Atoms, Molecules and Matter Matter Is composed of… Atoms Bond together to form… Compounds
Matter • Matter is the “stuff” of which the universe is composed. • Two characteristics: has mass and occupies space.
Atoms • Can we see atoms? • Scanning Tunneling Microscope • Matter is composed of tiny particles called atoms. A scanning tunneling microscope image of 5 nm gold nanoparticles www.chem.utoronto.ca/ staff/DHIRANI/
Compound vs Molecules • A molecule is formed when two or more atoms join together chemically. • A compound is a molecule that contains at least two different elements. • All compounds are molecules but not all molecules are compounds.
Molecules • Molecular hydrogen (H2), and molecular oxygen (O2) are molecules because each is composed of a single element. • Water (H2O), carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4) are compounds because • each is made from more than one element. • The smallest bit of each of these substances would be referred to as a molecule.
Compounds • Atoms of different elements can join together by chemical bonds to form a compound • A compound has totally different properties from its elements
Sodium Chloride • Sodium: Silvery White Metal Chlorine: Pale Green Gas http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chlorine
Diatomic Molecules NOFClBrI [H] Nitrogen Bromine Oxygen Iodine Fluorine Hydrogen Chlorine
Diatomic Molecules BrINClHOF Bromine Iodine Nitrogen Chlorine Hydrogen Oxygen Fluorine
States of Matter Solid Liquid Gas Model
Mixtures • A mixture is a substance made by combining two or more different materials in such a way that no chemical reaction occurs. • A mixture can usually be separated back into its original components. What are examples of mixtures?
Prefixes • Homo: • Greek = Same • Latin = Human • Hetero: • Greek = Mixed What words using these prefixes come to mind?
Mixtures • Homogenous Mixture: the particles are mixed so well that the separate parts cannot be seen (Salt Water) • Heterogenous Mixture: the different parts can be easily seen (Salt and Pepper)
