1. Elements, Compounds and Mixtures. Chapter 16

2. Classification of Substances Elements Molecules Compounds Mixtures.

3. Elements Elements are substances made up of only one type of atom. Example  Hydrogen, Gold.

5. Periodic Table of Elements

6. Molecule A molecule is made up of two or more atoms chemically combined.

7. Compounds Compounds are made up of two or more different types of atoms chemically combined.

8. Properties of Compounds When a compound is formed during a chemical reaction its properties differ from those of the elements from which it is made. Example: Water is made from hydrogen and oxygen. Hydrogen  flammable gas Oxygen  colourless gas.

9. Diagram of Salt, water, sucrose.

10. Mixtures A mixture consists of two or more different substances mingled together but not chemically combined. Examples:Sea – water and salt Air – nitrogen, oxygen … Soil – sand, clay, humus …

11. Compare mixtures and Compounds.

12. MixtureCompound The amounts of the substances in the mixture can vary. The elements in a compound are always present in the same fixed proportion. A mixture contains two or more substances A compound is a single substance. The properties of a mixture are similar to those of the substances in a mixture. The properties of a compound are different to those of the elements which reacted to form it. There are practically no energy changes when a mixture is made Heat is usually given out or taken in when a compound is formed. It is usually easy to separate the components of a mixture. It is usually difficult to separate the components of a compound.
