CLASSIFYING MATTERSection 2.1
What is Matter?
Matter is…
…anything that takes up space (has volume) and has mass
Essentially… anything made of atoms
Properties
All matter has different properties because of different structures/compositions
Types of Matter
Pure Substances have a definite, fixed composition
Compositions of a Mixture can vary
Pure Substances Two kinds: element and
compound
Elements cannot be broken down into simpler substances
Smallest particle of an element is an atom
118 different elements = 118 different atoms
Pure Substances
Compounds are made up of two or more elements chemically bonded together
Elements have SYMBOLS!
Compounds have FORMULAS!
Pure Substances
The properties of a compounds ARE OFTEN DIFFERENT from the properties of the elements that make up that compound!
Mixtures
Composition of a mixture can vary
Example: In a mixture of A, B, and C… you could have a little more A and a little less C, or any other combination.
Types of Mixtures
Heterogeneous mixtures have obviously different parts
Homogeneous mixtures (aka. solutions) have multiple substances evenly distributed
Other Important Terms
Solution: particles are too small to be filtered or scatter light; will not separate into layers
Suspension: cloudy (scatter light); large particles will separate into layers over time
Other Important Terms
Colloid: mostly small particles, but some larger-sized ones
Colloids do not separate into layers
Colloids do scatter light
PHYSICAL PROPERTIESSection 2.2
Properties of Matter
Chemical Properties can only be observed as the matter is changing into a different substance
Physical Properties can be observed using touch, smell, sight, or measurement; substance does not need to be changed
Physical Properties
Viscosity – resistance to flow (increases at cold temperatures, decreases at warm temperatures
Conductivity – ability to transfer heat or electricity
Physical Properties
Malleability – ability to be hammered into wires or sheets
Hardness – which substances can scratch which other substances?
Physical Properties
Melting Point
Boiling Point
Density = mass / volume
Units for density: g/cm3
Separating Mixtures
You can separate most mixtures based on their physical properties
Filtration (based on size of particles)
Distillation (based on boiling points)
Separating Mixtures
Physical Changes Properties change,
but material remains the same
Tye-dye Slicing Mixing or dissolving
Changes in STATE are physical changes
CHEMICAL PROPERTIESSection 2.3
Chemical Properties
Flammability
Reactivity
Toxicity
Chemical Changes
Any change in which one chemical substance changes into another chemical substance
Evidence: Color change Gas produced Precipitate produced
“Precipitate”
A solid that forms when two liquids react and separates out of the liquids
STATES OF MATTERSection 3.1
States of Matter
Solid Liquid Gas
Different states refer to…
States of Matter
Different states refer to…
1. Whether shapes/volumes are fixed or variable
2. Arrangement of atoms
Solids
Definite shape Definite volume
Atoms are packed so tightly they cannot move, only vibrate
Liquids
Definite volume No definite shape
Atoms are packed tightly together, but can flow
Gases
No definite shape No definite volume
Atoms are spread far apart and move quickly and randomly
Changes in State…
…are physical changes.
…occur as molecules speed up or slow down because of changes in temperature.
Changes in State
Evaporation
Condensation
Melting
Freezing
Sublimation
Deposition
TEST PREPOctober 21, 2011
Are you ready for the test? Have you read all the textbook
sections thoroughly?
Are you ready for the test? Have you gone, little-by-little, back
through your notes each night?
Are you ready for the test? Have you used the notes on
SlideShare?
Are you ready for the test? Have you practiced with the problems
in the back of the chapter?
Are you ready for the test? Have you re-written some difficult
terms/definitions or made flash cards?
Are you ready for the test? Have you checked the correct answers
to your ClassMarker quiz?
Are you ready for the test? Did you understand how to correctly
measure and calculate density in the lab?
Scores 6-7 : very well prepared
5: getting close; average preparedness; still work to be done
3-4: TROUBLE! much more work to be done
0-2: WHAT THE HECK HAVE YOU BEEN DOING FOR TWO WEEKS???
Element, Compound, Homogeneous, or Heterogeneous? Carbon
Sucrose (C12H22O11) Sugar dissolved in water Air Steel A leaf A crayon (without the paper) Silver Pure water Shampoo
Physical or Chemical Property?
Flammability Viscosity Melting Point Density Reactivity Conductivity Boiling Point Hardness Malleability Toxicity
Physical or Chemical Change? When you shake a soda, it foams out the
top when opened. Wood is burned in a campfire for heat. Silver polish reacts with the dirt stuck to
your jewelry and removes it. Cook eggs and bacon for breakfast. A sample of gold is flattened into a sheet of
gold foil. Carbohydrates and proteins are broken
down by your cells for energy. Alcohol boils and is collected in a new
container.
Scores 24-27 : very well prepared
18-23: getting close; average preparedness; still work to be done
12-17: TROUBLE! much more work to be done
0-11: WHAT THE HECK HAVE YOU BEEN DOING FOR TWO WEEKS???
