I. Classifying Matter A. Pure substances – fixed composition 1. elements a. Carbon (C) b. Oxygen (O) 2. compounds a. CaCl b. NaCl
Mixtures – properties of mixtures can vary because composition is not fixed 1. heterogeneous mixture – unevenly mixed a. trail mix 2. homogenous – evenly mixed a. milk
C. Solutions – homogenous mixture of two or more substances 1. salt water http://www.chem4kids.com/files/matter_solution.html a. Solvent (water = universal solvent) dissolves solute b. Solute (salt = salt water) substance being dissolved 2. saturated solution – no more solute than can be dissolved 3. super-saturated solution – more solute in mixture than can be dissolved 4. dilute solution – more solute can be dissolved by solvent
Suspension - particles of a substance are mixed with a fluid but are undissolved 1. Italian salad dressing E. Colloid – a homogenous mixture with particles larger than solution, but smaller than suspension 1. whole milk
II. Physical Properties of Matter http://www.chem4kids.com/files/matter_chemphys.html A. Examples of physical properties 1. viscosity – resistance of a fluid to flow 2. conductivity – ability of a substance to pass Energy 3. malleability – ability to bend without breaking 4. hardness – resistance to scratch 5. melting point – temperature that turns a solid to a liquid 6. boiling point – temperature that turns a liquid to a gas 7. density – comparison of an objects mass to its volume
B. Using physical properties 1. identify materials (fools gold vs. real gold = density) 2. choose materials (buildings, car engines) C. Using properties to separate mixtures 1. filtration – removing suspended materials 2. distillation – separating solute from solution
D. Recognizing Physical Changes 1. a substance has a new appearance, but has not changed into a new substance a. melting b. tearing c. bending
III. Chemical Properties A. Examples of Chemical Properties 1. flammability – ability to burn 2. reactivity – potential to form new substances when combined with another substance
B. Recognizing Chemical Changes http://www.ric.edu/faculty/ptiskus/Chem_Review/Index.htm 1. color change 2. formation of a precipitate 3. production of a gas 4. temperature change
