Matter & Change Notes

Terms to Know A.Chemistry- The study of MATTER and the CHANGES it undergoes.

Terms to Know B. Mass- a measure of the amount of matter. C. Matter –anything that takes up space and has mass.

Terms to Know Three phases of matter: solid – has definite shape and definite volume liquid – NO definite shape; definite volume gas – NO definite shape; NO definite volume

Wait a minute! I have heard of a 4 th state matter- Plasma Plasmas are a lot like gases, but the atoms are different because they are made up of free electrons and ions of the element. Plasmas are a high-temperature state of matter in which atoms lose their electrons. Not naturally found on earth

Terms to Know D. Atom– the SMALLEST particle of an element that retains the chemical properties of the element E. Element- a pure substance made of ONLY ONE kind of atom from the P. T. (ex: C, N, O)

Terms to Know F. Compound- composed of 2 OR MORE elements from the P. T. in a fixed ratio –properties differ from those of individual elements EX: table salt (NaCl)

Terms to Know G. Law of Definite Composition – the elemental composition of a pure compound is always the same regardless of where or how it is prepared. Consider the compound water: H 2 O –There are always 2 Hydrogen atoms for every 1 Oxygen atom, never 3 Hydrogens for every 1 Oxygen… then it wouldn’t be water!

II. Properties and Changes in Matter A. Physical Properties of Matter characteristics which allow us to recognize and distinguish it from another substance WITHOUT changing the substance! –Examples of physical properties are color, odor, density, melting and boiling points and its physical state (solid, liquid, gas)

A. Properties and Changes in Matter Intensive property – does NOT depend on amount of substance present; is constant, examples are density, melting or freezing points, heat capacity, solubility Extensive property – DOES depend on amount of matter present. Ex: mass, volume

Learning Check Are the following examples intensive or extensive properties? Examples: 1. Boiling point 2. Melting point 3. color 4. Odor strength 5. mass intensive extensive

II. Properties and Changes in Matter B. Physical Changes of matter– do not involve the creation of a new substance. Ex: grinding; the physical state of a substance is changed.

II. Properties and Changes in Matter Know these 6 phase changes: –Melting: Solid to liquid –Evaporation/Boiling: liquid to gas –Condensation: gas to liquid –Freezing: liquid to solid –Sublimation: solid to gas –Deposition: gas to solid

Any change in state is a physical change…

A physical change is usually REVERSIBLE!!!

II.Properties and Changes in Matter C. Chemical Properties – the manner in which a substance reacts with another substance to make a NEW substance! Ex: hydrogen and oxygen gases react to form water where hydrogen and oxygen are the reactants and water is the product.

Write this down! H 2 + O 2  H 2 O Reactants Products

D. Chemical Changes of Matter Involves changing one substance into a NEW substance: cannot get the original substance back: burning, fermentation, cooking a steak, etc. A chemical change is a chemical reaction.

5 Signs of a Chemical Reaction There are five indicators that a chemical reaction has taken place. They are… 1.Color change 2.Temp. change 3.Gas. 4.Appearance of a precipitate (solid) 5.Light.

II. Properties and Changes in Matter 1. Reactants: to the LEFT of the arrow 2.Products: to the RIGHT of the arrow Mg + 2 HCl  MgCl 2 + H 2 Reactants products

Learning Check Are the following examples physical or chemical properties? Examples: 1. rusting iron 2. dissolving in water 3. burning a log 4. melting ice 5. grinding spices chemical physical chemical physical

Card Sort Go to the next blank page in your journal. It should be titled “Examples of Physical and Chemical Changes”. Make a T Chart with the titles of Physical on one side and Chemical on the other. Copy the information on the next two slides in the appropriate column.

Physical/ Chemical Changes Physical Changes Does NOT produce a new substance Is REVERSIBLE Chemical Changes Produces a new substance Is NOT reversible

Physical/Chemical Properties Physical Properties Does NOT require altering the material Does NOT require a chemical change Chemical Properties Requires altering the material Requires a chemical change
