Matter Matter Mass Anything that has mass and takes up space The amount of substance in an object
Atom at a Glance The atom is the smallest particle of matter
Particles in the Atom Inside the nucleus Surrounding the nucleus Electrons-negative charge (e-) Inside the nucleus Protons-positive charge(p+) Neutrons-neutral charge
Particles in the Atom The number of protons is equal to the number of electrons in a neutral atom
Properties of Matter Hard or soft Flammable or non flammable Hot or cold Rough or smooth
Hard or Soft
How do atoms exist? Diatomic molecules Chlorine, Nitrogen, Oxygen, Fluorine, Hydrogen Alone or in pairs Diatomic molecules are two like atoms of the same element that will occur in pairs naturally
Types of Matter ELEMENTS COMPOUNDS MIXTURES Combination of one or more like atoms A substance that cannot be decomposed by a chemical change Combination of two or more elements joined to form a “new substance” whose properties are different from the individual elements A substance that can decompose into elements or compounds or both Combination of two or more substances that can be separated by physical means(stirred together but not chemically combined)
A Closer Look
Classification of Matter
Types of Mixtures Heterogeneous Homogeneous
HOMOGENEOUS Homogeneous Substances are evenly mixed Homogeneous Substances are evenly mixed The particles are so small that they cannot be seen even with a microscope (1nm = 10-9) Never settle; remain constantly and uniformly mixed
HETEROGENEOUS Heterogeneous Substances are unevenly mixed and the different materials can be easily distinguished
Heterogeneous vs. Homogeneous
COLLOIDS & SUSPENSIONS Colloid is a heterogeneous mixture The particles will scatter light which is called the Tyndall Effect Suspension is a heterogeneous mixture containing a liquid with visible particles that settle
Changes in Matter
Physical Changes Changes in the form or appearance w/o making the substance a new substance. Ex chop wood, bend wire, melt ice All changes in the states of matter Solid Liquid Gas
Chemical Changes Changes that occur from the rearrangement of atoms into new combinations. Ex iron rusting, gasoline burning in a car engine
Representing Compounds Chemical symbol- 1-2 letters representing an element Chemical formula-ratio of elements in a compound
Mass The amount of matter an object contains SI unit is the kilogram 90 lbs = 40kg 1000g=1kg Nickel = 5 grams Baseball= 150 grams Med. Glass of water=200grams
Volume Volume is the amount of space matter occupies Volume Volume is the amount of space matter occupies. Solids, liquids, and gases all have volume
Density The amount of mass contained in a given volume Density = Mass D= M V SI Units g/cm3 for Solids g/ml for liquids
Sample Problem Calculations Volume = 25 cm3 D= m/v Mass = 20 g 20 grams = 0.8 g/cm3 25cm3
Solid Volume Solid volume= length x width x height (cm3) 100cm = 1m 1m3= 100cm x 100cm x 100 cm See page 28 for Common Conversion 1000ml = 1L
