Matter Chapter 2
The Basics of Matter • Matter – is anything that has mass and takes up space – it is the “stuff” of which the universe is composed • Extensive properties – depend on the amount of matter in a sample • Mass, Volume • Energy, molarity (dilute or concentrated) • Intensive properties – depends on the type of matter in a sample, not the amount of matter • Density, freezing pt., boiling pt., absorbency, elasticity
Physical Properties • Things you can tell about a substance just by looking at it • You don’t need to alter the composition of the substance to determine these • Examples: • Color - density • Odor - melting point • Volume - boiling point
PURE SUBSTANCES • Always have the same composition • Pure substances are either elements or compounds • Examples: • Pure water (not lake/ocean water) • Copper • Zinc • rubbing alcohol
MIXTURES • A substance with variable composition • Made up of multiple pure substances • Examples: • Air • Wood • Coffee • Cookie dough
Two Types of Mixtures • Homogeneous mixture – looks the same throughout – can’t see different parts • Ex: Kool-Aid, sugar cookie dough • Heterogeneous mixture – can see the different parts • Ex: chocolate chip cookie dough, sand and water solution
Practice State whether each of the following is a pure substance, a homogeneous mixture, or a heterogeneous mixture. • Maple syrup • The oxygen and helium in a scuba tank • Oil and vinegar salad dressing • Common salt (sodium chloride – NaCl)

Distillation Laboratory display of distillation: 1: A heating device 2: Still pot 3: Still head 4: Thermometer/Boiling point temperature 5: Condenser 6: Cooling water in 7: Cooling water out 8: Distillate/receiving flask 9: Vacuum/gas inlet 10: Still receiver 11: Heat control 12: Stirrer speed control 13: Stirrer/heat plate 14: Heating (Oil/sand) bath 15: Stirring means e.g.(shown), anti-bumping granules or mechanical stirrer 16: Cooling bath. • Boil the liquid off of a solution and leaves the other components behind
Filtration • Separates a liquid from the solid • The liquid passes through the filter paper, but the solid particles are trapped
Summary – Breaking Down Matter MATTER HOMOGENEOUS MIXTURES HETEROGENEOUS MIXTURES Physical methods PURE SUBSTANCES ELEMENTS COMPOUNDS Chemical methods
ELEMENTS • Fundamental substances that cannot be broken down into other substances by chemical means • Found on the Periodic Table of Elements (if it’s not on the chart, it’s not an element) • Examples: • Aluminum • Oxygen • Hydrogen
COMPOUNDS • Compounds are combinations of different elements. • They can be broken down into their constituent elements by chemical changes. • A compound always has the same composition (i.e., the same combination of elements). • Examples: • Water (H2O) • Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
Element or Compound? • Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) • Mercury (Hg) • Vanadium (V) • Sodium chloride (NaCl)
Element or Compound? • Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) • compound • Mercury (Hg) • element • Vanadium (V) • element • Sodium chloride (NaCl) • compound
Physical Properties • Things you can tell about a substance just by looking at it • You don’t need to alter the composition of the substance to determine these • Examples: • Color - density • Odor - melting point • Volume - boiling point
Chemical Properties • These refer to the ability of a substance to form new substances (i.e., its reactivity) • Examples: • propane burns in the air • Baking soda fizzes if mixed with vinegar • A marshmallow gets black when toasted too long in a campfire • Hydrogen and oxygen react violently
Chemical or Physical? • The boiling point of a certain alcohol is 78°C. • Diamond is very hard. • Sugar ferments to form alcohol. • Gallium metal melts in your hand. • Platinum does not react with oxygen at room temperature. • Your paper is white.
Chemical or Physical? • The boiling point of a certain alcohol is 78°C. • Diamond is very hard. • Sugar ferments to form alcohol. • Gallium metal melts in your hand. • Platinum does not react with oxygen at room temperature. • Your paper is white. Green is physical. White is chemical.
Physical Changes • Physical changes do not affect the composition of the substance. • Examples: • State changes (solid liquidgas) • Melting • Evaporating • Freezing • etc • Breaking a substance into smaller pieces
Chemical Changes • Chemical changes involve a change in the composition of the substance. • Examples: • Burning something • Reacting two substances to make something new • Running an electric current through water to decompose water into hydrogen and oxygen
Some practice…Chemical or Physical? • Iron metal is melted. • Iron combines with oxygen to form rust. • A piece of wood is burned in a fireplace. • A rock is broken into small pieces. • A log of wood is chopped up with an axe into smaller pieces of wood. • Water evaporates to become water vapor.

Recognizing a Chemical Change • Formation of a precipitate • A solid that forms and settles out of a liquid mixture • Change in color • Some reactions result in a change from one color to another • Production of a gas • Bubbles must be a new substance • Results of physical change are not new substances (ex: boiling) • Transfer of energy • Burning something gives off energy in the form of heat and light
Law of Conservation of Mass “During any chemical reaction, the mass of the products is always equal to the mass of the reactants.” REACTANTS PRODUCTS
