Matter
Matter
A substance that has mass and occupies space is classified as matter.
Substances that have no mass and do not occupy space are classified as non-matter.
Unit of measurement of mass = kg or g
Unit of measurement of volume = ml or L
Matter exists in three main states:
- solid
- liquid
- gas
The properties of each state are as follows:
Solid
1. Fixed shape - will not change by itself
e.g. Plasticine is a solid. Its shape will not change unless we do something (like squeezing) to it.
Note: When we apply a force onto an object, we can change its shape (e.g. Plasticine or Blu-tack). When we say fixed shape, we mean that it does not change its shape by itself.
2. Fixed volume
e.g. If a rock has a volume of 34ml in beaker A, its volume when placed in beaker B (or anywhere else) will also be 34ml
3. Cannot be compressed
Since the volume is always the same, thus we can say that solids cannot be compressed.
Liquid
1. No fixed shape - changes according to type of container
Liquids will change their shape according to the container they are in. Square container = square shape. Triangular container = triangular shape
2. Fixed volume
e.g. If beaker A contains 12ml of water, the volume of water when it is poured into another beaker is still 12ml.
3. Cannot be compressed
Since the volume is always the same, thus we can say that liquids cannot be compressed.
Gas
1. No fixed shape - changes according to type of container
Gases are like liquids and will change their shape according to the container they are in. Square container = square shape. Triangular container = triangular shape
2. No fixed volume
e.g. If 10ml of gas is pumped into a 5ml container, the volume of the gas will be 5ml.
If the same 10ml is pumped into a 20ml container, the volume of the gas will be 20ml.
KEY CONCEPT: Gases compresses or expands in order to fill up the container that it is in.
3. Can be compressed and can expand
Please see the above point.
Good luck for tomorrow!
Sincerely,
Mr. Chan

Moulting
Dear All,
Upon request:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moulting
http://www.insectidentification.org/process-of-molting.asp
As moulting literally means to lose part of its body, the pupa moults (loses its outer protective covering) to become an adult.
Thank you!

Dear all
The Math SA1 will be held on 14 May (Friday). The scope has been issued to the pupils. Please check with them. The topics covered will be from Unit 1 to 6. Please also take note that P1 to P3 work will also be tested.
For parents who have attended the Principal's talk at the beginning of the year, you would have been informed by the Math HOD that there will be a slight change of the exam format in SA1 and SA2. Please take note of the new format below:
Section A: 15 MCQ X 2M = 30M
Section B: 20 open-ended x 2M = 40M
Section C: A total of 8 problem sums - 2 questions of 3M and 6 questions of 4M = 30 M
The rationale of the change of format is to bridge the gap in standard between P4 and P5 so that our pupils will not experience a great jump when they move to P5 next year.
I have finished teaching Unit4: Angles and the pupils have completed the Topical Test. The papers will be returned to them once they have done the corrections. The pupils will also be doing 1 practice paper this week. It will be returned to them next week once I have marked and gone through with them. Please sign both Topical Test and the pracitce paper when they bring back to show you next week.
Thank you.
