1
Matter
2
Chemistry is …the study of the composition, structure and properties of MATTER, the changes which matter undergoes and the energy that accompanies these changes.
3
EVERYTHING that is made of atoms!
What is matter? EVERYTHING that is made of atoms! What is not matter? Energy: heat, light, sound. . .
4
Atom Neutral particles Consists of subatomic particles
Protons, neutrons & electrons
5
2 Categories of Matter Substance Mixture
Element Collection of the same type of atom Cannot be decomposed Compound 2 or more different atoms chemically bonded together. Physical combination elements and/or compounds or both. USUALLY heterogeneous
6
Elements are represented with symbols DIATOMIC Elements
The simplest form of these elements is a pair of atoms Go to 7 and make a 7. Don’t forget Hydrogen!
8
Characteristics of a Compound
Individual atoms lose their original properties after bonding Composition is fixed can be decomposed / broken down
9
Compound vs. Molecule Molecule: applies only to bonded non-metal atoms
10
H2O O2 CO2 C6H12O6 NaCl Which are molecules? Which are compounds?
11
H2O O2 CO2 C6H12O6 NaCl Molecule & compound Molecule ONLY
IONIC compound
12
Element? Compound? Mixture? Substance?
13
Answer: Mixture of elements
14
Element? Compound? Mixture? Substance?
15
Answer: Compound and Substance
16
?
17
Ans: mixture of compounds
18
???????
19
Substance and element
20
SOLUTION NaCl(s) + H2O(l) NaCl(aq) Only mixture that is homogeneous
solute solvent aqueous solution Other solutions include Air (mixture of gases: N2, O2, CO2) & Alloys (mixture of metals: steel, brass & bronze)
21
Physical vs. Chemical
22
Physical Properties & Changes
determined without changing the chemical composition of the substance Examples…. Color, shape, odor, malleability, brittleness, does it conduct electricity, does it conduct heat? state of matter (s), (l), (g) Melting point, boiling point… mass volume density D = m/v
23
…and absorption angular momentum area capacitance concentration dielectric ductility distribution efficacy elasticity electric charge electrical impedance fluidity frequency inductance Intrinsic impedance Intensity irradiance length location luminance luminescence luster magnetic field magnetic flux momentum opacity permeability permittivity plasticity radiance resistivity reflectivity refractive index spin solubility specific heat strength temperature tension viscosity
24
Can be intensive or extensive
DON’T depend on sample size useful in identifying substances Ex. density DO depend on sample size volume weight mass
25
Chemical Properties determined during a chemical reaction with another substance Ex. Is it toxic, is it flammable, does it rust, does it tarnish, does it corrode…?
26
Chemical Change/ Chemical Reaction
Results in the rearrangement of atoms to form a new substance BUT!!! We can’t see atoms so how do we know a chemical reaction has taken place?
