1
All matter is either pure or a mixture. Pure matter - elements (atoms) or compounds (molecules). Mixtures - homogenous (joined) or heterogeneous (separate). All atoms present before a chemical reaction must be present after. (Law of Conservation of Matter) Chemical formula represents the type and amount of elements that make up the compound – AlCl 3

Properties of Materials
3
Use the periodic table to differentiate among metals, nonmetals and metalloids Classify elements as metals, nonmetals or metalloids based on their propertaies Describe different types of physical and chemical properties.

5
Physical properties Traits that can be observed or measured without changing the composition of matter. Used to observe and describe matter.
6
Examples of Physical Properties: 1. State – solid, liquid or gas at room temperature. 2. Hardness – how difficult it is to scratch or dent. 3. Melting point – unique temperature needed to change from solid into liquid. 4. Boiling point – unique temperature needed to change from liquid into gas.
7
5. Lustre – shiny or dull. 6. Malleability – how easy to bend or flatten. (opposite – brittle) 7. Ductility – how easy to pull into a wire. 8. Viscosity – how easy it flows or moves. 9. Solubility – does it dissolve in water. 10. Conductivity – will heat/electricity go through.
8
11. Density A measure of how much matter (stuff) is in a volume of substance. Water has a density of 1 g/cm 3 Lead has a density of 11.34 g/cm 3 atoms Unit of density is grams per cubic centimetre g/cm 3 OR g/mL(1 cm 3 = 1 mL)
9
Same size = same volume. heavier density = mass volume density = mass volume LeadWater
10
If you have 3.0 mL of an element that has a mass of 2.0 grams, what is the density of this element? d = m v d 3.0 mL = 2.0 g d = 0.67 g/mL
11
Chemical properties Describes how a substance will react with another substance to form new materials. Cannot be observed without changing the original material.
12
Examples: 1. Combustion – does it burn or ignite when mixed. 2. Corrosion – does it react with acids. 3. Oxidation – does it react with air. 4. Hydration – does it react with water. 5. Heating – does it react to heat. *Don't confuse with boiling – state change/physical.
14
Metals Most common form of matter – 75% of elements. Metals demonstrate similar (but NOT identical) physical and chemical properties. Non-metals 15% of elements. Non-metals demonstrate properties that are the opposite of metals.
15
Metalloids: Elements on the staircase – 6% of elements. Exhibit properties between metal and non-metals.
