Matter

Anything that occupies space and has mass.

Pure substance

Form of matter with a constant composition and uniform properties.

Element

Made of one type of atom.

Compounds

Contains two or more different elements.

Molecule

A basic unit of two or more atoms held together by covalent bonds.

Mixture

Composed of different kinds of atoms or molecules.

Homogeneous Mixture

Has the same composition and properities throughout.

Heterogeneous Mixture

Also called solutions.

Heterogeneous Mixtures

Does not have the same composition and properties throughout.

Phase

Any part of a system that does not have uniform composition and properties.

Heterogeneous Mixture

Consists of two or more phases.

Solid

Has a definite volume and definite shape.

Solid

Particles are held together so tightly that their motion is highly restricted.

Liquid

Has a definite volume but not a definite or rigid shape.

Liquids

Particles are relatively free to move, therefore liquids assume the shape of their container.

Gas

Has no fixed shape or volume.

Gas

Particles have very weak attraction for one another, allowing essentially complete freedom of motion.

Gas

Will assume the shape of any closed vessel and uniformly fill its entire contents.

Boiling (vaporization)

Liquid to gas.

Melting

Solid to a liquid.

Sublimibg

Solid to gas.

Freezing

Liquid to solid

Condensing

Gas to liquid.

Physical changes

Changes that alter the state or appearance of the matter without altering the composition.

Chemicals changes

Changes that alter the composition of the matter

Signs chemical change has occured

1.) Bubbles of gas form


2.) Odors and/or colors change


3.) A chemical burns or burst into flames


4.) An insoluble precipitate forms


5.) A large amount of heat, light, or both is given off.

Temperature

Measure of the intensity of 'hot" or "cold" in a sample of matter.

Heat

A measure of energy which always flows from the hotter sample to the colder sample.

Kelvin

°C + 273

°C = K-273

Kinetic energy

The energy of a sample matter possesses because of its motion.

Potential energy

The energy stored in an object because of its position.

Endorthermic Reaction

Change that causes a substance to absorb the heat from its surroundings.

Exothermic Reaction

Change in which heat is given off to the surroundings.

Specific heat

The quantity of heat (energy) that changes the temperature of exactly 1g of a substance by exactly 1°C.

Calorie (c)

The amount of heat needed to raise the temperature of exactly 1 g of water by exactly 1°C.
