Physical and Chemical Properties of Matter

Introduction
Everything around us has physical and chemical properties. But what are physical and chemical properties, and how can you tell the difference? Everything around us also changes because of physical and chemical means. As a resident chemist you will join a group of chemists in classifying some of these changes and complete an investigative report.

Most science research is done by a group working together as part of a team. __**Individual's success depends on the group.**__ You are one of the chemists working in a group of three. Your job is to work together to determine the difference between chemical and physical properties and changes in matter.

You will go through the steps together. The steps are done as a group, however, many of the forms are completed individually. As a group, you will hand in one Investigative Report of finished forms to complete your group's scientific investigation.
