    Study Notes

    Classroom Rules

    • Listen when someone is speaking
    • Participate in class activities

    Density

    • Density is a unique property of each substance
    • It can be calculated as mass divided by volume
    • Density is useful for identifying substances; gold is denser than aluminum

    Magnetism

    • Magnetism can be used to separate iron from a mixture
    • Iron is magnetic, while sulfur is not
    • A magnet can pull out the iron particles, leaving the sulfur behind

    Chromatography

    • Chromatography separates substances based on their solubility and interaction with a stationary phase
    • Differences in how they move through a medium (based on their solubility and affinity to the stationary and mobile phases) allows for the separation of substances

    Boiling Point vs. Filtration

    • Boiling point is a unique property used to identify substances
    • Filtration is a method used to separate mixtures by removing insoluble solids

    Solubility vs. Density

    • Density depends on mass and volume
    • Solubility is determined by the interaction of a solute with a solvent and can change with temperature

    Magnetism vs. Chromatography

    • Magnetism is used to separate iron from mixtures
    • Chromatography is used to separate pigments or dyes in mixtures

    Evaporation vs. Distillation

    • Evaporation involves a liquid turning into a vapor
    • Distillation involves both evaporation and condensation to separate substances based on boiling points

    Hardness vs. Solubility

    • Hardness helps identify minerals by testing their resistance to scratching
    • Solubility helps separate components in a mixture based on their ability to dissolve in a solvent

    Learning Competency

    • Use properties of matter to identify substances and separate them

    Objective

    • Explain properties of liquids and solids using the kinetic molecular model
    • Apply the correct separation technique based on matter properties in a given mixture
    • Analyze the use of these techniques in real-world scenarios (chemical analysis, water purification, etc.)

    Introduction to Matter

    • Matter has mass and occupies space
    • Matter is composed of elements, compounds, and mixtures
    • Physical vs. chemical properties are characteristics of matter

    Physical vs. Chemical Properties

    • Physical properties are observed without changing the substance

    • Chemical properties describe substances' ability to change into different substances

    • Examples of Physical Properties: luster, hardness, ductility, malleable, melting point, density

    • Examples of Chemical Properties: flammable, radioactive, corrosive, toxic, reactivity, pH

    • Intensive vs extensive properties: Intensive properties don't depend on the amount of matter in a sample, while extensive properties depend on the amount of matter in the sample

    Comparison Table of Physical vs. Chemical Properties

    • Physical properties are characteristics of a substance and are observed without changing it
    • Chemical properties describe a substance's ability to change into different substances, observed when substances interact

    Identifying Substances Based on Physical Properties

    • Solubility (e.g., sugar dissolving in water)
    • Melting and boiling points (e.g., identifying water from ethanol)
    • Density

    Techniques for Separating Substances

    • Filtration: separating solids from liquids
    • Distillation: separating substances with different boiling points
    • Chromatography: separating based on solubility
    • Magnetic separation: for magnetic materials
    • Decantation: separating liquids and solids

    Chemical Separation Methods

    • Reactivity with acids to isolate metals
    • Electrolysis to break down compounds
    • When physical methods are insufficient, chemical methods may be used.

    Real-Life Applications

    • Water purification
    • Recycling materials
    • Forensic analysis (e.g., chromatography for detecting substances)
    • Household sand filtration
