2. How does the heat of the sun help in drying the clothes?

B. Write an example of physical and chemical change through the
application of heat using a graphic organizer.
Phase or state changes requires either the addition of heat energy (melting,
evaporation and sublimation) or subtraction of heat energy (condensation and
solidification.).
Heat does not only produce physical change in a material, sometimes heating a
material causes it to undergo chemical changes. The chemical changes caused by
heat are irreversible
