S8P1d Physical and Chemical Properties: Density, melting point, boiling point and reactivity, combustibility.

Physical Properties A characteristic of a pure substance that can be observed without changing it into another substance. Example – when water freezes at a temperature of 0 degrees Celsius, it changes to a solid called ice but it is still water. The properties do not change. Characteristics of physical properties – Hardness, Texture, Color, or if the substance is solid, liquid, gas, or plasma.

Chemical Properties A characteristic of a pure substance that describes its ability to change into a different substance. To observe the chemical properties you must try to change it into a different substance. Example: Methane (natural gas) can burn while in the air. While burning it is combining with oxygen in the air forming new substances, water and carbon dioxide.

Viscosity A property of liquid – this is a liquids resistance to flowing.

Melting Point The temperature at which a solid substance melts or fuses.

Boiling Point The temperature at which a given material changes from a liquid to a gas. The boiling point is the same temperature as the condensation point. (See phases of matter.) Note: Water boils at 212 degrees Fahrenheit or 100 degrees Celsius.

Condensation Water that collects as droplets on a cold surface when humid air is in contact with it. The conversion of a vapor or gas to a liquid.

Vaporization Vaporization is the way molecules change from a solid or liquid to a gas. For vaporization to happen, heat is necessary. Heat is energy. Some liquids change to a vapor at room temperature by pulling heat from the environment. Vapor

Density A material's density is defined as its mass per unit volume. The Density Calculator uses the formula that density (d) is equal to mass (M) divided by volume (V) or p=M/V.

Acid A chemical substance that neutralizes alkalis, dissolves some metals, and turns litmus red; typically, a corrosive or sour-tasting liquid of this kind. A molecule or other entity that can donate a proton or accept an electron pair in reactions.

Base Any of a class of compounds that form hydroxyl ions (OH) when dissolved in water, and whose aqueous solutions react with acids to form salts. Bases turn red litmus paper blue and have a pH greater than 7. Their aqueous solutions have a bitter taste and feel slippery.
