CLASSIFICATION OF MATTER STATES OF MATTER CHANGES IN MATTER
2
Anything that has mass and occupies space All matter is composed of atoms Atom: Extremely small chemically indivisible particle Atom is Greek for “that which cannot be divided” An atom cannot be divided and retain it’s chemical properties
3
Element: any substance that cannot be broken up into simpler substances by chemical means Element silver, copper, hydrogen, oxygen nitrogen Compound: a substance formed when atoms of two or more elements join together H 2 0 (water), CO 2 (carbon dioxide) Mixture: a material of two or more substances that are not chemically bound to each other and can be separated Blood: water-based mixture including Proteins, sugars, salt, oxygen, carbon dioxide
4
Properties of matter are distinguishing characteristics of a substance that are used in its identification and description Chemical properties Physical properties
5
Characteristic of a substance that can be observed without changing substance into another substance Color Odor Taste Size Physical state (liquid, gas, or solid) Boiling point Melting point Density
6
Characteristic of a substance that describes how substances react with other substances such as water, air or fire to form a new substance Digestion Combustion Photosynthesis
7
Solar Energy + 6CO 2 + 6H 2 O C 6 H 12 O 6 + 6O 2 + chemical (heat) energy Carbon Dioxide Water Carbohydrate or Sugar Oxygen
8
Chemical changes involve formation of a new substance Physical changes occur when a substance changes color, size, shape, temperature or state States of matter: solid, liquid, gas Often physical changes can occur because a chemical change has happened!!!! Examples : pH indicator, bruised fruit, combustion of hydrogen
9
SOLID Holds shape Fixed volume LIQUID Indefinite shape definite volume GAS Indefinite shape Indefinite volume
10
Plasma The fourth state Gas that is so hot that it has ionized The gas is electrically charged and is affected by magnetic and electric fields Sun’s corona
11
Melting: solid to liquid Freezing: liquid to solid Evaporation: liquid to gas Condensation: gas to liquid Sublimination: solid to gas
12
Can rocks melt? Yes, if it gets hot enough So, what determines states of matter? Temperature & Pressure
