Matter

Anything that has mass and takes up space (volume)

What is NOT matter???

Classification of Matter

Matter

Can it be separated by physical means?

If yes….

Then you have a Mixture

Physical ways to separate a mixture

• Filtering

(particle size)

• Distillation

(boiling point)

(dissolved solid)

Physical ways to separate a mixture

• Chromatography

(attraction to paper)

Is the mixture uniform throughout?

• IF yes, it is HOMOGENEOUS

If no, then the mixture is Heterogeneous

YES NO

If matter can NOT be separated by physical means….

It is a SUBSTANCE

If the substance can’t be broken down, it is an ELEMENT

Elements are made of only one type of atom

Ex. Aluminum, carbon, oxygen

SUBSTANCEIf the substance CAN be broken down into 2

or more elements, it is a COMPOUND.

Compounds are made of two or more different kinds of atoms chemically bonded together.

COMPOUNDEx. Water is a compound made of the

elements Hydrogen and Oxygen.

The RATIO of elements in a compound always stay the same. In WATER the ratio is always 2 Hydrogens to 1 Oxygen, or 2:1

Did you know that……..

One of the most popular “foods” in the United States is an entirely SYNTHETIC (man-made) mixture.

Can you guess what it is?
