Study Notes

Classification of Matter

  • Matter can be categorized into pure substances and mixtures

Pure Substances

  • Made up of only one type of particle (atom or molecule)
  • Elements and compounds are considered pure substances because they have a fixed composition and properties
  • Examples: oxygen (O2), water (H2O), sugar (C6H12O6)

Mixtures

  • Made up of two or more different substances, not chemically combined
  • Properties and composition can vary

Basic Concepts of Chemistry

  • The concept of "mole" is a basic concept of chemistry
  • "Mass" is a basic concept of chemistry
  • "Matter" is a basic concept of chemistry
  • "Energy" is a basic concept of chemistry
  • "Particle" is NOT a basic concept of chemistry

Pure vs Impure Substances

  • Pure substances have a fixed composition and properties, while impure substances have varying composition and properties
  • Pure substances are homogeneous, while impure substances are heterogeneous
