1. Matter

2. Matter is everything around you, including you!
What is matter?
Matter is everything around you, including you!
Matter is what all things are made of.

3. Matter has 3 forms.
1. Solid
2. Liquid
3. Gas

4. Solids A solid has its own shape.
A solid does not change unless you cut, bend, or break it.
Solids take up space and have mass.

5. Liquids Liquids do not have their own shape.
Liquids take the shape of their container.
Liquids take up space and have mass.

6. Gases Gases have no definite size or shape.
Gases take the shape of its container.
A gas will fill all the space inside a container.
Gases take up space and have mass.

7. Mixtures:
A mixture is a combination of two or more substances in which each pure substance retains its individual chemical properties
This is a physical blending, not a chemical blending.
Composition of the mixture can vary
Can be physically separated

8. Heterogeneous & Homogeneous Mixtures:
Heterogeneous Mixture- one that does not blend smoothly throughout and which the individual substances remain distinct
Examples: Sand and Water, Oil and Water, Cement
Homogeneous Mixture (Solutions)- has constant composition throughout; it always has a single phase
Examples: salt water, vinegar, alloys

22. METHODS OF SEPARATING MIXTURES
Magnet
Filter
Decant
Evaporation
Centrifuge
Chromatography
Distillation

23. FILTRATION
A technique that uses a porous barrier to separate a solid from a liquid

24. DISTILLATION
A technique that is based on differences in the boiling points of substances

25. CRYSTALLIZATION
A technique that results in the formation of pure solid particles of a substance from a solution containing the dissolved substance

26. CHROMATOGRAPHY
A technique that separates the components of a mixture on the basis of the tendency of each to travel or be drawn across the surface of another material

27. ELEMENTS AND COMPOUNDS
Elements- are the simplest form of matter that can exist under NORMAL laboratory conditions
Cannot be separated into simpler substances by chemical means
Are the building blocks for all other --substances
Compounds-are substances that can be separated into simpler substances by chemical means
