What are substances & mixtures How to identify elements & compounds The difference between solutions,

colloids, & suspensions


Properties of materials can be used to classify them into categories.



Materials are either pure substances or a mixture of substances.




A substance is a type of matter that is always made of the same thing(s).




A substance is a type of matter that is always made of the same thing(s).

Substances are either an element or a compound.


A substance is an element if all the atoms in it are the same.

About 90 elements are found on Earth; another 20+ have been made in laboratories but are unstable.


A Compound is a substance with two or more elements that are combined in a fixed proportion.



Water is made of elements hydrogen & oxygen in a 2:1 proportion.



Water is made of elements hydrogen & oxygen in a 2:1 proportion.

A molecule is the smallest particle of a compound that has all the properties of the compound.


Chalk contains calcium, carbon, and oxygen in a 1:1:3 ratio in each molecule.


Chalk contains calcium, carbon, and oxygen in a 1:1:3 ratio in each molecule.

Elements combined in compounds often look very different; for example, silvery metallic sodium and the greenish-yellow poisonous gas chlorine combine to make sodium chloride or table salt (NaCl).


A mixture is a material made up of two or more substances that can be easily separated.



In a heterogeneous mixture different materials can be identified easily.



In a heterogeneous mixture different materials can be identified easily.

Granite, pizza and concrete are some examples of heterogeneous mixtures. Also, permanent press fabric of polyester and cotton (microscope)…


A homogeneous mixture contains two or more substances blended evenly throughout so that you can’t see different substances in it.


A homogeneous mixture contains two or more substances blended evenly throughout so that you can’t see different substances in it.

Examples include soft drinks in an unopened bottle; however, it becomes heterogeneous when you pour it and the carbon dioxide escapes as bubbles


Vinegar is another homogeneous mixture which contains acetic acid mixed with water.



Homogeneous mixtures such as soft drinks and vinegar are also called solutions.



Homogeneous mixtures such as soft drinks & vinegar are also called solutions.

A solution is a homogeneous mixture of particles so small that they cannot be seen with a microscope & will not settle to the bottom of their container.


Solutions stay constantly and evenly mixed.

A colloid is a special type mixture with particles that are larger than those in solutions, but not heavy enough to settle to the bottom of their container.



Milk contains water, fat & proteins in different proportions with large particles.



Milk contains water, fat & proteins in different proportions with large particles.

Paint is a liquid colloid; fog is a gas colloid; smoke is solids suspended in air.


Do colloids and solutions look the same?

Fog looks white because its particles are large enough to scatter light.

Some shampoos & gelatins are colloids called gels that look almost clear.

Do colloids and solutions look the same?

Fog looks white because its particles are large enough to scatter light.

Some shampoos & gelatins are colloids called gels that look almost clear.

You identify colloids by shining a beam of light through it: you cannot see it in a solution but you can see it in a colloid because the large particles scatter light (Tyndall effect).

What are suspensions?

Some mixtures are neither solutions nor colloids, for example, muddy pond water.

A suspension is a heterogeneous mixture containing a liquid in which you can see particles settle.

Rivers are natural examples of suspension; moving quickly through narrow channels they pick up soil which then settles out when the water slows.

Properties of Matter

Chp 15 Section 2


To identify substances using physical properties

Differences between physical and chemical changes

How to identify chemical changes The law of conservation of mass


A physical property is a feature or characteristic that describes an object or substance such as color, shape, size, density, melting point & boiling point.


A physical property is a feature or characteristic that describes an object or substance such as color, shape, size, density, melting point & boiling point.

Some physical properties describe behavior of material such as magnetic, easily bent, malleable, flows easily, viscous (thick liquid).


Physical properties can be used to separate materials: Sifting in gem mining Magnetism to

separate metal Seeds from fruit

Physical Change

When a substance freezes, boils, evaporates, or condenses, it undergoes a physical change.

Physical Change

When a substance freezes, boils, evaporates, or condenses, it undergoes a physical change.

A physical change is a change in size, shape or state of matter. Heat might be added or removed but other properties never change like density, specific heat, boiling point and melting point.

What is distillation?

Distillation is the process of separating substances in a mixture by evaporating a liquid & condensing its vapor.

What is distillation?

Distillation is the process of separating substances in a mixture by evaporating a liquid & condensing its vapor.

The liquid is heated and its vapor is cooled until it condenses. A solid material is left behind. Salt water can be made into drinking water this way.

Distillation (continued)

Liquids with different boiling points can be distilled. Vapors of the liquid with the lowest boiling point form first & are collected. As the temperature increases the second liquid boils, condenses & is collected.

Natural oils such as mint are distilled.

Chemical Properties & Changes

A chemical property is a characteristic of a substance that indicates whether it can undergo a change that results in a new substance. When a substance burns, there is a chemical change.

Flammability is a chemical property


A chemical change results in a new substance indicated by be smell, rust, heat, light, or sound.

Burning and rusting are chemical changes because new substances are formed.


You can separate substances using a chemical change.

Example: cleaning tarnish (silver sulfide) off silver with another chemical reaction using warm water, baking soda, and aluminum foil.


Weathering shapes Earth’s surface Rocks split, rivers carve deep canyons,

sand dunes shift, and interesting formations develop in caves.

Are these changes physical or chemical?

The most common types of chemical weathering are oxidation, hydrolysis and carbonation.

Limestone which is mostly calcium carbonate dissolves in slightly acidic water to create caves and rock formations.

Law of Conservation of Mass

The mass of all substances that are present before a chemical change equals the mass of all substances that remain after the change.

Law of Conservation of Mass

The mass of all substances that are present before a chemical change equals the mass of all substances that remain after the change.

When a log burns, you see smoke and light, feel heat, and note a change in appearance indicating a chemical change is taking place.

Calculate

If a 2-kg log is burned, what is the mass of the ash, smoke, and carbon dioxide produced by the chemical change?

Calculate

If a 2-kg log is burned, what is the mass of the ash, smoke, and carbon dioxide produced by the chemical change?

According to the Law of Conservation of Mass, the mass of everything left would be 2-kg.
