Matter Matter is the “stuff” of which the universe is composed. Two characteristics: has mass and occupies space.
Atoms Can we see atoms? Scanning Tunneling Microscope Matter is composed of tiny particles called atoms. A scanning tunneling microscope image of 5 nm gold nanoparticles staff/DHIRANI/
Compound vs Molecules A molecule is formed when two or more atoms join together chemically. A compound is a molecule that contains at least two different elements. All compounds are molecules but not all molecules are compounds.
Each unit is a molecule
Molecules Molecular hydrogen (H 2 ), and molecular oxygen (O 2 ) are molecules because each is composed of a single element. Water (H 2 O), carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) and methane (CH 4 ) are compounds because each is made from more than one element. The smallest bit of each of these substances would be referred to as a molecule.
Compounds Atoms of different elements can join together by chemical bonds to form a compound A compound has totally different properties from its elements

Mixtures A mixture is a substance made by combining two or more different materials in such a way that no chemical reaction occurs. A mixture can usually be separated back into its original components. What are examples of mixtures?
Prefixes Homo: Greek = Same Latin = Human Hetero: Greek = Mixed What words using these prefixes come to mind?
Mixtures Homogenous Mixture: the particles are mixed so well that the separate parts cannot be seen (Salt Water) Heterogenous Mixture: the different parts can be easily seen (Salt and Pepper)
