Indicator 7-5 The Chemical Nature of Matter The student will demonstrate an understanding of the classifications and properties of matter and the changes that matter undergoes. (Physical Science) Standard Recognize that matter is composed of extremely small particles called atoms. Standard Classify matter as element, compound, or mixture on the basis of its composition.
Atoms- All matter is composed of extremely small particles, too small to be seen with a classroom microscope.
Elements - are pure substances that cannot be changed into simpler substances Elements are composed of one kind of atom. Examples: O-Oxygen H-Hydrogen Cl-Chlorine Na-Sodium N-nitrogen C-Carbon
Compounds -are pure substances that are composed of two or more types of elements that are chemically combined. Examples CO2- Carbon Dioxide NaCl- Sodium Chloride H2O- Water
Mixtures- are composed of two or more different substances that retain their own individual properties and are combined physically (mixed together). Examples Trail Mix Munches Chips Snickers Lucky Charms
homogeneous mixture, a mixture that is uniform throughout, the substances are evenly mixed and cannot be visibly distinguished. The particles of the substances are so small that they cannot be easily seen. Another name for a homogeneous mixture is a solution. Example Kool-aide Tea
heterogeneous mixture a mixture that is not uniform throughout, the component substances can be visibly distinguished. Trail Mix Oil and Water
It is essential for students to know that matter is composed of extremely small particles, too small to be seen with a classroom microscope, called atoms. Atoms are the smallest part of an element that has the chemical properties of the element. A single atom has mass and takes up space.

TLWBAT; Translate chemical symbols and chemical formulas of common substances listed above to show the component parts Recognize the chemical symbols and formulas of common substances Recall the components of a chemical.
Chemical symbols Chemical formulas Subscripts
It is essential to know that chemical symbols show the atoms of the elements composing a substance. Elements Symbol is found in the periodic table of elements.
Symbols are written with one, two, or three letters. The first letter is always capitalized. Each element has a different symbol. For Example: ElementSymbol SodiumNa ChlorineCL HydrogenH OxygenO CarbonC NitrogenN
Elements are made up of one kind of atom and the symbol for each element is unique. Compounds are composed of more than one element and their formulas have more than one type of symbol showing the different elements that compose the compound.
Compounds
Chemical formulas are constructed from the symbols of the elements composing the substances. For instance: H 2 + O = H 2 O In a chemical formula, the numbers as subscripts show how many of each kind of atom are in the compound. For instance: H 2 + O = H 2 O There are 2 hydrogen elements and 1 oxygen element
The subscript is written to the lower right of the element symbol. H 2 O If no subscript is written, only one atom of that element is part of the compound. For example, in H 2 O, the number 2 is the subscript for hydrogen and means that there are 2 atoms of hydrogen in the compound of water; since there is no subscript for oxygen it is assumed to be one atom of oxygen.
1. Chemical formulas are written in a certain way. What are the three basic rules for writing a chemical formula? 2. Describe the difference between an Element and a Compound. 3. Explain the manner in which a chemical formula is written: 4. Tell where you would write a subscript and what is the purpose of a subscript. 5. When a Chemical formula is written without the use of subscripts, what does this mean?
Identify the reactants and products in chemical equations.
Identify reactants and products in chemical equations recall the characteristics of reactants and products in a chemical reaction recognize the component parts of a chemical equation.
It is essential for students to know that when a substance is broken apart or when substances are combined and at least one new substance is formed, a chemical reaction has occurred.
Chemical reaction Chemical equation
Used to represent a chemical reaction that has occurred. Contains the chemical names or the chemical formulas of the substances that are involved in the reaction. An arrow is used to distinguish between the substances that are broken apart or combined from the substances that are formed in the reaction. The arrow can be translated as “yields” or “makes.”
Substances broken apart or combined in a chemical reaction. located on the left side of the arrow.
New substances formed in a chemical reaction. Products are located on the right side of the arrow.

The objective of this indicator is to explain how a balanced equation supports the law of conservation of matter; therefore the primary focus of assessment should be to construct a cause-and-effect model of how the number of atoms of elements on reactant side of the equation must equal the number of atoms of elements on the product side of the equation.
Recall the law of conservation of matter; Recognize whether or not a chemical equation is balanced or not Identify the coefficient in a chemical equation Summarize how the law of conservation of matter relates to a balanced equation.
Coefficient Law of conservation of matter Balanced chemical equation
It is essential to know that 1. the amount of matter does not change during a chemical reaction 2. the atoms are rearranged to form new substances.
The law of conservation of matter states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed, but can be changed in form.
Because matter is neither created nor destroyed, the total mass of the material(s) before the reaction is the same as the total mass of material(s) after the reaction.
A balanced chemical equation has the same number of each kind of atom on the reactant side as on the product side.
To determine whether a chemical equation is balanced, two numbers are considered: 1. the subscript and 2. the coefficient.
A coefficient is the number that comes before the chemical formula and indicates the number of particles that participate in the reaction.
In order to determine whether an equation is balanced multiply the number in front of the chemical formula in the equation (coefficient) by the number written below the symbol for the element(s) (subscript) in the formula. If no coefficient is written, mulitiply by by one.
For instance, for “2H 2 O” there are 4 hydrogen atoms and 2 oxygen atoms. 2 (coefficient) X 2 (subscript) =4 Hydrogen 2 (coefficient) X 1 (subscript) = 2 oxygen
The number of each kind of atom on the left side of the arrow must equal the number of each kind of atom on the right side of the arrow then the equation is said to be balanced.
Compare physical properties of matter (including melting or boiling point, density, and color) to the chemical property of reactivity with a certain substance (including the ability to burn or to rust).
The objective of this indicator is to compare physical properties to chemical properties of matter and to determine the similarities and differences between physical and chemical properties of matter.
Physical properties Melting Point Boiling Point Density Chemical properties Rusting Burning
It is essential to know that physical and chemical properties can be used to identify substances.
Physical properties can be observed and measured without changing the kind of matter being studied.
The following physical properties can be used to help identify a substance: Melting Point Boiling Point Density Color
The temperature at which a solid changes to a liquid. The temperature at which a pure substance melts is unchanging under constant conditions.
The melting point of a pure substance can be used as a physical property for identification. Example Ice melts to form liquid water at 0 0 C (32 o F).
The temperature at which a liquid boils. During the process of boiling a substance changes from a liquid to a gas. As long as the substance is boiling the temperature of the liquid remains constant (at the boiling point).
Boiling point is unchanging under constant conditions for a given substance and therefore can be used as a physical property for identification of the substance. Example: The boiling point for pure water at sea level is 100 o C or 212 o F.
Density is a property that describes the relationship between the mass of a material and its volume. Substances that are denser contain more matter in a given volume.
The density of a substance will stay the same no matter how large or small the sample of the substance, and therefore, density can be used as a physical property for identification of the substance.
Example lead is a heavy and dense metal. The density of lead is much greater than the density of the very light metal like aluminum.
Color can be used to help identify a substance, along with other properties. By itself color is not a significant identifier of a substance. Transparency is the absence of color.
A chemical property of one substance usually involves its ability to react (combine) or not react with another specific substance.
Flammability is the ability of a substance to burn that involves reacting quickly with oxygen to produce light and heat.
Rusting is -the ability of a substance to rust is a chemical property that involves a substance reacting slowly with oxygen.
If a substance reacts with vinegar, it makes a new substance………………. If it does not react, you will have vinegar and that substance separate from one another.
Example: Mixing the elements Copper (Cu) and Tin (Sn) to make Brass. A Chemical Change transforms one type of matter into another kind, which may have different properties.
Example Taking a sheet of Paper and cutting it into small pieces. A Physical change is a change in which the identity of the substance does NOT change.
