Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B : Matter Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space Matter does not include any form of energy, such as light, heat, and sound. Many substances have been classified according their physical and chemical properties
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 2 Properties of Matter A physical property is a property that describes the physical appearance and composition of a substance. A chemical property is a property that describes the ability of a substance to change into a new substance or substances. Check table 4.1 & 4.2 Pg 142
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 3 Pure Substances and Mixtures All forms of matter can be classified as either a pure substance or a mixture, based on their physical and chemical properties.
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 4 A pure substance made up of only one kind of matter. has a unique set of properties, such as colour, hardness, melting point, and conductivity. A pure substance is either an element or a compound.
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 5 An element is a substance that cannot be broken down into any simpler substance by chemical means. E.g. Iron, oxygen, and neon are examples of elements. A compound is a pure substance that is made from two or more elements that are combined together chemically. E.g. methane (CH4) contains the elements carbon and hydrogen.
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 6 A mixture is a combination of pure substances Properties of mixtures vary Two main types of mixtures
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 7 Types of Mixtures A homogeneous mixture is a mixture that looks the same throughout and the separate components are not visible. Solutions are homogeneous mixtures. iced tea is a solution of sugar and other substances dissolved in water
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 8 A heterogeneous mixture is one in which different parts of the mixture are visible. a suspension, a cloudy mixture in which tiny particles of one substance are held within another substance. Salad dressing is an example of a suspension a mechanical mixture, may contain several solids combined together, such as in a chocolate-chip cookie.

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 10 Matter And Atoms All matter is made up of tiny particles called atoms. An atom is the smallest part of an element that has all the element’s properties. Gold and silver are elements. Atoms of gold are similar to each other but different from atoms of silver.
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 11 Dalton’s Atomic Theory Atomic theory is the study of the nature of atoms and how atoms combine to form all types of matter. Atoms are the smallest indivisible particles of matter Each element has its own unique kind of atom. Atoms of different elements vary in mass, volume, and reactivity and are in continuous motion. Atoms combine to form compound/molecules
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 12 Subatomic Particles of matter There are three subatomic particles, protons, neutrons, and electrons that make atoms. Electrons and protons have an electric charge. Protons have a positive charge of 1+. Electrons have a negative charge of 1- Neutrons are neutral. The masses of protons and neutrons are almost 2000 times greater than the mass of electrons Copy Table 4.3 Properties of Subatomic Particles

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 14 Representing an Atom The basic arrangement of the nucleus and electrons in a atom is typical of all atoms e.g. sulphur. The atoms of every element have a unique number of protons, called atomic number. A Bohr-Rutherford diagram is an illustration of an atom that shows the arrangement and number of electrons in each shell, with number of protons and neutron in the nucleus.
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 15 Bohr-Rutherford Diagram The electrons surround the nucleus in shells. Each shell has a specific energy level. The innermost shell can hold two electrons at most. The next two shells can hold up to eight electrons each. The outermost shell of an atom is called the valence shell and contains the valence electrons.

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 18 The Periodic Table of Elements The periodic table contains a set of symbols to represent the elements, laid out in a specific pattern Dmitri Mendeleev was the first person to create a table that organized all the elements logically, including those that were not discovered at the time.
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 19 Characteristics of the Periodic Table The horizontal rows of the periodic table are called periods. The vertical columns are called families (or groups). Elements in the same family in the periodic table have similar physical and chemical properties Metals are on the left and in the centre of the table. Non-metals are located on the right-hand side of the table.
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 20 Metals are separated from non-metals by a staircase of elements called the metalloids.
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 21 Metals and non Metals Metals are good conductors of heat and electricity. they are ductile and malleable. they are shiny and usually silver coloured, and all but one are solids at room temperature. Mercury is a metal, but it is liquid at room temperature. Nonmetals are not metals, and they generally are poor conductors of heat. At room temperature, some non-metals are solids, some are gases, and one, bromine, is a liquid.

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 24 Chemical Families alkali metals (group 1):metals that react easily with water and with oxygen in the air. hydrogen is not an alkali metal alkaline earth metals (group 2): harder and less reactive than group 1 metals. combines easily with other atoms. halogens (group 17): most reactive non-metals noble gases (group 18): unreactive gases does not combine easily with other atoms.

Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 26 Elements on the Periodic Table The atomic number: is the number of protons in an atom of an element. E.g. atomic number of copper is 29 The atomic mass is the average mass of an atom of that element. atomic mass of hydrogen is about 1, copper is mass of a copper atom is about 64 times the mass of a hydrogen atom.
Copyright © 2010 Pearson Canada Inc. B - 27 Ion Charge: An ion is an atom or group of atoms with a negative charge or a positive charge. Atoms of some elements can gain or lose electrons during chemical change. An atom that gains electrons becomes a negatively charged ion. An atom that loses electrons becomes a positively charged ion.
