1 Matter and its Properties Read through the notes and fill out your concept map to classify matter

2 What is Matter? Matter can be defined as anything that has mass and takes up space. All matter has mass and volume. Volume is the amount of 3-D space an object occupies. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object.

3 Classification of Matter
There are 2 ways you can classify matter. Pure Substances Mixtures

4 Pure Substances Consist of elements and compounds. An element is a pure substance made of only 1 kind of atom. An atom is the smallest unit of an element that keeps the properties of that element.

5 EXAMPLES Carbon, Hydrogen, and Oxygen are all examples of individual elements. Each element specifically contains only 1 kind of atom. **This makes each element a pure substance.

6 The Compound… A compound is a substance that is made of 2 different elements that are chemically bonded. Compounds consist of molecules. Ex} Water is an example of a compound. It is made of 2 elements, hydrogen and oxygen. The atoms of Hydrogen and Oxygen are chemically bonded to form a water molecule.

7 Mixtures… A mixture is a blend of 2 or more kinds of matter, each of which retains its own identity and properties. The can be classified as: homogeneous heterogeneous

8 Homogeneous Have a uniform composition
Meaning they have the same proportion of components throughout or they are mixed evenly. Homogeneous mixtures are also known as solutions. Kool-Aid Salt water

9 Heterogeneous Are not uniform throughout..
Meaning the particles are unevenly distributed. Clay& Water Seeds

10 Heterogeneous Mixtures
Suspension heterogeneous large particles particles settle EX: fresh-squeezed lemonade, Baby medicine

11 Heterogeneous Mixtures
Colloid heterogeneous Strong Tyndall effect particles don’t settle EX: Whip Cream, Butter, Fog, milk

12 Tyndall Effect

13 Separating Mixtures Can be separated by physical means such Sorting
Filtering Boiling/Distillation Evaporation Melting Chromatography Paper Chromatography Sorting erasers Filtering- Oil

14 Separating Mixtures Distillation Set-up

15 On the Back of your Concept Map:
Define the following terms: Colloid (and list the examples) Suspension (and list the examples) Tyndall Effect Copy: “Mixtures can be separated by physical means such as:” and then list the ways… Show me for a STAMP grade when you are done
