|
vapor
|
gas that naturally occurs in liquid state
|
|
matter
|
anything that occupies space and has mass
|
|
mass
|
the quantity of matter
|
|
weight
|
changes as you move away from earth
|
|
sublimation
|
solid --> gas, skips liquid stage
|
|
matter classified into 2 groups
|
pure substances & mixtures
|
|
pure substances classified into 3 groups
|
compounds, elements, atoms
|
|
mixtures classified into 2 categories
|
heterogeneous & homogeneous
|
|
heterogeneous classified into 2 categories
|
suspension & colloid
|
|
homogeneous
|
"solution"
looks same throughout and cannot see individual componenets ex. saltwater |
|
suspension
|
large particles
settle or filter out ex. coffee grounds |
|
colloid
|
small particles
do not settle out ex. milk borderline heterogeneous/homogeneous |
|
solution
|
very small particles
ex. salt water |
|
mixtures
|
physical combo of 2 or more substances
retain individual properties of components. ex. sand water = sand+water can be separated by physical means |
|
aqueous solutions
|
contain water
|
|
tyndall effect
|
can see light beam if there are large particles.
a solution will never show light |
|
heterogeneous
|
looks different throughout, layer, or you can see individual components
ex. sand water |
|
compound
|
2 or more elements
chemicall bonded fixed proportions ex. H2O |
|
elements
|
made up of only 1 type of atom.
ex. H or H2 |
|
atom
|
smallest particle
|
|
pure substances
|
uniform, definite composition
can NOT be separated by physical means Tyndall effect does not show |
|
chromatography
|
dye molecules separated using a solvent on paper
|
|
filtration
|
trapping large particles in a piece of paper
|
|
settling
|
allowing impurities to simply fall out due to gravity
|
|
distillation
|
separation of a mixture based on boiling points
|
|
law of definite proportions
|
same proportions by mass
mass of element/mass of compound x 100 |
|
law of multiple proportions
|
the same elements can combine in different ways
same elements:diff ratios H2O vs H2O2 |
