Chemical Properties & Physical and Chemical Changes
2
Physical changes are those changes that do not result in the production of a new substance. If you melt a block of ice, you still have H2O at the end of the change.
3
If you break a bottle, you still have glass
If you break a bottle, you still have glass. Painting your nails will not stop them from being fingernails. Some common examples of physical changes are: melting, freezing, condensing, breaking, crushing, cutting, and bending.
4
When a change of state occurs,
molecules or atoms may move faster or slower, may spread out or clump together, but they do not change. i.e. An H2O molecule is still an H2O molecule!
5
Some, but not all physical changes can be reversed
Some, but not all physical changes can be reversed. You could refreeze the water into ice, but you cannot put your hair back together if you don’t like your haircut!
6
Special types of physical changes where any object changes state, such as when water freezes or evaporates, are sometimes called change of state operations.
7
The distinction between physical and chemical change.
Physical change A substance alters its physical form, not its composition Chemical change A substance is converted into a new substance

Lithium (Li) is a soft, gray solid that has the lowest density
Sample Problem 1.5 Calculating Density from Mass and Length PROBLEM: Lithium (Li) is a soft, gray solid that has the lowest density of any metal. If a slab of Li weighs 1.49 x 103 mg and has sides that measure 20.9 mm by 11.1 mm by 11.9 mm, what is the density of Li in g/cm3 ?
10
CHEMICAL PROPERTIES Chemical properties can ONLY be observed AS the substances are changing into different substances.
11
Chemical changes, or chemical reactions, are changes that result in the production of a new substance.
12
FLAMMABILITY: A material’s ability to BURN in the presence of OXYGEN A chemical property
13
REACTIVITY: How readily (easily) a substance combines chemically with other substances. A chemical property

Some Characteristic Properties of Copper
Table 1.1 Some Characteristic Properties of Copper Physical Properties Chemical Properties slowly forms a basic blue-green sulfate in moist air reddish brown, metallic luster easily shaped into sheets (malleable) and wires (ductile) reacts with nitric acid and sulfuric acid good conductor of heat and electricity density = 8.95 g/cm3 slowly form a deep-blue solution in aqueous ammonia melting point = 10830C boiling point = 25700C
15
When you burn a log in a fireplace, you are carrying out a chemical reaction that releases carbon. When you light your Bunsen burner in lab, you are carrying out a chemical reaction that produces water and carbon dioxide.
16
Common examples of chemical changes that you may be somewhat familiar with are; digestion, respiration, photosynthesis, burning, and decomposition.

Physical versus Chemical Properties
Unit II - Part 1 The study of matter 35
36
Reviewing MATTER Matter: anything that has mass and takes up space
Mass – the amount of matter in something Volume – the amount of space something occupies Which of the following is matter? A car? A box? You? 36
37
What is a property? Property: a characteristic of a substance that can be observed 37
38
Physical Property Physical property: a property that can be observed without changing the identity of the substance. Examples: luster malleability: the ability to be hammered into a thin sheet ductility: the ability to be stretched into a wire melting point boiling point density solubility specific heat 38
39
• In a physical change no new substances
are formed • Physical changes include changes of state. • liquid to solid: Solidifying or Freezing • solid to liquid: Melting • liquid to gas: Evaporation or Boiling • gas to liquid: Condensation • gas to solid or solid to gas: Sublimation
40
Special Physical Properties
Melting point: the temperature at which a substance changes from a solid to a liquid at a given pressure water = 0oC Boiling point: the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a gas at a given pressure water = 100oC 40
41
Chemical Properties Chemical property: a property that can only be observed by changing the identity of the substance Examples: flammability ability to rust reactivity with vinegar 41
42
Density Density is the amount of mass per unit of volume.
Density can be used to identify a substance. The density of water is 1.0g/mL 42
43
Density Calculations Calculations:
D = m/V = g/mL = g/cm3 Ex: A cube has a mass of 2.8 g and occupies a volume of 3.67 ml. Would this object float or sink in water? Mass = 2.8 g Volume = 3.67 mL D = 2.8g/3.67 mL= 0.76 g/mL This object would float in water because its density is less than water (1.0 g/mL). 43
44
More Density Calculations
Ex: A liquid has a mass of 25.6 g and a volume of 31.6 mL. Use the table below to identify the substance. M=25.6 g V=31.6 mL D = 25.6 g/31.6 mL D= 0.81 g/mL The substance is ethanol. 44
45
Rules for Rounding Off Numbers
1. If the digit removed is more than 5, the preceding number increases by 1. 5.379 rounds to 5.38 if three significant figures are retained and to 5.4 if two significant figures are retained. 2. If the digit removed is less than 5, the preceding number is unchanged. rounds to if three significant figures are retained and to 0.24 if two significant figures are retained. 3.If the digit removed is 5, the preceding number increases by 1 if it is odd and remains unchanged if it is even. 17.75 rounds to 17.8, but rounds to 17.6. If the 5 is followed only by zeros, rule 3 is followed; if the 5 is followed by nonzeros, rule 1 is followed: rounds to 17.6, but rounds to 17.7 4. Be sure to carry two or more additional significant figures through a multistep calculation and round off only the final answer.

Clues that a Chemical Change has occurred.
• Color change • Heat or light given off • Odor given off • Gas released • Solid forming in a liquid
