1 Classification of Matter

2 Classification of Matter
Matter – anything with mass and volume

3 Phase Differences Solid – definite volume and shape; particles packed in fixed positions. Liquid – definite volume but indefinite shape; particles close together but not in fixed positions Gas – neither definite volume nor definite shape; particles are at great distances from one another Plasma – high temperature, ionized phase of matter as found on the sun.

4 Condense Freeze Melt Evaporate Solid Liquid Gas

5 Chemical vs. Physical Change
Physical change – changes form, not composition - all changes in phase are physical Chemical change – change that produces a new substance(s) with different properties

7 Mixtures Made up of two substances together but not bonded
Heterogeneous- mixture is not the same from place to place. Homogeneous- same composition throughout (also called solutions)

8 Mixtures Can Be Separated by Physical changes
Distillation Filtration Chromotography

9 Pure Substances Compounds – substance with a constant composition
- can be broken down into smaller elements be chemical processes Elements – substance that cannot be decomposed into simpler substances by chemical or physical means - composed of smallest component of matter (Atoms)

10 Chemical Changes can be Identified by Observation
Change in color Change in temperature Formation of a gas Release of light Formation of a precipitate

11 Law of Conservation of Mass
In any chemical or physical change – matter (and its mass) is neither created nor destroyed

12 Law of Definite Composition
A given compound always contains the same proportion of elements by mass Example: Water has a mass ratio of hydrogen to oxygen of 1:8. What will the mass of oxygen be in a sample of water that contains 3g of hydrogen?

13 Law of Multiple Proportions
When two elements form a series of compounds, the ratios of the masses of the second element that combine with 1g of the first element can always be reduced to small whole numbers
