Pure Substance
Matter with uniform and unchanging composition
ex: Salt (NaCl)
Water (H2O)
Physical Property
Characters that can be observed or measured without changing the substance
What are some examples of physical properties?
1. color
2. phase at 25 C
3. mp, fp, bp
4. density
5. odor
Extensive Property
Depends on amount present
What are some examples of extensive properties?
1. mass
2. volume
3. length
Intensive Property
Does not matter on amount
Chemical Property
Ability of subject to combine with or change into another substance
ex: iron rusts into open air
What are the four states of matter?
1. solid
2. liquid
3. gas
4. plasma
Characteristics of solids?
-Definite shape and volume
-Lowest kinetic energy
-Most organized tight bonds
-Closely packed
Characteristics of liquids?
-Definite volume
-No definite shape, can flow
-Medium organization, medium kinetic energy
-Loosely packed, particles slide
Characteristics of gases?
-No definite shape or volume
-Highest kinetic energy, no organization
-Particles not packed at all
-Can be compressed
Physical Change
Changes alter a subject without changing its composition
What are some examples of physical changes?
1. phase change
2. bend
3 grind
4. crumble
Chemical Change
(Reaction) Process in which one or more subjects change into new substances
Mixture
Combination of two or more pure substances. Each retains its own chemical properties.
Heterogeneous Mixture
-Does not have uniform composition, individual
-Components remain distinct
-Can be separated by physical means
ex: oil and vinegar
Homogenous Mixture
-Uniform composition is in a single phase (true solution)
-Cannot be separated by physical means
ex: coffee, tea, alloys (steel)
What are the four methods of separation of mixtures?
1. filtration - decant
2. distillation
3. crystalization
4. chromatography
Filtration
Porous barrier separates solids from liquids
Distillation
Separation based on difference of boiling points - mixture is heated until substance with lower boiling point vaporizes and boils off
Crystalization
Supersaturation of a solution causes pure substance to crystalize out of solution - produces highly purified solids
Chromatography
Separates mixture mobile phase by traveling down surface of material stationary phase
What is the difference between gas and vapor?
-Gas: phase of state
-Vapor: process of changing solid or liquid to gas
Element
Pure substance in its simplest form
When was the first periodic table formed?
1869 - Dimitri Mendeleev
Compound
Combination of two or more elements that are chemically combined
ex: CaClg, H2O
Law of Definite Proportions
Compound is composed of same elements in same proportion by mass (Regardless of amount, proportions of the same compounds are always the same)
Law of Multiple Proportions
Different compounds are formed from the same elements in a different ratio of whole numbers
