  1. Section 1.1 – 1.2 What is ChemistryClassification of Matter Bill Vining SUNY College at Oneonta

  2. In this section… • Scale of chemistry • Measuring matter • Pure matter on the macroscopic scale • Mixtures on the macroscopic scale What is ChemistryClassification of Matter

  3. Chemistry is the study of matter on the atomic/ molecular scale. Also called nanoscale. The Scale of Chemistry

  4. Macroscopic: can be seen with unaided eye. Microscopic: can only be seen with an optical microscope Atomic: too small to be seen even with optical microscope The Scale of Chemistry Examples: soccer ball: methanol molecule: sand grain: bacterium:

  5. Chemistry is the study of matter on the atomic/ molecular scale. Also called nanoscale. The Scale of Chemistry

  6. Bulk scale: Mass Attraction to magnets Atomic scale: Interaction with electromagnetic radiation-- -- VIS and UV -- IR -- Xray -- Radio + Magnetic field How We Measure Matter

  7. Key feature of chemical study: We can’t see individual atoms and molecules, so all our knowledge is implied by measurements, mostly of bulk samples. How We Measure Matter

  8. Lot’s of ways: solid, liquid, gas composition magnetism color hardness Classification of Matter

  9. As chemists, we do this on atomic scale and macroscopic scale Classification of Matter Atomic Scale: atoms vs. molecules Macroscopic Scale: elements vs. compounds

  10. Atomic Scale: atoms vs. molecules Classification of Matter Atoms

  11. Atomic Scale: atoms vs. molecules Classification of Matter Molecules: collections of atoms that are held together by chemical bonds. Atoms

  12. elements vs. compounds Classification of Matter Compound: formed when two or more elements are combined in a defined ratio Pure Element: collection of atoms of a single element

  13. Notes 1: Both elements and compounds can form molecules Classification of Matter Notes 2: Compounds can be collections of molecules, or large extended structures

  14. Notes 2: Compounds can be collections of molecules, or large extended structures Classification of Matter solid CO2; “dry ice”

  15. Pure Substances vs. Mixtures Classification of Matter Pure substance: only one type of element of compound Mixtures: multiple types of elements or compounds

  16. Physical change vs. Chemical change Classification of Change Physical change: changes the state but not the chemical composition

  17. Physical change vs. Chemical change Classification of Change Chemical change: changes the chemical composition

  18. Physical change vs. Chemical change Classification of Change Physical change: same stuff, different state Chemical change: different stuff

  19. Heterogeneous vs. Homogeneous Homogeneous mixture: composition constant throughout Heterogeneous mixture: non-uniform composition Classification of Mixtures

  20. Classification of Matter Chart Examples: filtered air: salt water: filtered water: gold bar:

  21. Classification of Matter Chart -- mixtures can be separated by physical means -- compounds can be “separated” by chemical means
