1 Classification of Matter
Pure substance Mixtures Compounds Elements Homogeneous Heterogeneous Organic Inorganic

2 Classification of Matter
Matter is anything with mass and volume Two general categories all matter can be divided into are Pure substance: matter in which all the basic units are the same Mixtures: substances that are put together but not chemically combined

3 Pure substances can be further subcategorized as
Compounds: Two or more elements that are chemically combined Elements: Substance made up of only one type of atom

4 There are two types of compounds based on the source of the compound in nature, living or non-living substances All living substances have carbon

5 Inorganic compounds: either contain no carbon or single carbon atoms
Organic compounds: most contain chains of carbon All sources of energy in your diet contain organic compounds What nutrients provide you with energy? Inorganic compounds: either contain no carbon or single carbon atoms Minerals and water are examples

6 Mixtures are classified as
Homogeneous: having a uniform distribution of particles throughout the sample Solution: Homogenus mixture of one material dissolved into another Solute- the material that is dissolved Solvent- the material that does the dissolving Heterogeneous: a non-uniform distribution of particles

7 Group Activity Using the Matter Classification concept map
List three examples of Compounds, Elements, Heterogeneous Solutions, Homogenous Solutions

8 Physical Changes Physical Changes involve changing the shape, physical state, size, or temperature without changing the chemical identity Phase change is a visible change in structure without changing the molecular structure

9 Chemical Changes Occurs whenever new substances with different chemical and physical properties are formed Evidence: Color Odor Flavor Release of gas Transfer of energy (change in temperature)
