examples of physical properties of matter some examples are color, shape, size and texture water vapor molecules move quickly past each other and spread out matter anything that has mass and takes up space; everything you see even air 3 states of water ice, water, water vapor; all have the same kind of matter, molecule and atom molecule 2 or more atoms joined together physical property matter changes from one state to another without becoming a new matter; different characteristics atoms smallest particle of matter liquid water molecules move past each other but stay close together; take the shape of the container it is in 3 states of matter solid, liquid, gas ice molecules vibrate and are placked close together; stay in a specific shape weight measure of the pull of gravity on an object; can chage if gravity's pull changes volume amount of space that matter takes up; all matter has this liter and milliliter used to measure volume in a beaker or graduated cylinder metric system a standard system of measurement based on multiples of 10; all scientists use this gram and kilogram used to measure mass with a balance luster how the surface of an object looks when light shines on it; shiny or not 5 physical properties of matter color, shape, texture, density and luster texture how the object feels density how much matter is in a given space, or volume chemical property a characteristic of matter that can be observed only when matter is changed into a new kind of matter chemical properties examples burn, rust, cook , tarnish; how matter reacts with air, heat and water
