Chapter 2 “Matter and Change”

Chapter 2 “Matter and Change”. Matter. Matter is anything that: a) has mass, and b) takes up space Mass is a measure of the amount of “stuff” (or material) the object contains (don’t confuse this with weight, a measure of gravity) Volume is a measure of the space occupied by the object.

  1. Chapter 2“Matter and Change”

  2. Matter • Matter is anything that: a) has mass, and b) takes up space • Mass is a measure of the amount of “stuff” (or material) the object contains (don’t confuse this with weight, a measure of gravity) • Volume is a measure of the space occupied by the object

  3. Describing Matter • Properties used to describe matter can be classified as: • Extensive – depends on the amount of matter in the sample - Mass, volume, calories are examples • Intensive – depends on the type of matter, not the amount present - Hardness, Density, Boiling Point

  4. Properties are… • Words that describe matter (adjectives) • Physical Properties- a property that can be observed and measured without changing the material’s composition. • Examples- color, hardness, m.p., b.p. • Chemical Properties- a property that can only be observed by changing the composition of the material. • Examples- ability to burn, decompose, ferment, react with, etc.

  5. States of matter • Solid- matter that can not flow (definite shape) and has definite volume. • Liquid- definite volume but takes the shape of its container (flows). • Gas- a substance without definite volume or shape and can flow. • Vapor- a substance that is currently a gas, but normally is a liquid or solid at room temperature. (Which is correct: “water gas”, or “water vapor”?)

  6. States of Matter Result of a Temperature Increase? Definite Volume? Definite Shape? Will it Compress? Small Expansion Solid YES YES NO Small Expansion Liquid NO NO YES Large Expansion Gas NO NO YES

  7. 4th state:Plasma - formed at high temperatures; ionized phase of matter as found in the sun

  8. Condense Freeze Evaporate Melt Gas Liquid Solid

  9. Physical vs. Chemical Change • Physical change will change the visible appearance, without changing the composition of the material. • Boil, melt, cut, bend, split, crack • Chemical change - a change where a new form of matter is formed. • Rust, burn, decompose, ferment

  10. Mixtures • Mixtures are a physical blend of at least two substances and they have variable composition. Two types: • Heterogeneous – this mixture is not uniform in composition • Chocolate chip cookie, gravel, soil. • Homogeneous - same composition throughout; called “solutions” • Kool-aid, air, salt water • Every part keeps it’s own properties.

  11. Phase? • The term “phase” is used to describe any part of a sample with uniform composition of properties. • A homogeneous mixture consists of a single phase • A heterogeneous mixture consists of two or more phases.

  12. Separating Mixtures • Differences in physical properties can be used to separate mixtures. • Filtration - separates a solid from the liquid in a heterogeneous mixture (by size)

  13. Components of dyes such as ink may be separated bypaper chromatography using the property of solubility. Separation of a Mixture

  14. Separation of a Mixture Distillation:takes advantage of different boiling points. NaCl boils at 1415 oC

  15. Pure Substances Pure Substancesare either: a) elements, or b) compounds

  16. Elements • Elements- simplest kind of matter • cannot be broken down any simpler and still have properties of that element! • elements are all one kind of atom. Examples: carbon (C), hydrogen (H)

  17. Compounds • Compounds are substances that can be broken down only by chemical means • when broken down, the pieces have completely different properties than the original compound. • made of two or more atoms, chemically combined (not just a physical blend!) Examples: water (H2O), carbon dioxide (CO2)

  18. Made of one kind of material Made of more than one kind of material Made by a chemical change Made by a physical change Definite composition Variable composition Compound vs. Mixture Compound Mixture

  19. A mixture or compound? Which is it?

  20. Elements vs. Compounds • Compounds can be broken down into simpler substances by a chemical change, but elements cannot be broken down into a simpler substance. (subatomic particles are not substances)

  21. Properties of Compounds • Compounds have different properties than their component elements. • Table sugar (C12H22O11); carbon is a black solid, hydrogen is a odorless gas, and oxygen is a colorless, flammable gas. • Sodium chloride (NaCl); sodium is a soft solid and chlorine is a green, toxic gas

  22. Classification of Matter

  23. Symbols & Formulas • Elements are represented using a 1 or two letter symbol, and compounds are represented by formulas. • An element’s first letter always capitalized; if there is a second letter, it is written lowercase: C, Ca, H, He

  24. Chemical Reactions are… • One or more substances are changed into new substances. • Reactants – what you start with • Products- what you make • The products will have NEW PROPERTIES different from the reactants

  25. Recognizing Chemical Changes • Energy is absorbed or released (temperature changes hotter or colder) • Color changes • Gas production (bubbling, fizzing, or odor change; smoke) • Formation of aprecipitate- a solid that separates from solution (won’t dissolve)

  26. Law of Conservation of Mass • During any chemical reaction, the mass of the products always equal the mass of the reactants. • Mass is neither created or destroyed during a chemical reaction.

  27. 43.43 g Original mass = 43.43 g Final mass reactants = product
