Directions: 1. Read the following substances commonly found in your homes, know its uses and its composition by the use of periodic table of elements and a calculator. 1. Water (H,O) is the most essential commodity for human consumption. Living things on earth could not survive without water. (Atomic masses: H=1.01g; O=16.00g from the Periodic Table) 2. An eggshell is the hard, outer covering of an egg. It consists mostly of calcium carbonate (CaCO3), which is a common fom of calcium. (Atomic masses: Ca=40.08g; C=12.01; 0=16.00g from the Periodic Table) Phosphoric acid (HSPO4) is a compound used in detergents, fertilizers, toothpastes and flavoring in carbonated beverages. (Atomic masses: H=1.01g; P3D 30.97g; O=16.00g from the Periodic Table) 3. 2. Fill-In the table below. Then, calculate the percentage composition of each element in the compounds.

States of Matter
The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).
Chemical Reactions and Equations
When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.
![Directions:
1. Read the following substances commonly found in your homes, know its uses and its composition
by the use of periodic table of elements and a calculator.
1.
Water (H2O) is the most essential commodity for human consumption. Living things on earth
could not survive without water. (Atomic masses: H=1.01g; O=16.00g from the Periodic Table)
2.
An eggshell is the hard, outer covering of an egg. It consists mostly of calcium carbonate
(CaCO3), which is a common form of calcium. (Atomic masses: Ca=40.08g; C=12.01; O=16.00g
from the Periodic Table)
3.
Phosphoric acid (H3PO4) is a compound used in detergents, fertilizers, toothpastes and
flavoring in carbonated beverages. (Atomic masses: H=1.01g; P= 30.97g; O=16.00g from the
Periodic Table)
