Thursday, November 7 th, 2013 Characteristics of Matter
2
What is “effort aversion” What’s the “payout” for avoiding or minimizing effort? Meaning doesn’t lie in the work it lies in what you bring to the work!
3
Objectives To finalize our discussion of density by practicing density calculations and by using the terms: Derived property Physical Property Characteristic Property To introduce solubility
4
Agenda Bell Ringer (density notes finalized) Review Density Laboratory Results Practice the Density Dilemma Calculations Introduce Solubility Mini-Quiz (1-point) Density
5
Bell Ringer (write it out!) Density is a measure of how _________________ the material is in an object. It is a __________ property, because it doesn’t deal with the formation of new substances. It is a _________ property because you need to calculate it from two independent measurements (mass and volume) It is a _________ property because it can be used to identify the material and its measure is independent of the amount of material present. Tightly packed physical derived characteristic
6
Density Activity Results We’ve determined how to calculate the density of objects using the various laboratory apparatus and the equation D = m/V. In some cases we’ve needed to use a “special” method to determine the volume of irregularly shaped objects (called the __________ method) We’ve calculated the density of different types of: Wood Rubber Metals We’ve determined that items made out of the same material will always have the same density, regardless of their shape or size (rubber stoppers). CHARACTERISTIC PROPERTY displacement
7
Density Dilemma Let’s spend a few moments reviewing the density dilemma questions. Note… you will have a mini-quiz on these types of questions at the end of this class!
8
Other “characteristic” properties? Phase (state) change points Melting, Freezing, Boiling, Condensing pH ALL chemical properties Solubility
9
Think About It… Is salt soluble in water? YES!!! But could you dissolve all this salt with one drop of water? Certainly NOT!!! So there is a LIMIT to the amount of solute (salt) a given solvent (water) can dissolve
10
Solubility A measure of the amount of solute a that 100 grams of solvent can dissolve at a given temperature. Tomorrow we’ll have an activity testing the solubility of sucrose in water!
11
Density Mini-Quiz A sphere has a volume of 30mL and a density of 5g/mL. What will its mass be? A wooden block with a density of 0.8 g/cm 3 has a mass of 50 g. What will its volume be? Given: V = 30mL D = 5g/mL m = ? m = V x D m = 30mL x 5g/mL m = 150g Given: V = ? D = 0.8g/cm 3 m = 50g V = m/D V = 50g/0.8g/cm 3 V = 62.5cm 3
