Study Notes
Properties of Matter
- Flammability, Toxicity, Acidity, Reactivity: Key chemical properties that determine how substances behave.
- Heat of Combustion: The amount of energy released during combustion.
Changes in Matter
- Physical Change: Involves alterations in form, not chemical identity (e.g., phase, size, volume, temperature).
-
Chemical Change: Original material transforms into a different substance with a new identity. Results from chemical reactions and involves energy changes:
- Endothermic Reaction: Absorbs energy (e.g., photosynthesis, melting ice).
- Exothermic Reaction: Releases energy (e.g., rusting of iron, burning of sugar).
Energy Changes
- Freezing water releases heat, making it an exothermic reaction. Supercooling can trap heat within the environment.
Law of Conservation of Mass
- Mass remains unchanged during physical and chemical changes. Matter is neither created nor destroyed.
Physical Properties of Matter
- Intensive Properties: Independent of the amount (e.g., density, color, boiling point).
- Extensive Properties: Dependent on the amount (e.g., mass, volume, heat content).
Common Properties of Matter
- Mass: Quantity of matter present.
- Inertia: Resistance to changes in motion; relates to mass.
- Weight: Gravitational force exerted on a body.
- Volume: Space occupied by matter.
- Density: Mass per unit volume of an object.
- Impenetrability: No two objects can occupy the same space simultaneously.
Chemical Properties of Matter
- Observable during chemical reactions (e.g., combustibility, oxidation).
- Changes in chemical identity and internal structure occur during chemical reactions.
Matter
- Defined as anything with mass and occupying space; composed of atoms.
- Exists in various states: solid, liquid, gas, plasma, influenced by temperature and pressure.
- Comprised of celestial bodies and living organisms, impacting the universe through various forces.
Classification of Matter
-
By Origin:
- Inorganic Matter: From non-living things.
- Organic Matter: From living things.
-
By State:
- Solid: Rigid structure with fixed particles, definite shape and volume.
- Liquid: Definite volume but no specific shape; particles can move relative to each other.
Importance of Chemistry
- Fundamental science that explores properties, structures, and interactions of matter, including energy changes.
