1
Substances, Compounds & Mixtures How everything is put together.
2
Substances Matter that has the same composition and properties throughout is called a substance. When different elements combine, other substances are formed.
3
Substances Contains only one particle Can exist in 3 states of matter Can be elements or compounds Picture from http://www.ilpi.com/msds/ref/gifs/statesofmatter.gif http://www.ilpi.com/msds/ref/gifs/statesofmatter.gif
4
What is a Pure Substance? A pure substance is a classification of matter that includes both elements and compounds Pure substances cannot be separated by physical means such as distillation, filtration, or chromatography
5
Compounds Are made of molecules and molecules are the smallest particle of a compound Have properties that are different from the elements that make them up. Molecules made up of 2 or more atoms chemically bonded together Examples: Water, salt, sugar A substance whose smallest unit is made up of atoms of more than one pure element bonded together.
6
H 2 O is the chemical formula for water, and H 2 O 2 is the formula for hydrogen peroxide. The formula tells you which elements make up a compound as well as how many atoms of each element are present. Compounds Have Formulas
7
How to read a formula H20H20H20H20 This is a subscript. It tells us how many atoms of that element exist in one unit of that compound. Water is made of 2 H atoms and 1 O atom. No subscript is used when only one atom of an element is present.
8
Compounds Sugar Carbon, Hydrogen, Oxygen (C 12 H 22 O 12 ) 12 Carbon atoms + 22 Hydrogen atoms + 12 Oxygen atoms = 1 molecule of sugar
9
Compounds Water Hydrogen, Oxygen (H 2 O) SaltSodium, Chlorine (Na Cl) Hydrogen Peroxide Hydrogen, Oxygen (H 2 O 2 )
10
Compound Review A pure compound has the same elements and the same amount of elements all of the time Elements are chemically combined Compound properties are different from the properties of the elements They cannot be separated physically Physical properties such as boiling point or melting point of pure substances do not change
11
Mixtures A mixture is a combination of two or more substances where there is no chemical combination or reaction.
12
Mixtures combine physically in no specific proportions. They just mix.
13
Solids, liquids and gases can be combined to create a mixture.
14
Mixture Types MIXTURES MAY BE HOMOGENEOUS OR HETEROGENEOUS
15
Homogeneous Mixtures Homogeneous Mixtures: The prefix: "homo"- indicates the same Have the same uniform appearance and composition throughout EX. A pile of pennies, iced tea with sugar (sugar has dissolved)
16
Solutions SOLUTIONS are homogeneous mixtures
17
What is a solution? A solution is a mixture of two or more substances. At least two substances must be mixed in order to have a solution
18
A solution has two parts The substance in the smallest amount and the one that DISSOLVES is called the SOLUTE The substance in the larger amount is called the SOLVENT - it does the dissolving IN most common instances water is the solvent
19
Examples of solutions Salt water Clean Air Vinegar
20
Heterogeneous Mixtures: The prefix: "hetero"- indicates difference A heterogeneous mixture consists of visibly different substances or phases Two or more parts can be seen
21
Examples: Pizza A pile of coins Chex Mix
22
How Can We Change Matter Into New Substances? Chemical reaction (also known as a chemical change) is a change in a substance or substances that results in a totally new substance Ex: 2H 2 (g) + O 2 (g) 2H 2 O(l) Notice that the reactants (the substances you start with) combine to form a new substance (the product)
23
How Do I Know If A Chemical Reaction Has Occurred? There are 5 indicators of a chemical reaction 1.Evolution of a gas 2.Evolution of light 3.Evolution of heat 4.Color change 5.Evolution of a precipitate Precipitate: an insoluble substance that is produced as result of a chemical reaction
24
Why Do Chemical Reactions Occur? Chemical reactions occur to produce a more stable product than the existing reactants
25
Structure of a Chemical Equation A chemical equation tells you the substances you start with in a reaction and the substances you get at the end The substances at the beginning are called the Reactants. When the reaction is complete, you have new substances call the Products The number of reactants and products can vary
26
Structure of a Chemical Equation Reactant + Reactant Product + Product Reactant + Reactant yields Product NH 3 + HCl NH 4 Cl Ammonia + Hydrogen Chloride yields Ammonium Chloride
27
Structure of a Chemical Equation Reactant Product + Product Reactant yields Product + Product CaCO 3 CaO + CO 2 Calcium Carbonate ( heated Limestone- 1,517 o F) yields Calcium Oxide + Carbon Dioxide
28
Where Does The Matter Go? It is important to understand that when matter undergoes a chemical reaction (ie a chemical change) it does not disappear or appear The atoms are rearranged and form new bonds, but no matter is lost nor gained This is called the Law of Conservation of Matter
29
Compounds vs Mixtures Compounds Mixtures Combine chemically forming molecules Not chemically combined Combine in set proportions Can combine in any proportion Separated chemically Separated physically
