Their place in the universe . By Jordan . Ilori. . DARK MATTER. Dark matter is a type of matter hypothesized in astronomy and cosmology to account for a large part of the mass that appears to be missing from the universe. Dark matter cannot be seen directly with telescopes; evidently it neither emits nor absorbs light or other electromagnetic radiation at any significant level. Instead, the existence and properties of dark matter are inferred from its gravitational effects on visible matter, radiation, and the large-scale structure of the universe. According to the Planck mission team, and based on the standard model of cosmology, the total mass–energy of the known universe contains 4.9% ordinary matter, 26.8% dark matter and 68.3% dark energy. Thus, dark matter is estimated to constitute 84.5% of the total matter in the universe and 26.8% of the total content of the universe.. Matter. Anything that has a mass and takes up a volume. Air, water, you, me, the desk, the door, the floor, the sky, the earth.. Hypothesis . vs. theory . vs. law. Hypothesis. A statement that is yet to be tested. Chapter 2. Bamboo has properties that make it a good choice for use in chopsticks. It has no noticeable odor or taste. It is hard, yet easy to split, and it is heat resistant. You will learn how properties can be used to classify and identify matter.. TEK 5.5 A – Students will classify matter based on physical properties…. Matter. Matter. is any living or non-living thing in the universe. All objects, things, plants, people, animals, etc are made up of matter. Classifying Matter by Composition. Homogeneous. – . matter with a uniform composition. Heterogeneous. - . matter without a uniform composition. Substance. - A pure type of matter that does not vary from sample to sample. Includes . 1.1 Matter has mass and volume. Metric system base units. Property. Name. Symbol. Length. Meter. m. Volume. Liter. L. Mass. Gram, kilogram. g, kg. Temperature. Kelvin. K. What is Matter???. Matter is anything has mass and takes up space.. Element – a substance that is made up of one type of atom. Evaporation – is a change of state from a liquid to a gas. Solid – has a definite volume and shape. Define the following the words:. Physical Property – can be measured without changing the identity of a . 2-1 Energy . 2-2 Temperature . 2-3 Matter . 2-4 Elements and Compounds . 2-5 Mixtures . 2-1 Energy. Name 3 basic forms of nrg. State the law of conservation of nrg. Need for nrg. Heat water for cooking, bathing, etc.. Describing Matter. Extensive Properties: depend on amount of matter in a sample. Mass: amount of matter. Volume: space occupied. Intensive Properties: depend on type of matter, not amount. Density: mass/volume. Matter and Energy What is matter? Matter and Energy What is matter? It's what everything that occupies space and has mass is made of And everything like that is made out of chemical elements There are 92 naturally occurring chemical elements, and a number of synthetic ones Honors Chemistry Matter and Energy MATTER is anything that has mass and volume. Do you know ALL the states of matter? Kinetic Molecular Theory of Matter Assumptions: All matter consists of particles, such as, atoms, molecules, formula units. Status is ubiquitous in modern life, yet our understanding of its role as a driver of inequality is limited.  In Status, sociologist and social psychologist Cecilia Ridgeway examines how this ancient and universal form of inequality influences today’s ostensibly meritocratic institutions and why it matters. Ridgeway illuminates the complex ways in which status affects human interactions as we work together towards common goals, such as in classroom discussions, family decisions, or workplace deliberations. Ridgeway’s research on status has important implications for our understanding of social inequality. Distinct from power or wealth, status is prized because it provides affirmation from others and affords access to valuable resources. Ridgeway demonstrates how the conferral of status inevitably contributes to differing life outcomes for individuals, with impacts on pay, wealth creation, and health and wellbeing. Status beliefs are widely held views about who is better in society than others in terms of esteem, wealth, or competence. These beliefs confer advantages which can exacerbate social inequality. Ridgeway notes that status advantages based on race, gender, and class—such as the belief that white men are more competent than others—are the most likely to increase inequality by facilitating greater social and economic opportunities. Ridgeway argues that status beliefs greatly enhance higher status groups’ ability to maintain their advantages in resources and access to positions of power and make lower status groups less likely to challenge the status quo. Many lower status people will accept their lower status when given a baseline level of dignity and respect—being seen, for example, as poor but hardworking. She also shows that people remain willfully blind to status beliefs and their effects because recognizing them can lead to emotional discomfort. Acknowledging the insidious role of status in our lives would require many higher-status individuals to accept that they may not have succeeded based on their own merit many lower-status individuals would have to acknowledge that they may have been discriminated against. Ridgeway suggests that inequality need not be an inevitable consequence of our status beliefs. She shows how status beliefs can be subverted—as when we reject the idea that all racial and gender traits are fixed at birth, thus refuting the idea that women and people of color are less competent than their male and white counterparts. This important new book demonstrates the pervasive influence of  status on social inequality and suggests ways to ensure that it has a less detrimental impact on our lives.
