Study Notes
Classifications of Matter
-
Mixture: Substance with varying compositions.
- Heterogeneous Mixture: Components can be identified (e.g., garden salad, trail mix).
- Colloid: Appears homogeneous but is heterogeneous under tests (e.g., milk, styling gel).
- Homogeneous Mixture (Solution): Very uniform composition (e.g., brine, orange juice).
-
Pure Substance: Consistent composition.
- Element: Composed of one type of atom (e.g., Darmstadtium, Hydrogen).
- Compound: Made of molecules, combining 2 or more elements (e.g., Aqua Fortis (HNCO₃), water (H₂O)).
Phases of Matter
- Solid: Defined shape, minimal molecular movement; has a rigid structure (e.g., diamond).
- Liquid: Takes the shape of its container; molecular movement is more fluid (e.g., lemon juice).
- Gas: High molecular movement; loosely structured; expands to fill its container (e.g., air).
- Plasma: Highly energized state, resulting from gas heating; characterized by glowing (e.g., neon lights).
Phase Transitions of Matter
- Melting: Solid to liquid transition from added heat (e.g., melting iron).
- Evaporation: Liquid to gas transition due to heat, breaking molecular bonds (e.g., saltwater evaporation).
- Ionization: Gas to plasma transition from energy addition, charging molecules (e.g., glowing neon gas).
- Recombination: Plasma to gas transition via heat removal, also known as deionization (e.g., cooling neon plasma).
- Condensation: Gas to liquid transition caused by energy transfer, forming bonds (e.g., water vapor to clouds).
- Freezing: Liquid to solid transition from heat removal, where molecules bond (e.g., solidifying mercury).
- Sublimation: Solid to gas transition without a liquid phase (e.g., frozen COâ‚‚ at room temperature).
- Deposition: Gas to solid transition when energy is released (e.g., water vapor forming snowflakes).
Properties of Matter
- Physical Property: Measurable attributes; can be assessed through senses (e.g., mass, color).
- Chemical Property: Relates to chemical structure and reactions (e.g., flammability, toxicity).
- Extensive Property: Dependent on the amount of material (e.g., mass, area).
- Intensive Property: Independent of material amount (e.g., color, density).
Consumer Products
- Food Additives: Improve flavor and appearance, preserve taste.
- Active Ingredients: Biologically active substances in drugs and cleaning products.
- Cleaning Agents: Remove dirt, odors, and harmful microorganisms.
- Cosmetics: Enhance appearance and fragrance for consumers.
