Learning Science as Scientists with PRAISE
Learning science is very important for your
future. It is not only for you who will choose
work in science, but also for all citizens of the
world. Science is the important basis when
you decide a lot of things in life. And the most
important thing is that science itself teach
us the scientific method which is one way of
resolving our problems. Therefore, learning
science is not the matter of memorizing the
terms, concepts, and working on difficult
exercises. Through this learning activity, you did
become a scientist. You are learning science by
doing science.
Prof. Dr. Ismunandar
Director of SEAMEO QITEP in Science
Learning the content of this book is the part
of a program called “PRAISE” (Promoting Real
Australian-Indonesian Science Education).
It aims to test a method of learning science
as scientists. This program is a collaboration
project between Indonesia and Australia
conducted by the South East Asian Ministers
of Education Organization (SEAMEO) Quality
Improvement of Teachers and Education
Personnel (QITEP) in Science and Science by
Doing Centre Australian Academy of Science,
with the support of the Australian Questacon,
Australia DIISTRE, Ministry of Education
and Culture of Indonesia and the Provincial
Education Office of West Java.
Hopefully you can enjoy learning science by
doing science. The ultimate goal of this program
is that you can go forward with any field you
choose and collaborate with your colleagues
under the guidance of your teacher. Hopefully
the experience of learning this book will provide
you with a positive experience in your journey
to keep up your achievements.

How do we deal with
this book?
Matter or substance is the
constituent of all things,
the natural or the
artificial ones, we
can find or use in our
daily life. They various
advantages, which in
fact have something to
do with their constituent
substances. By learning
the characteristics,
properties of the
substances, we can create
many useful things that
enable and make us easier
to things. That is why we
do not put on clothes made
of iron or our mothers do
not cook using pans made
of paper. The topic in this book
is the substances including their
properties and their impacts in
daily life.
v
Most part of this book is the
guidance for students. It is
expected that you will learn
science better and more
joyful when you look for
answers of questions by
observing, predicting,
trying, concluding and
communicating your ideas
of the topic. In education
term, it is called Inquiry
Model. It takes you
closer to what scientists
do when they analyze
things.
The theory used is so
light to you. However,
you will find the concept
deeper by activities you will do
here.

It provides information on activity you do.
QUIZ
6.Quiz (in yellow square)
Some activities is punctuated by questions or exercises
to help you find out how deep is your understanding on
the topic you learn.
vii
Learning science actively will improve
your positive behaviors, which are:
P Curiosity: is eager to find out more
of something.
P Creativity: is willing to solve
problems.
P Honesty: to lead people, a scientist
is not allowed to change the result of
observation or experiment.
P Objectivity: to decide things based
on data and facts, not prediction.
P Open Mind: a scientist has to be
able to share knowledge and able to
receive people’s idea based on data
and facts.
P Responsibility: Good scientist cares
for people and his surroundings.
Well, use this student book to do
scientific activities so that you will
learn important concepts of matter
or substance sharply. Hopefully
you will enjoy the activities as the
writers enjoyed the writing process
of this book. Be a Scientist
with those positive behaviors
mentioned in you!
Enjoy your learning!

ABOUT ATOMS
An atom is the smallest
part of an object that still
has its original properties.
Our body is also made up
of atoms. We are not able
to see an atom with our
naked eyes, even with an
ordinary microscope that
we see in the laboratory
because of its size, which is
about 20,000 times smaller
than the diameter of a
strand of hair. We can see
atoms with an instrument
called a Scanning Electron
Microscope (SEM).
An atom consists of three
sub-atomic particles:
the proton, electron and
neutron.

The History of Atoms
Greek Philosopher Democritus
(born 460 BCE)
“Matter could not be divided into smaller and smaller
pieces forever, eventually the smallest possible piece would
be obtained.”
John Dalton (1766-1844)
“All atoms of a given element are identical in mass and
properties.”
JJ Thomson (1856-1940)
“An atom consists of a sphere of positive charge with a
negatively charged electron embedded in it.”
Ernest Rutherford (1871-1937)
“The atom must have almost all of its mass concentrated
at its center, in a nucleus, with the vast majority of the
atom consisting chiefly of empty space.”
Niels Bohr (1885-1962)
“Electrons orbit the nucleus without losing energy.”
“Electrons could move only in fixed orbits of specific
energies.”
“Electrons with low energy would orbit closer to the
nucleus while electrons with high energy orbit further from
the nucleus.”
(refined Rutherford’s model)

Let’s get to know the elements!
Are all objects
composed
of the same
atoms?
?
What
you need
Each GROUP needs:
• Two objects or more
composed of different
materials that have the
same size and volume,
such as: iron, copper,
alluminum, etc.
Each STUDENT needs:
• Pen or pencil.
• Notebook.

Step 1
You have several objects
that have the same volume
but are made of different
materials. Try to predict
whether these objects have
the same mass? Explain!
Step 2
See the illustration below!
The alluminum cube is
composed of alluminum
atoms and the copper
cube is composed of
copper atoms. Based
on the illustration, find
the differences between
the two atoms and the
arrangement of the atoms
in each cube. Write about
the differences in your
notebook.
Step 3
Following on from Step 1,
explain why an object is
heavier than the others,
even though they have the
same shape and volume.
1
Step 4
The density of an object is
determined by the mass
of the object divided by its
volume. Among the objects
that you are using in this
experiment, which one has
the highest density? How
did you determine it?
Discu
ssion
(Write in your notebook!)
The density of an object
depends on the size, mass,
and composition of atoms
that make up the object.
Copper
From the experiment you
have done, what conclusion
can you draw about atoms
that make up a high density
object? What about low
density objects? What
makes them different?

Periodic Table of elements
What are the
properties of
an element?
?
Scientists have managed to find about
100 types of elements and determine
their properties. We can see the list of the
elements in a table called the Periodic
Table of Elements. The table classifies
elements based on their physical and
chemical properties.

Niels Bohr found that an
atom consists of a core that
is called the nucleus and
electrons that move around
the nucleus. This atom
model is called the Bohr
Atom Model.
All the atoms in the Periodic
Table of Elements have the
same number of protons
and electrons so that they
are all neutral. In the Table,
the number of protons in
an atom is shown as the
Atomic Number. In the

14
What is The Composition
of a Substance?
There are certain kinds of
atoms that have the same
atomic number but have
a differing mass number,
and these are known as
isotopes. For example,
oxygen has three isotopes
called oxygen-16, oxygen17, and oxygen-18. The
numbers following the
word ‘oxygen’ are the mass
numbers.

Each group member
records discussion result in
notebook.
As your teacher gives you
the sign to start, work with
other groups to combine
your atoms with other
atoms in other groups to be
molecules and place them
on the flipchart/F4 or A4
size paper (if your atoms
are made of paper) or use
toothpicks (if your atoms
are made of plasticine).
Write down the chemical
formula of each molecule
you made.
In the group of 4-5
students, take a look the
demonstration about
the substance formation
by your teacher! Make a
molecule formation model
made by your teacher:

Step 3
Divide the molecule
models you made into the
molecular elements and
molecular compounds!
Recheck your molecule
compositions you made
precisely and count the
molecules you have.
Then, collect them to your
teacher.

VARIOUS MOLECULES WITH THEIR UNIQUE NAMES
Naming the molecular compounds are usually customized
with the name of the compound sources which they derives
from. Such names can be unique and funny, such as the
following examples:
1.Complicated acid: it does not mean the acid that whose
a very complicated structure. In fact, the name is derived
from the source, the kind of plant, Stereum complicatum.
Stereum complicatum
2.Draculin: Well, sounds creepy, doesn’t it? Molecules of
these compounds are very useful for anti-coagulant,
prevents blood clotting. The molecule made up of
411 amino acids derives from vampire bat’s saliva,
the teacup sized animal blood sucking animals that
live in the central and southern parts of the America
continent.

3. Bongkrekic Acid: Well, this molecule compounds
originally made in Indonesia, because it is obtained
from a fungus that makes certain tempe (yeasted
soybean) toxic (in which Indonesian people call it
“tempe Bongkrek”).
“Tempe Bongkrek”
4. Traumatic acids: the molecular compound is formed
by plant tissue injury (trauma), that’s the other term is
“wound hormone”.
