Study Notes
Chemical Reactions
- Chemical reactions involve the transformation of one or more substances into new substances.
- Types of chemical reactions:
- Synthesis: two or more substances combine to form a new substance.
- Decomposition: a single substance breaks down into two or more substances.
- Replacement: one element replaces another element in a compound.
- Combustion: a substance reacts with oxygen to produce heat and light.
- Chemical reactions involve the breaking and forming of chemical bonds, resulting in a change in the chemical composition of the substances involved.
States of Matter
- Solid: particles are closely packed and have a fixed shape and volume.
- Liquid: particles are close together but are free to move past each other, taking the shape of their container.
- Gas: particles are widely spaced and are free to move randomly, filling their container.
- Plasma: a high-energy state of matter where atoms are ionized and electrons are free to move.
- Changes of state:
- Melting: solid to liquid.
- Freezing: liquid to solid.
- Evaporation: liquid to gas.
- Condensation: gas to liquid.
Physical Properties
- Physical properties are characteristics of a substance that can be observed without changing its chemical composition.
- Examples of physical properties:
- Color
- Odor
- Texture
- Density
- Solubility
- Boiling and melting points
- Physical properties can be used to identify and distinguish substances.
Mixture Separation
- Methods of separating mixtures:
- Filtration: separating particles based on size.
- Sedimentation: separating particles based on density.
- Centrifugation: separating particles based on density and size.
- Chromatography: separating particles based on their interactions with a stationary phase.
- Distillation: separating particles based on their boiling points.
Everyday Applications
- Matter is used in various applications in daily life:
- Food and drink production: understanding the properties of ingredients and chemical reactions involved in cooking and processing.
- Medicine: understanding the properties of medications and their interactions with the body.
- Materials science: understanding the properties of materials and their applications in construction, electronics, and other industries.
- Environmental science: understanding the properties of pollutants and their effects on the environment.
- Technology: understanding the properties of materials and chemical reactions involved in the production of electronics, fuels, and other technologies.
