Properties Of Matter
- 1. Properties of Matter Chemistry Bundle 1 y
- 2. What is C Chemistry? The study of matter – its composition, structure, properties & the changes it ,p p g undergoes Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space.
- 3. Building Blocks of Matter: f Atom– Atom smallest particle of matter that retains the identity of the substance Element – made up of only 1 t El t d f l type of f atom; can’t be separated into simpler substances b t Compound – a combination of two or more different elements that are chemically combined
- 4. Properties of Matter: f All matter can be identified by its properties – its characteristics and behavior. Properties can be described as either chemical or physical, and intensive or extensive. e tensi e
- 5. Ch i l Properties: Chemical P ti Ability or inability of a substance to combine with another substance or change into a new substance Can only be observed when there is a change in the composition of the substance Always relates to a chemical change, also called a chemical reaction reaction.
- 6. Examples of Chemical Properties: fC Reactivity - “How does it react with acids?” ; “Does it react with water?” Instability - tendency of substance to breakdown into different substances Toxicity – how poisonous; chlorine, lead pH – measure of acidity Flammability – the ease with which it will burn
- 7. Physical Properties: Characteristics that can be observed or measured They describe the substance itself (alone) Don’t involve changes in composition Ex. Water is still H2O whether it is liquid, i ice or steam
- 8. Examples of Physical Properties Color Texture – how it feels: such as slimy, rough, fuzzy Malleability – can be hammered or rolled into a sheet; Al foil Ductility – can be drawn into a wire copper electrical wire Mass - the amount of matter an object contains 5 grams of carbon
- 9. More Examples of Phys. Prop: Volume – the amount of space occupied by an object a gal. of milk Density – mass per volume unit compactness Solubility – the ability to dissolve sugar in tea Conductivity – ability to transfer heat, y y , electricity or sound
- 10. 2 Types of Physical Properties: Intensive properties: do not change with amount; are used for identification Example 1-1: List some intensive properties: Density, color, texture, boiling point, freezing point, odor, etc f i i t d t 2. Extensive properties: depend on the amount of matter present; these change constantly and therefore cannot be used for identification Example 1 2: List extensive properties 1-2: Mass, length, heat or temperature, weight, etc.
- 11. Physical and chemical properties can be qualitative y and quantitative descriptions of matter. Example1-3: Give an example of a qualitative property. The solution is clear blue; the solid is hard; or the liquid boils at a low temperature Example 1-4: Give an example of a q quantitative p p y property. Density of iron is 7.86 g/mL; ice melts at 0oC; a mass of 35.7 g of sodium chloride dissolves in 100 mL of water
- 12. Observations of properties can vary depending on the conditions of the environment Both physical environment. and chemical properties depend on temperature and pressure. As a result, it is important to note p p the specific conditions in which observations of properties are made. Example 1-5: Consider the three physical states of water – solid, liquid, gas. How do the properties of water change as the temperature changes? h ? Liquid water has a density of 1.00 g/mL & is not very chemically reactive. Solid water (ice) has lower density. Gas water (steam), reacts chemically with several different (steam) substances.
- 13. Physical C Changes: Change in physical state but not its composition; change in size, shape, or phase Most physical changes are reversible Example 1-6: N E l 1 6 Name examples of physical l f h i l changes. grinding, bending, dissolving, splitting, crushing, melting, boiling
- 14. Chemical C C Changes: Involve a NEW substance being formed that has different properties p p Chemical changes are usually not reversible Example 1-7: Name examples of chemical changes. burning, rusting, corroding, rotting, tarnishing, neutralizing
- 15. Indicators of Chemical Change: a color change l h a texture change a gas produced a precipitate formed (a solid product which forms from the reaction of two solutions) an obvious mass change temperature change t t h
- 16. Classification of Matter: C f f The classification of matter is based on the uniformity of the components that y p make up the substance and the characteristic properties of the p p substance. As a result, all matter can be separated into two broad p categories: pure substances or mixtures.
- 17. Pure substance: Every sample has the same properties & fixed composition Cannot b separated by simple C t be t db i l physical means; separated chemically h i ll Can be either elements or compounds Ex. Pure sucrose (C12H22O11) Pure water (H2O)
- 18. Mixture: Combination f two or more C bi ti of t substances in which the identity of each substance i not changed h b t is t h d Do not have specific combinations & do not interact with each other Ex. White sugar mixed with white sand; a tossed salad; vegetable soup
- 19. 2 Kinds of Mixtures: f 1. 1 Homogeneous mixtures are the same composition throughout. Always has a single phase phase. Another name for homogeneous mixtures is solution. Solutions may contain solids, liquids, or gases. Ex. Air, carbonated soda, stainless steel 2. Heterogeneous mixtures are not blended smoothly and individual substances remain distinct. Ex. Granite, dirt, blood
- 20. Physical S Separation: Filtration - a process of using a filter to physically separate mixtures. Ex. Using a screen to separate rocks from sand sand. Distillation - Using evaporation as a means of separating substances p g Chromatography - method of separating mixtures by adsorption Magnetism – attraction for iron associate M ti tt ti f i i t with electric current and magnets Solubility – dissolving one substance in another
