2.1

Classification of Matter

Pure Substance - has a defined composition and cannot be separated into simpler substances by physical means.

Each substances has a fixed, uniform composition.

2.1

Pure Substances Compounds - consist of atoms

chemically combined together Elements - substance composed of

only one type of atom

2.1

Pure Substances

ELEMENTS Cannot be broken

down into simpler substances.

Can be found as solids, liquids, or gases

Represented by symbols

COMPOUNDS 2 more elements

chemically joined together

Can be broken down through chemical means

Represented by a formula

the name Symbols derived from non-English

2.1

Compound Is composed of 2 or more different

elements joined in a fixed proportions.

Is a compound of Sodium and Chlorine The properties of a compound are

different from those of the substances from which they are made.

2.1

MixturesMixtures Mixtures - are impure matter Mixture - is composed of more

than one element and or compound.

The percentage composition varies from sample to sample.

Components are chemically different and retain properties in a mixture do not melt/boil at a definite temperature

2.1

Types of MixturesTypes of Mixtures

A homogeneous mixture has the same composition compounds throughout. Also called a solution.

A heterogeneous mixture has different compositions and properties throughout. Sand

2.1

Solution

Solution-homogeneous mixture where all components are of the same phase Air N2 and O2, Salt Water NaCl and H2O,

White Gold Au and Pd They do not separate into distinct layers

over time. The particles are too small to settle out,

be trapper by a filter or scatter light.

2.1

Suspension

“Shake well before using” Suspension-heterogeneous mixture

in which the different components are in different phases Milk (water, solid proteins), Blood (water, solid

proteins), Fog (air, tiny water droplets) The particles will settle out to the

bottom of the container, will be trapped by a filter and will scatter light.

2.1

Colloids

Homogenized milk is a colloid. Fog is a colloid.

Contains particles that are intermediate in size.

Like a solution, colloids will not separate into layers and you cannot filter it.

The particles will scatter light.

Physical Properties Properties that can be observed

and measured without changing the composition of the substance

ColorState of Matter Solid, liquid or gasMelting and Boiling PointSolubilityDensityMetallic CharacterElectrical ConductivityThermal ConductivityMagnetic PropertiesMalleability Ease of deformationViscosity Ease of flow

2.2

Viscosity The resistance to flowing The viscosity of a liquid

usually decreases with heating.

Water has a low viscosity Honey has a high

viscosity

2.2

Conductivity The ability of a material to allow

heat to flow through it. Good heat conductors are usually

a good electrical conductor.

2.2

Malleability and Hardness The ability of a solid to be

hammered without shattering. Most metals are malleable. Solids that shatter when struck are

brittle. Hardness is based on which

substance will scratch the other.

2.2

Melting point and boiling point Melting point is the point at which

a substance changes from a solid to a liquid.

Boiling point point is the point at which a substance changes from Liquid to a gas.

2.2

Density Is a ratio of the mass of a

substance to the volume of the substance.

Density can be used to test the purity of a substance.

2.2

Using Physical Properties To identify Materials

1. Decide which property to test. 2. Do the test on an unknown sample. 3. Compare the results with known

material data.

2.2

Using Physical Properties To Choose Materials

Don’t only look at one property Make sure it fits all your needs

2.2

Using Properties to Separate Mixtures

Mixtures can be separated by Physical means.

What are some ways to separate mixtures?

2.2

Filtration Separating an

substance based on particle size.

Using a strainer or screen.

2.2

Distillation The process that

separates substances based on boiling points.

2.2

Distillation, Magnets & Evaporation

Separation of a Heterogeneous Mixture

• The iron chips in a mixture of iron and sulfur may be removed by stirring the heterogeneous mixture with a magnet.

Fractional Distillation2.2

Recognizing Physical Change

In a physical change, the substances are not altered chemically, but merely changed to another phase (i.e. gas, liquid, solid) or separated or combined.

Uses little energy. Some can be reversed and some

can not be reversed.

Chemical Properties

Chemical properties are properties of an element or compound in chemical reactions. The fact that sodium reacts with

water is a chemical property. Iron will rust when exposed to water

and oxygen. Flammability (+ oxygen) Acidic or basic

2.3

Chemical Change

In a chemical change, the substances are altered chemically and display different physical and chemical properties after the change.

Needs a lot of energy. Is not easily reversible.

2.3

Signs of Chemical Change

Release of gas

2.3

Signs of Chemical Change

Color change

2.3

Signs of Chemical Change

Formation of a precipitate

2.3

Signs of Chemical Change

Energy change Exothermic Endothermic

2.3

The difference between physical and chemical

change

ONLY in a chemical change do you end up with a NEW substance

Chemical changes cannot be reversed!

Physical changes can be reversed!!!

Chemical Reactions Synonymous to chemical change. Atoms switch partners.

RustBromine and Phosphorus

A precipitate of cadmium sulfide
