  1. Matter

  2. What is matter? • Something which occupies space and has mass • Can be sensed and measured

  3. Is everything in the universe matter? No!

  4. Describing Matter • Since the time of the Greeks, people have wondered about the nature of matter. • There were 2 main concepts.

  5. Concepts of Matter • Matter is continuous. • It can be subdivided forever. • There is no smallest particle.

  6. Concepts of Matter • Matter is NOT continuous. • Subdividing matter eventually must stop at the smallest particle. • This is theparticle theory of matter.

  7. The Particle Model of Matter

  8. How big are these particles? • Very, very tiny • 1 million particles laid side-by-side would not be as long as the thickness of a sheet of paper.

  9. What are they called? • These smallest particles are called atoms. • Aristotle thought that they had no size at all. • We can image atoms with the STM (Scanning Tunneling Electron Microscope).

  10. Particle Model Evidence A good model should match real-life observations.

  11. Particle Model Evidence • Dissolving sugar into tea • Dissolving cherry drink mix into water

  12. Particle Model Evidence • We can indirectly observe that these particles are moving.

  13. Particle Model Evidence • The mixing caused by this motion is called diffusion. • Since Robert Brown first noticed evidence of the particle motion that causes diffusion, it is called Brownian motion.

  14. Kinetic-Molecular Theory The evidence leads to the conclusion that matter is composed of tiny particles that are in random, constant motion.

  15. Atom • Basic particle of matter • Made up of protons, neutrons and electrons

  16. Protons • Located in the nucleus • Have a + charge • Have the same relative mass as the neutron

  17. Neutrons • Located are in the nucleus • Have a neutral charge • Have the same relative mass as proton

  18. Electrons • Located are outside the nucleus • Have a negative charge • Have a very tiny relative mass compared to protons and neutrons

  19. Atom • Mass – protons and neutrons account for almost all of the mass of the atom • Volume – electrons account for the volume of the atom

  20. Molecules • Molecules are formed when atoms bond together. • Molecules usually do not have a charge.

  21. Ions • A charged atom • Formed with atoms lose or gain electrons

  22. Ions • Cations – atoms lose electrons to form positive ions. • Anions – atoms gain electrons to form negative ions.

  23. What is “mixing” due to particle motion? • Diffusion • Boiling • Freezing • Melting Question

  24. T/F A molecule consists of atoms chemically bonded together. T Question

  31. Pure Substances • contain only one kind of matter

  32. Elements All atoms are the same.

  33. Compounds • made up of two ore more atoms • have the same ratio of elements

  34. Compounds 2 types Organic Inorganic • contain carbon • living things • do not have carbon • water, table salt

  35. Mixtures • Contains two or more substances • physically placed together, not bonded • Variable composition

  36. Mixtures 2 types Homogeneous Heterogeneous

  37. Homogeneous • Particles are NOT visible separate. • called solutions Examples: saltwater, alloys

  38. Heterogeneous • Particles are visible separate. Examples: soil, vegetable stew, wood, concrete

  39. States of Matter • solid • liquid • gas

  40. Solid • Particles are locked in place. They are rigid and have a definite shape. • Particles have low kinetic (motion) energy. • Particles are not very compressible and have a definite volume.

  41. 3 Types of Solid Structures • crystalline – Particles are locked in a pattern. • amorphous – Particles lack a pattern; fluid • heterogeneous solid – no orderly pattern but not totally random

  42. Liquid • Particles can flow around each other. They have no definite shape. • Particles have a higher kinetic energy than solids. • Particles are not very compressible. They have a definite volume.

  43. Viscosity • the thickness of a liquid • High attraction between the particles and flows slowly. • Less viscous at higher temperatures

  44. Lubricants liquids that reduce friction

  45. Gas • Particles are separate from one another; no definite volume or shape. • Particles can be compressed because of the space between them.

  46. Gas • Particles move very fast and have a very high kinetic energy. This allows them to overcome attractive forces. • Particles move a short distance before colliding with other gas particles.

  47. Fluids (Liquids and Gases) substances that have the ability to flow

  48. Fluids (Liquids and Gases) • Gas expands to fill a container; liquid does not. • Both gases and liquids will mix because the particles are not locked in place.

  49. Fluids (Liquids and Gases) • A warmer substance mixes faster. • Particles colliding with a container cause pressure.

  50. Plasma hot, ionized gas
