Matter Chapter 2
Chemistry The study of matter and how it changes Matter = has mass and takes up space Simplest form of matter = Atoms Different types of atoms = elements. (they cannot be broken down)
Compounds Atoms of more than one element bound together. Ex: H 2 O, C 6 H 12 O 6, NaCl, HCl Molecule = smallest unit that exhibits all the properties of that substance Ex: H 2 O, C 6 H 12 O 6
Chemical Formulas Chem symbols and numbers tell us how many of each element is in a compound Example: The chem formula for table sugar is C 12 H 22 O 11. Each molecule contains 12 carbon atoms, 22 hydrogen atoms, and 11 oxygen atoms.
Types of Matter Pure Substance = matter with fixed composition and definite properties Mixture = Combination of more than one pure substance. Ex: Grape Juice is a mixture of pure substances such as water, sugar, vitamins, etc…
Types of Pure Substances Elements – listed on the Periodic Table Compounds – Combination of elements
Types of Mixtures Heterogeneous – subs are NOT uniformly mixed Example: mixture of flour and water Homogeneous – subs are evenly mixed (looks the same throughout) AKA Solution Example: mixture of salt and water – the salt dissolves in the water
Liquid Mixtures Miscible – liquids are able to dissolve into each other Homogeneous mixture of liquids Gasoline = homo. mixture of 100 compounds Immiscible – liquids are NOT able to dissolve into one another Heterogeneous mixture of liquids Oil and water will not mix
Buoyancy The force with which a more dense fluid pushes a less dense subs up. Ice is less dense than water.
Archimedes’ Principle 4the buoyant force on an object equals the weight of the fluid displaced by the object
Bernoulli’s Principle 4As the velocity of a fluid increases, the pressure exerted by the fluid decreases 4Explains why planes can fly
Mixtures with Gases Many gases form mixtures with other gases or liquids Ex: Air – homo. mixture of gases Ex: Soda – homo. mixture of gas and liquid Ex: Foam – mixture of gas and liquid
Kinetic Theory All matter is made up of atoms or molecules. The atoms/molecules are always in motion. More massive atoms/molecules move slower.
States of Matter Solid Liquid Gas Plasma – most common state in the universe Very fast moving charged particles Makes up stars
Solids Definite volume and shape – “Rigid” Atoms are held together with strong forces Particles vibrate in fixed position
Liquids Definite volume, indefinite shape Atoms slide past one another Viscosity = property that describes the resistance of a fluid to flow
Gases Indefinite shape and volume Atoms not very attracted to each other Free motion Exert pressure
Energy Ability to cause changes in the states of matter (phase changes) Evaporation Liquid Gas Energy is absorbed (by a liquid causing atoms to move faster until they break away from the liquid surface to form a gas.)
More Phase Changes Condensation Gas Liquid Releases energy (energy is given from the gas to the surroundings) Sublimation Solid Gas Energy is absorbed Ex: CO 2 (s) CO 2 (g) Dry Ice

Phase Change Diagrams Show the changes of state for any subs. Show the temperatures where the phase change occurs Is more energy used to convert ice to water or water to steam?
Insert phase diagram on p. 49
Heat of Fusion Amount of heat required to melt a solid at its melting point Different for every subs.
Heat of Vaporization Amount of heat needed to change a liquid into a gas at its boiling point Also different for every subs.
State Changes No change in the composition or mass of the atoms. Law of Conservation of Energy Energy cannot be created or destroyed Law of Conservation of Mass Mass cannot be created or destroyed
Properties of Gases Thermal Expansion = gas molecules become farther apart as temp increases Pressure = Force exerted per unit area of a surface Unit: atmospheres (atm) Pressure around us comes from air molecules
Boyle’s Law Relates pressure (P) and volume (V) As P increases, V decreases P 1 V 1 = P 2 V 2 Inverse relationship
Charles’s Law Relates V and temperature (T) As T increases, V increases V 1 = V 2 T 1 T 2 Direct relationship
Combined Gas Law Includes P, V, and T P 1 V 1 = P 2 V 2 T 1 T 2
Chemical Properties Methods that a subs can use to transform into a new subs with different properties Reactivity = ability of one subs to combine with another subs Ex: flammability, corrosiveness, rusting, explosiveness,
Physical Properties Characteristic of a subs that can be observed without changing the subs Ex: Melting point (s l) Boiling point (l g)
Density Physical property The amount of mass in a certain volume D = m/V Units = g/mL or g/cm 3
Chemical Changes Change that occurs to form a new subs. (product has a different composition.) Ex: Digesting food, steel rusting, food burning, gasoline combusting, milk souring
Signs a Chemical Change Occurred Odor Color change Gas produced (bubbles) Solid produced Temperature change (hot or cold)
Physical Changes Change that does NOT alter the composition of the subs. Melting chocolate, freezing water, tearing paper, chopping food, dissolving sugar Dissolving = water molecules surround the other molecules and spread them out evenly.
