Did you know that the average human nose can recognize about 10,000 different smells?

Nature of Matter What is Chemistry?? hmmm

Describing Matter Properties of Matter What is Matter? Matter – anything that has mass and takes up space. (remember that the amount of space something occupies is its volume)

Some types of matter are substances and some are not. Substance a single kind of matter that is pure and a specific set of properties. (Pure = always has a specific makeup or composition)

Describing Matter Physical Properties a property of matter that can be observed w/out changing the identity. ex. Color, odor, mass, volume, state, and…..

Thermal conductivity – ability to transfer thermal energy • Malleability – can be pounded into sheets (aluminum foil) • Ductility – can be drawn or pulled into a wire. • Solubility – can dissolve in another substance

And Density – mass per unit volume Formula D = m/v Density of one substance is usually different from another. Most Dense Liquids have a higher number and are located at the bottom

Good Egg vs Bad Egg Density of Good Egg = 1.2 g/ml Density of Bad Egg = .9 g/ml Density of water = 1.0 g/ml Result Bad Egg Floats

Physical vs Chemical Changes Physical Change – does not form a new substance (most can be undone) Chemical Change – does form a new substance CANNOT BE UNDONE

Chemical changes often involve: • Color changes • Fizzing/foaming • Heat • Sound/light • Odor

Chemical Properties One substances ability to change into a new substance w/ different properties. i.e. Wood burns and becomes smoke & ash

Chemical Properties • Flammability – ability to burn • Non-flammability – cannot burn • Reactivity with - gas acid water

Elements An element is a pure substance that cannot be broken down into any other substances. !!!!Elements are the purest substances!!!!

Elements composed of atoms. Atoms combine to form molecules by creating chemical bonds. Compounds – a pure substance made of two or more elements chemically combined in a set ratio. (different properties than single elements) H2O

Mixtures – made of two or more substances not chemically combined. Heterogeneous - you can see the different parts Homogeneous – evenly mixed that you cannot see the different parts. A solution is an example.

Mixture Separation • Magnet • Filtering • Distilling • Evaporation

What is Energy • Energy is the ability to do work…. • And that work causes an object to move in the direction of the force. • It is expressed in units called Joules (J)

Forms of Energy • Thermal – is the total K.E. of the particles of an object (from hot to cold) • Chemical – energy required to bond matter particles together (toasting marshmallows) Thermal Imaging Chemically bonded atoms

Endothermic vs Exothermic Endothermic – energy is absorbed i.e. Melted cheese sandwich – the cheese takes in energy to melt. The sun is also endothermic.

Exothermic – energy is released i.e. Welding of any kind releases energy in form of sparks and heat

Endo vs Exo Graphs Endothermic Reaction

Electromagnetic energy- form of energy that travels thru space as waves. • Electrical energy – energy of electrically charged particles moving from one place to another.
