1. MATTER AND CHANGE Chemistry RHS Mr. Moss

2. Whatchathinkboutit? Write your definition of the term Chemistry. Include thoughts about what you think this field includes.

3. Chemistry The study of the composition, structure, and properties of matter, the processes that matter undergoes, and the energy changes that accompany those processes. Answers questions such as: What is the makeup of this material? What changes when I heat or cool a substance? Why do these materials behave this way when mixed? Etc…

4. Matter, Mass, and Volume What is Matter? Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space. What is Mass? Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. It’s the reading we get when we measure something on the balance. Mass IS NOT the same thing as weight. Mass is a measure of the amount of matter in an object. Weight is a measure of the force of gravity acting on the matter. An astronaut has the SAME mass on Earth as on the Moon but 1/6 th the weight. What is Volume? Volume is the amount of 3-dimensional space that an object occupies.

5. Matter Matter comes in many forms. The fundamental building blocks of matter are Atoms and Molecules. Atoms are the smallest unit of an element that maintains the chemical identity of the element. Elements are pure substances that cannot be broken down into simpler substances and are made of only one type of atom. Compounds are substances that can be broken down into simpler substances and are made from atoms of two or more elements that are chemically bonded.

6. States or Phases of Matter Matter exists in one of four states or phases Solid Liquid Gas Plasma Classification can be made by determining whether the shape and volume are definite or variable. Definite means that it does not change when transferred from one container to another.

7. Solid Definite Shape Definite Volume Atoms not free to move Vibrate or oscillate in place Distance between molecules are is short Strong attractive forces. Not easily compressible

8. Molecular Arrangement of Solid

9. Kinetic Theory in Solids Solids have a definite volume and shape because particles in a solid vibrate around fixed locations. Each atom vibrates around its location but it does not exchange places with its neighbor. The particles are held close together by the strong attractive forces between them.

10. Liquid No definite shape Takes shape of container Definite Volume Molecules are close but are free to move past one another. The attractive forces are moderate. Not easily compressible

11. Molecular Arrangement of Liquid

12. Kinetic Theory of Liquids Attractive forces affect movement of particles. Tug-of-War between attraction and constant motion. Liquids take the shape of the container and can flow to new locations. The volume is constant due to the forces of attraction keeping particles close together.

13. Gas No Definite Shape Takes shape of container No Definite Volume Take the volume of the container The molecules move independently. The attractive forces are weak. Large distance between molecules Compressible Pressure is caused by molecules colliding with the walls of the container.

14. Molecular Arrangement of Gas

15. Kinetic Theory of Gases The total kinetic energy of the atoms stays the same. During a collision, one speeds up and the other slows down by the same amount. The constant motion of particles in a gas allows a gas to fill a container of any shape or size. 3 main points: Particles are in constant, random motion The motion of one is unaffected by the motion of another unless they collide. Forces of attraction are weak and can therefore be ignored.

16. Plasma High temperature highly ionized gas like substance. Ionized means electrically charged particles. No definite shape or volume. 99% of known matter is made of plasma. Not normally found on Earth Most of the matter of the stars and sun. Lightning, fire, aurora borealis, fluorescent lights Atoms have the most energy of the four phases.

17. Plasma

18. A fifth phase??? Predicted by Einstein after reading a paper written by Satyendra Bose in the 1920’s. Occurs at extremely low temperatures Near 0 Kelvin Called the Bose-Einstein condensate.

19. Properties of Matter The properties of matter are used by chemist to define or identify an unknown substance. Properties are either Extensive or Intensive. Extensive Properties depend on the amount of matter that is present. Volume, Mass, and the amount of Energy present. Intensive Properties do not depend on the amount of matter present. Melting/Boiling Point, Density, and Conductivity.

20. Properties of Matter The properties of matter can be grouped into two general types: Physical Chemical

21. Physical Properties A Physical Property is a characteristic that can be observed or measured without changing the identity of the substance. A physical change is a change in a substance that does not involve a change in the identity of the substance.

22. Physical Properties Viscosity Resistance to flow. The higher the number, the slower the flow. Density mass per unit volume (m / v) Solubility The ability of a substance to dissolve in another substance. Melting / Freezing / Boiling points Conductivity Malleability Hardness

23. Physical Properties Melting / Freezing / Boiling points Conductivity Malleability Hardness Color Temperature Mass Volume Phase Shape

24. Physical Change Any change in a substance in which the composition of the substance does not change. Examples: Melting butter Slicing a tomato Braiding / cutting hair Crumpling paper Some physical changes are reversible and some are not. Reversible: Freezing – melting – refreezing water Non reversible: slicing a tomato and cutting hair.

25. Chemical Properties Any ability to produce a change in the composition of matter. Chemical properties can be observed only when the substances in a sample of matter are changing into different substances. The composition of the substance has been altered.

26. Chemical Properties Flammability ability to burn in the presence of oxygen. Reactivity Describes how readily a substance combines chemically with other substances.

27. Chemical Change Occurs when a substance reacts and forms one or more new substances. There is a change in the arrangement of atoms. Chemical bonds are broken and reformed. Example: Cake baking in oven Leaves changing color Digestion of food Combustion

28. Chemical Change Three common types of evidence to look for: CHANGE IN COLOR PRODUCTION OF A GAS FORMATION OF A PRECIPITATE

29. Key Question Are different substances present after the change takes place?
