Physical properties • A physical property is any aspect of matter that can be measured or seen without changing the composition of the matter. • Qualitative • Odor, color, texture, state, malleability • Quantitative • Melting point, boiling point, density, mass
Physical Change • Does not change the composition of the matter - doesn't change what the substance is • In a mixture, individual components retain properties of the original mixture; e.g. dissolving salt in water • Change of state (melting, freezing, etc.) is an example of a physical change
Physical Separation • Separating a mixture based on physical properties • Involves a physical change only (not chemical) • Individual components have properties of the mixture • Examples: • Filtration • Using magnetic properties • Sedimentation, using density differences
Chemical Properties • A chemical property is any property of matter that becomes evident during a chemical reaction. • Can only be measured by changing a substance's chemical identity. • Chemical properties cannot be determined just by viewing or touching the matter.
Chemical Change • A new substance is formed and energy is either given off or absorbed • Involves energy • If heat is given off during the reaction, than the reaction is considered to be exothermic. • If heat is required for the reaction, than the reaction is considered to be endothermic. • Composition of the substance is altered • New substances are produced with properties different from the original substance • Not easily reversed
Evidence of Chemical Change • The following may indicate that a chemical change has occurred • Colour Change • Temperature Change • Odour Given Off • Precipitate is Formed • Gas Produced • Any new substance produced • Examples • Burning • Metal in acid • Electrolysis of water
Chemical Separation • Separating a substance using a chemical change • Can be used to separate compounds
