Properties of matter and applications
2
Physical Properties
3
Physical properties are any characteristic of a material that you can observe without changing the identity of the substance that make up the material. These are usually physical descriptions of the material, but they can also include some behaviors.
4
Physical descriptions Behaviors
Color Shape Size (volume) Melting/Boiling Point Mass Weight Phase (solid, liquid, gas) Temperature Elasticity Density magnetic = attraction of a magnet to iron ductile = drawn into a wire like copper malleable = able to be pounded into sheets Viscosity Buoyancy
5
Fluids A FLUID is any material that has the ability to flow.
This includes gases and liquids Physical property
6
D (g/ mL) Density m ___ = vol
Is the amount of matter in a certain volume It is calculated by dividing the mass of the object (or material) by the volume m ___ (g) D (g/ mL) = vol (mL)
7
Viscosity Viscosity is the resistance of a fluid to flow.
The “thicker” the fluid, the greater the viscosity. Determined by the size of the molecules and by their tendency to stick together (cohesiveness). Viscosity decreases as temperature increases. (If you heat something up, it is easier to pour)
8
Physical Properties can be used to separate materials
9
Sort by size, sifting or sorting
Sunflower vs. Poppy Seeds
10
Sort by magnetism Iron vs. Sand
11
PHYSICAL CHANGE = a change in size, shape, or state of matter
(ice water gas) Rip a piece of paper
12
May involve energy changes but NOT change the kind of substance
Melt Iron change color and shape, but still iron
13
Distillation = process of separating substances in a mixture
by evaporating a liquid and recondensing its vapor. Liquid vaporizes and condenses, leaving the solid (salt) behind
14
Chemical Properties of matter and applications
15
CHEMICAL PROPERTIES = a characteristic of a substance that indicates whether it can undergo a certain chemical change. “Flammable” Burning produces new substances
16
Many medicines dark bottles
Change chemically if exposed to light
17
CHEMICAL CHANGE Rust = a change of one substance into another
(Remember that if you are forming a new material it is most likely going to have a new appearance. This means That you will almost always see physical changes accompany a chemical change) Rust Smell of rotten egg
18
Foaming of antacid tablet
19
Only sure proof that a new substance is produced is a rapid release of energy – heat, light, and sound
20
Hydrogen gas combines with oxygen =Explosion
rocket engine
22
Chemical Change: Cleaning tarnished silver
Tarnish is silver sulfides that form from sulfur compounds in the air
23
Pot of water = baking soda and crumpled aluminum foil
24
Change back to silver by chemical reaction
25
CHEMICAL CHANGE vs PHYSICAL CHANGE
26
Sunlight + Carbon Dioxide + Water
Chemical Equation Reactants Products A chemical equation can be written for A process that has a chemical reaction Take In Make/Give Off Sunlight + Carbon Dioxide + Water Glucose (sugar) + Oxygen
27
6CO2 + 6H2O C6H12O6 + 6O2 Light Light Energy CO2 + H2O Sugars + O2
Chloroplast Sugars + O2
28
Forces of nature reshape Earth’s surface
WEATHERING – CHEMICAL OR PHYSICAL CHANGE? Forces of nature reshape Earth’s surface
29
Physical: Large rocks split when water freezes Doesn’t change the rock
30
Wood combustible and burnable = chemical property
31
Pile of ash is small – loss of matter?
Collected = oxygen, smoke and gas that escaped = No mass lost
32
Law of Conservation of Mass
= mass before chemical change equal mass after chemical change “Mass cannot be created nor destroyed”
