Flour & Sugar Chapter 2 – Nature of Matter
Chapter 2 – Nature of Matter • Section 1 – Describing Matter Guide for Reading • What kinds of properties are used to describe matter? • What are elements, and how do they relate to compounds? • What are the properties of a mixture? Standards • 8.3.b – Students know that compounds are formed by combining two or more different elements and that compounds have properties that are different from their constituent elements.

Matter • Anything that has mass and takes up space • All the “stuff” around you is matter • Matter can be divided into two categories: mixtures and pure substances Back to Mind Map
Pure Substances • Substances that are a single kind of matter • Always has the same make up and properties no matter where it comes from • Ex: table salt- always comes from seawater or a salt mine Back to Mind Map
Elements • A pure substance that CANNOT be broken down into any other substance • They are the simplest substance • Ex: carbon, calcium Back to Mind Map
Compound • Made up of two or more elements chemically combined • Ex: Water- hydrogen and oxygen Back to Mind Map
Granite Rock Chocolate & Water Flour & Sugar Mixtures • Made up of two or more substances (elements or compounds) but they DO NOT chemically combine • They CAN be separated Back to Mind Map
Heterogeneous Mixture • You can see the different parts • Separate the parts easily • Ex: Salad or sand and flour Back to Mind Map
Homogenous Mix - Solutions • A very well mixed mixture • Can’t see or tell that there are different parts even though there are • Ex: sugar water – can’t tell the sugar from the water after mixing Back to Mind Map
Question 1: What would salt water be considered? • An element • A compound • A solution or homogenous mixture • A heterogeneous mixture Back to Mind Map
Question 2: Which is an example of a heterogeneous mixture? • Fruit punch • Sand and rocks • Sugar water • Kool-Aid Back to Mind Map
Question 3: Matter can be divided into two categories, what are they? Mixtures and Pure Substances Back to Mind Map
Properties of Matter • Every form of matter has 2 kinds of properties: • Physical Properties • Chemical Properties
Physical Property • A characteristic of a substance that can be observed without changing it into another substance. • Used the classify matter • Examples include: color, texture, melting point, density, etc.
Chemical Property • A characteristic of a pure substance that describes its ability to change into different substances. • To observe chemical properties, you must try to change it to another substance. • Cannot be observed by just looking at the substance
