Study Notes
Changes in Matter
- Changes can be classified as either physical or chemical.
- Physical Changes: Do not alter the chemical composition of a substance.
- Examples: condensation of steam, dissolving sugar in water, melting of gold.
- Chemical Changes: Result in the formation of new substances.
- Examples: burning of gasoline, souring of milk.
Volume and Changes
- Changes in gas volume, like oxygen gas changing from 10 mL to 11 mL, signify a physical change, not a chemical one.
Properties of Matter
- Extensive Properties: Depend on the amount of substance present.
- Example: mass and volume.
- Intensive Properties: Remain constant regardless of the amount of substance.
- Example: density, defined as mass divided by volume.
Density as an Intensive Property
- Density is an intensive property because it is a ratio (mass/volume) of two extensive properties.
- The ratio cancels the dependence on the amount, yielding a constant value for density.
Definitions of Changes and Properties
- Chemical Change: Produces a different kind of matter from the original.
- Chemical Property: Describes how a substance can change into different matter.
- Extensive Property: A characteristic that varies with the amount of substance.
- Intensive Property: A characteristic that does not change with the amount of substance.
- Physical Change: Alters the state or properties of matter without changing its chemical composition.
- Physical Property: A characteristic that doesn't involve a change in the chemical composition.
