2. Physical and Chemical Changes

3. Matter  Matter is everywhere.  Matter is anything that takes up space and has mass.  Matter is constantly experiencing both chemical and physical changes.

4. Introduction  There are two types of properties of matter, they are physical properties and chemical properties.  There are also two types of changes in matter they are physical changes and chemical changes.  Let’s talk about physical properties first.

5. Physical Properties  A physical property is any characteristic of a material that one can observe easily without changing the substances that make up the material.  Every substance has physical properties that distinguish it from other substances.

6. Physical Properties  Physical property examples…  shape  Size  Color  Smell  Temperature  Volume  Density  melting point  boiling point  state of matter.

7. Physical Changes  A change in physical properties is called a physical change.  Physical changes do not alter the identity of a substance.  Pounding, pulling, cutting, dissolving, melting, or boiling do not produce a new substance with new properties, so they are all physical changes.

8. Physical Change

9. Physical Change Example  For example if you take a piece of paper and tear it into pieces you still have paper. It may be smaller, but it’s still paper.  You could dye the paper and make it another color, but it’s still paper.  You have only changed it physically.

10. Physical Changes of Water Freezing-liquid to a solid; this change requires cooling Melting-solid to a liquid: this change is speeded up by heating. Condensation-gases change to a liquid; this change requires cooling. Vaporization/Evaporation-liquid changes to gas; this change is speeded up by heating. Sublimation- a solid changes to a gas without passing through the liquid state (e.g., dry ice, solid to gas)

11. What Do You Think?  Can you name this physical change of water?  Here’s a hint: The water is changing from the gas to the liquid phase.

13. Chemical Change  Chemical changes are changes matter undergoes when it becomes new or different matter.  To identify a chemical change look for signs such as color change, bubbling and fizzing, light production, smoke, and presence of heat.

14. Chemical Properties/Changes  Substances can change their identities, for example, fireworks explode,

15. Chemical Properties/Changes  matches burn

16. Chemical Properties/Changes  Food cooks

17. Chemical Properties/Changes  And iron rusts

18. Chemical Properties/Changes  Burned toast, burned soup, and burned steak all smell burned. The smell is different from the smell of bread, soup, or steak.  The odor is a clue that a new substance has been produced.

19. Chemical Change  A change of one substance in a material to a different substance is a chemical change.  In some chemical changes a rapid production of energy, such as the production of heat, light, sound or gas bubbles occur. These things indicate that a chemical change has occurred.  Burning and rusting are chemical changes because different substances are produced.

20. Chemical Change  A baked cake no longer resembles its ingredients of flour, eggs, butter, and sugar, because the reactants have undergone a chemical change.  A chemical reaction is simply breaking substances (reactants) apart and making new ones (products) from the pieces. reactants product

21. Chemical Reactions  Those ingredients have been changed by a chemical reaction.  A chemical reaction is simply breaking substances (reactants) apart and making new substances (products) from the pieces.

22. Chemical Reactions  Whenever a chemical reaction takes place, new substances, the products, are made.  These have very different properties from the original starting materials, the reactants. reactant + reactant = product
