Matter
|
Anything that takes up space and has mass
|
Space/Mass
|
|
Mass
|
The amount of matter in an object
|
matter/object
|
|
Pure Substance
|
Matter that has a uniform composition (H2O) and can’t be separated by physical means
|
uniform
|
|
Mixture
|
A physical blend of 2 or more pure substances (Salt water).
Can be separated by physical means |
pure substances/physical
|
|
Physical Properties
|
Can be observed and measured without changing the substance.Ex. Density, color, odor, taste, hardness,melting point, boiling point.
|
observe/ w/o change
|
|
Chemical Properties
|
Ability of a substance to combine with or change into one or more substances.
Ex. heat of combustion, reactivity with water, PH, and electromotive force. |
ability
|
|
Extensive Properties
|
A property that changes when the size of the sample changes.
Ex. Mass, length, volume |
size of sample
|
|
Intensive Properties-
|
A property that doesn't change when you take away some of the sample. Ex. temperature, color, hardness, melting point, boiling point, pressure, molecular weight, and density.
|
doesn't change
|
|
Solid-
|
Mater that has definite shape and volume.
|
definite/definite
|
|
Liquid-
|
Matter that has definite volume but takes the shape of its container (flows).
|
definite/indefinite
|
|
Gas-
|
A substance without definite volume or shape and can flow to fill its container.
|
indefinite/indefinite/fills
|
|
Vapor-
|
A gas, but normally is a liquid or solid at room temperature (Water vapor)
|
gas ...
|
|
Plasma
|
High temperature ionized gas
Most common in the universe |
temp/ion
|
|
Physical changes
|
A change that alters appearances, without changing the composition. Examples: Melting Ice, Bend a spoon,
|
appearance
|
|
Chemical changes
|
A change where a new form of matter is formed. Also called chemical reaction. Examples? rusting, explode, burn, rot, tarnish
|
New
|
|
Conservation of Mass Law
|
Mass can not be created or destroyed in ordinary (not nuclear) changes. All the mass can be accounted for. Mass at the start of a reaction (Reactants) = mass at end (Products)
|
created/destroyed
|
|
Mixtures
|
Made up of two or more pure substances. Variable composition. Mixtures can be Homogeneous or heterogeneous
|
substances
|
|
Heterogeneous-
|
A mixture that is not the same from place to place. (Chocolate chip cookie, gravel, soil).
|
uneven
|
|
Homogeneous-
|
A mixture that has the same composition throughout. (Kool-aid, air). Every part keeps its properties. A Homogeneous mixture is also referred to as Solution.
|
uniform
|
|
Solution
|
A Homogeneous mixture
|
|
|
Filtration-
|
Separates mixtures of solids from liquids with a physical barrier
|
separation
|
|
Distillation-
|
Separate a mixture by using the different boiling points.
Heat mixture- Catch vapor in cooled area- condense. |
Boiling points
|
|
Chromatography-
|
Different substances are attracted to paper or gel, so they move at different speeds, thus separating.
|
|
|
Crystallization-
|
Separation technique that results in the formation of pure solid. (ex. Making rock candy).
|
|
|
Elements-
|
Simplest form of matter that can’t be broken down into simpler substances. Made-up of identical atoms (Ex. Na, Fe)
|
Simple
|
|
Compounds
|
A substance consisting of two or more different elements chemically bonded together in a fixed proportion.(ex. NaCl).
can be broken down by chemical methods When they are broken down, the pieces have completely different properties than the compound. (Salt vs. Na or Cl) Made of molecules- two or more atoms stuck together (H2O) |
|
|
Molecules-
|
Two or more atoms joined togethe (H2O)
|
|
|
Chemical Reactions
|
Another name for chemical change
When one or more substances are changed into new substances. Reactants- stuff you start with Products- What you make NEW PROPERTIES |
|
|

|
|
Indications of a chemical reaction
|
Energy absorbed or released
Color change Odor change Precipitate- solid that separates from solution Not easily reversed |
|
|
Precipitate
|
A solid that separates from solution
|
|
|
Chemical symbols
|
Used to write chemical formulas. Subscripts tell us how many of each atom
H2O.s (He, Fe, etc.) Each has a 1 or two letter symbol. First letter always capitalized second never (Pb) |
|
|
Mixture separation techniques
|
By physical means, such as:
Filtration Crystallization Chromatography Distillation |
|
|
Examples of Physical Properties
|
Density, color, odor, taste, hardness,melting point, boiling point
|
|
|
Example of a chemical property
|
heat of combustion, reactivity with water, PH, and electromotive force.
|
|
|
Most common state of matter in the universe
|
Plasma
|
|
|
Example of a physical change
|
crushing a can, melting an ice cube, and breaking a bottle.
|
|
|
Reactants
|
Any substance that is directly involved in a chemical reaction.
|
|
|
Products
|
Any substance that is directly produced in a chemical reaction.
