Properties of Matter Chapter 4 Larry Emme Chemeketa Community College
Properties of a Substance • A property is a characteristic of a substance. • Each substance has a set of properties that are characteristic of that substance and give it a unique identity.
The inherent characteristics of a substance that are determined without changing its composition. • Examples: • taste • color • physical state • melting point • boiling point
Physical Properties of Chlorine • 2.4 times heavier than air • color is yellowish-green • odor is disagreeable • melting point –101oC • boiling point –34.6oC
Describe the ability of a substance to form new substances, either by reaction with other substances or by decomposition.
Chemical Properties of Chlorine • It will not burn in oxygen. • It will support the combustion of certain other substances. • It can be used as a bleaching agent. • It can be used as a water disinfectant. • It can combine with sodium to form sodium chloride.
Physical Changes • Changes in physical properties (such as size shape and density) or changes in the state of matter without an accompanying change in composition. • Examples: • tearing of paper • change of ice into water • change of water into steam • heating platinum wire
In a chemical change new substances are formed that have different properties and composition from the original material.
Formation of Copper(II) Oxide Heating a copper wire in a Bunsen burner causes the copper to lose its original appearance and become a black material. The black material is a new substance called copper(II) oxide. Copper is 100% copper by mass. Copper (II) oxide is: 79.94% copper by mass 20.1% oxygen by mass. The formation of copper(II) oxide from copper and oxygen is a chemical change. The copper (II) oxide is a new substance with properties that are different from copper.
Formation of Copper(II) Oxide Copper(II) oxide is made up of Cu2+ and O2- Neither Cu nor O2 contains Cu2+ or O2- A chemical change has occurred.
heat product yield reactants Copper plus oxygen yields copper(II) oxide.
No change is observed in the total mass of the substances involved in a chemical change.
46.0 g 32.1 g mass reactants = sodium + sulfur sodium sulfide 78.1 g → 78.1 g reactant 78.1 g product mass products
A form of energy associated with small particles of matter. Heat • A measure of the intensity of heat, or of how hot or cold a system is. Temperature
The SI unit for heat energy is the joule (pronounced “jool” rhymes with fool). Another unit is the calorie. (exactly) 4.184 Joules = 1 calorie 4.184 J = 1 cal This amount of heat energy will raise the temperature of 1 gram of water 1oC.
The specific heat of a substance is the quantity of heat required to change the temperature of 1 g of that substance by 1oC.
The relation of mass, specific heat, temperature change (Δt), and quantity of heat lost or gained is expressed by the general equation: Heat (cal) = mass (g) specific heat (cal/g C) Δt (C)
391.5 cal 0.113 cal g C = Calculate the specific heat of a solid in cal/goC if 391.5 cal raise the temperature of 125 g of the solid from 25.0oC to 52.6oC. heat = (mass)(specific heat)Δt heat = (g)(specific heat)Δt heat = 391.5 cal mass = 125 g Δt = 52.6oC – 25.0oC = 27.6oC
In all chemical changes, matter either absorbs or releases energy.
