Matter
Matter – anything that has mass and volume.
Mass – the amount of material that makes an
object
Volume – the amount of space an object takes
up
Your textbooks?
Light from
a
lighthouse?
The pen/pencil you
are writing with?
Your thoughts?
Heat from
a fire?
Properties of Matter
Physical Property - a quality or condition of matter
that can be observed or measured without changing
the arrangement of atoms that make it
These properties can usually be observed using our
senses or measured with equipment in the lab.
Chemical Properties – property that can only be
observed when the arrangement of particles that
make the matter are altered
These properties usually tell you how a substance will
react in the presence of a second substance.
Changes in Matter
Physical Changes – changes in matter that do not alter the
arrangement of atoms that make the matter
Changes in size, shape, and STATE OF MATTER.
Chemical Changes - changes in matter that DO alter the
arrangement of atoms that make the matter
Because you can’t see the particles to determine if arrangement
has changes, you can look for clues that tell you a chemical
change has occurred.
Clues of a Chemical Change:
1. color change
2. production of a solid
3. production of a gas
4. release of heat, light, or sparks
Identify the following as either a physical property
or a chemical property.
Property
Physical
a shirt is red
√
sodium is so soft it can be
cut with a knife
√
Chemical
potassium reacts vigorously
with water
√
paper is flammable
√
water boils at 100 oC
√
Identify the following as either a physical change or
a chemical change.

Intensive vs. Extensive

Intensive properties are properties unique
to a pure substance. It is a property that
can be used to identify it.
Ex: Density, boiling point, melting point, odor

Extensive properties are properties that
many kinds of substances can have and will
not identify the substance.
Ex: Mass, volume, shape
Now that we can describe matter,
we can begin to classify it
Matter-anything with mass and volume
Matter is separated into two categories: pure
substances and mixtures.
Matter
Mixtures
Pure
Substance
Pure Substance – a substance made of the
same kind of atoms or compounds having a
unique set of chemical and physical
properties
The two categories of pure substances are
elements and compounds
Pure Substance


simplest type of pure substance
made of only 1 kind of atom
Examples:
Hydrogen (H2)
Diatomic
molecules are still
Oxygen (O2)
elements.
H. BrONClIF
Carbon (C)
all particles are identical
cannot be separated by a physical or a
chemical change
Compounds
 made of two or more different kinds of
elements chemically combined together
in a specific ratio
Examples:
H2O - Water
H2O2 - Hydrogen
Peroxide
NH3 - Ammonia
 elements in a compound can only be
broken apart by a chemical change
Try to sketch what a molecular view of
atoms and compounds may look like
Element
Compound
Classify the following as either an
element or a compound.
Mixtures
physical blend of two or more pure
substances.
 can be separated by a physical change
The two categories of mixtures are
homogeneous and heterogeneous.

Mixtures
Homogeneous
Mixtures
Heterogeneous
Mixtures
Homogeneous Mixtures
 mixtures that are uniform in composition on the
atomic level.
 all parts of the mixture have the same
concentration of matter.
 Different parts of the mixture can not be
identified (transparent appearance for solutions)
 Alloys: solution of metal
 also called a solution
Examples:
Salt water, vinegar
Lemonade, alcohol
3% H2O2 and H2O solution
Steel, solder or 14 K gold
Heterogeneous Mixtures
 mixtures that are not uniform in
composition
 all parts of the mixture are not the same
 the different parts can usually be easily
identified from one another
Examples:
rocks and sand
salt and pepper
oil and water
Pizza
Tyndall Effect

If you shine a flashlight through a
jar of a translucent colloid, the
particles scatter the light, making
the beam visible.
Ex. Fog is an example
of a colloid.
This is why you
can see headlights
on a foggy day.


You can use the Tyndall effect to
see if your mixture is
heterogeneous or homogeneous

If you can see
the beam its
heterogeneous, if
you can’t it is a
true solution or
homogeneous

Mixture
Classify the following as either a
homogeneous mixture or a
heterogeneous mixture.
Classify the following everyday
common objects as a homogeneous
mixture or a heterogeneous mixture.

Separating Mixtures
Mixtures
are physical blends of two or
more pure substances.
Since
they are mixed physically, they can
be separated into the individual pure
substances by physical changes.
Methods of Separating Mixtures
using: Freezing and Boiling Example: Separate
Points
alcohol and water
Distillation - method of separating components of a solution
using their boiling points.
•
involves 3 stages and both are state of matter changes
(1) The solution is boiled to
vaporize one component
of the solution with the
lower boiling point.
(2) As soon as the temperature
starts to rise, the vapor
stops being collected since
this rise in temperature
indicates the end of a phase
change.
(3) The vapor is cooled to
turn it back into a liquid
Solubility

3.
Example: Separate sand and salt.
Dissolve substance that is soluble in
water.
Filtration - uses a filter of porous material
to separate a mixture of liquid and
insoluble components
Evaporate the liquid portion of a solution
which changes to a gas or vapor leaving a
solid behind
Magnetism - used to separate components of a
mixture when one is attracted to a magnet and
one is not
Chromatography - method of separation used to
see what colors make up an ink or substance
containing different molecules.
Steps of Chromatography
1. Material to be separated
is spotted on
chromatography paper
2. Paper is dipped into a
solution that will be
absorbed by the paper
and moves up
3. Some colors move more
than others and separate
