Bell Ringer: What is chemistry?

    • Matter is the "stuff" that makes up our world. Anything that has mass and takes up space is matter

      • Includes solids, such as wood or rocks

      • Includes liquids, such as water or hot lava

      • Includes gases, such as air or water vapor

    • Chemistry is the study of matter and its changes

    • We call the amount of matter in an object is mass
