1
UNDERSTANDING MATTER AND CHEMICAL CHANGE
The universe is made up of two things : matter and energy
2
MATTER Matter is made up of particles
These particles are made up of elements (from the periodic table
3
ENERGY Energy is the different forces that make particles do something i.e. fusion (stars), electromagnetic fields, fission (atomic bombs), a push or pull
4
PARTICLE THEORY OF MATTER
All matter is made up of very small particles
5
Each pure substance has its own kind of particle, different from the particles of other pure substances
6
Particles attract each other
7
There are spaces between particles
8
Particles are always moving.
9
As particles gain energy they move faster
As particles gain energy they move faster. Particles at higher temperature move faster than particles at lower temperatures
10
3 STATES OF MATTER (ON EARTH)
Solid Liquid Gas
11
HEY! WHAT ABOUT PLASMA???? Only in stars (like our sun) or in a laboratory
12
WHAT IS MATTER?
13
How do you classify matter?
14
MATTER Pure substances Mixtures
15
Which is the pure substance? Which is the mixture?
16
Why does a chemist care?
17
MATTER Pure substances Mixtures
18
Pure substances Compounds Elements
19
Compounds NaCl H2O (chemical formulas)
20
Elements (on the periodic table)
21
How can we tell the difference between elements and compounds?
22
Compounds can be broken down into simpler units by heat and/or electricity.
NaCl Na Cl
23
Elements cannot be broken down chemically into simpler units by heat or electricity
24
LEARNING CHECK: ELEMENT OR COMPOUND?
H2O C6H12O6 (glucose – sugar made in photosynthesis Zn Fe
25
MATTER Pure substances Compounds Elements Mixtures
26
Same properties throughout SOLUTIONS
Mixtures Homogeneous mixtures Heterogeneous mixtures Same properties throughout SOLUTIONS Different properties in small samples SALSA, MILK
27
LEARNING CHECK: HOMOGENEOUS OR HETEROGENEOUS MIXTURE
coke milk bowl of cereal koolaid gatorade salad dressing your junk drawer sand at the beach a bucket of sea water salt water you make by dissolving salt in warm water
28
A good way to tell the difference between a homogeneous and a heterogeneous liquid: If you shine a flashlight through a homogeneous mixture the light will go through and the liquid seems clear (even if colored). If you shine a flashlight through a heterogeneous liquid like milk – the light is dispersed by the particles so the liquid is murky.
29
LEARNING CHECK: COLLOID? SOLUTION?
30
Heterogeneous mixtures
Ordinary mechanical mixtures Big particles stay mixed (granite, salsa, choc chip cookie) Suspensions Large particles in liquid that settle (flour, charcoal) Colloids fine particles in a substance (gels, clouds) Emulsions Liquid in liquid (milk, mayo, salad dressings)
