Chapter 15 Classification of Matter
NC Goals 1, 5, & 6
NC Goals Covered
 1.03 Formulate and revise scientific explanations and models using logic and evidence to explain observations; explain the relationship between evidence and explanation  5.03 Identify Substances through the investigation of physical properties  6.04 Measure and analyze the indicators of chemical change including. Formation of a precipitate.
Composition of matter  Define substances and mixtures  Identify elements and compounds  Compare and contrast solutions, colloids, and suspensions. Properties of Matter  Identify substances using physical properties.  Compare and contrast physical and chemical changes  Identify chemical changes  Determine how the law of conservation of mass applies to chemical changes
Substance Element Compound Heterogeneous mixture Homogeneous mixture Solution Colloid Tyndall effect Suspension
Physical property Physical change Distillation Chemical property Chemical change Law of conservation of mass
Composition of matter
 Pure _________type of matter with a fixed composition  Substance: 1. element 2. compound  Helium, oxygen, water, salt
Elements
 _________substance with atoms are all alike  90 found on Earth  20 lab created (unstable short time exists)
Compound
 _________substance formed from two or more elements in which the exact combination and proportion of elements is always the same  Example: water- 2 atoms of hydrogen and one atom of oxygen  Compounds usually look different from the elements in them
Mixtures
 Mixtures  heterogeneous and homogeneous  _______________mixture in which different materials are unevenly distributed and are easily identified  ________________solid, liquid, or gas that contains two or more substances blended evenly throughout
Heterogeneous
 Granite, concrete, dry soup mix  Fabric
Homogeneous Mixtures
 Canned soda  Vinegar  ___________homogenous mixture that remains constantly and uniformly mixed and has particles that are so small they cannot be seen with microscope  Will never settle
Colloids
 ________homogeneous mixture whose particles never settle (solution quality)  Milk, gelatin, paint,  Fog (liquid), smoke (solid)  Beam of light test detects colloid  Colloid Scatters light  ________________scattering of a light beam as it passes through a colloid
Suspensions
 ___________heterogeneous mixture containing a liquid in which visible particles settle  Pond water  Settles, can be separated by filter, >100nm, scatters light

Colloid
Properties of Matter
 _______________any characteristic of a material such as size or shape, that you can observe or attempt to observe without changing the identity of the material  Color, shape, size, density, melting point, boiling point  Metals- magnetic, malleable  Liquids- ability to flow (viscosity)  Can separate items because of properties from mixtures
Physical change
 ______________any change in size, shape, or state of matter in which the identity of the substance remains the same  Freezes, boils, evaporates, or condenses ONLY physical change  Energy change but identity of element or compound the same  Example ice, liquid water and steam
Distillation
 ___________process that can separate two substances in a mixture by evaporating a liquid and a recondensing its vapor  Two liquid with different boiling temps can also be separated
Chemical properties
 _______________any characteristic of a substance such as flammability, that indicates whether it can undergo a certain change  Burn/ flammability, UV light changes  Burning, odor, (rotten egg odor)  Rust, formation of bubbles, solid in liquids (precipitate)  Rust- oxidation
_______________change of one substance into a new substance Sometimes rapid release of energy heat, light, and sound Only proof NEW substance is formed!
 Tarnish change back to silver reverse chemical reaction  Metals separated from ores then purified by chemical changes
Weathering
 ________changes freeze, crack, expand water move  ________acidic water dissolve some minerals also CO2
Conservation of Mass
 Matter can change form but not lost or gained  a + b = ab or ab= a + b  Ab + cd = a + cb +d or c + ad + b or a+ b+ c+ d or ad + cb  ________________of mass matter is neither created nor destroyed  The mass of all substances that are present before a chemical reaction equals the mass of all the substances that remain after the change
