Study Notes
Classification of Matter
-
Compounds: Substances formed from two or more elements that are chemically bonded. Examples include:
- Sand
- Table salt (sodium chloride)
- Pure water (H₂O)
- Carbon dioxide (CO₂)
- Lithium iodide (LiI)
- Hydrogen peroxide (H₂O₂)
-
Elements: Pure substances that cannot be broken down into simpler substances. Examples include:
- Gold (Au)
- Oxygen (O₂)
- Silver (Ag)
- Lead (Pb)
-
Homogeneous Mixtures: Mixtures with a uniform composition throughout. Examples include:
- Lemonade
- Brass (an alloy of copper and zinc)
- Salt water (solution of NaCl in water)
- Air (a mixture of gases)
- Coffee
- Gatorade
-
Heterogeneous Mixtures: Mixtures with a non-uniform composition where different components can be seen. Examples include:
- Soil
- Italian salad dressing
- Apple pie
- Chocolate chip cookie
- Chicken soft taco from Taco Bell
Key Characteristics of Matter Classification
- Compounds exhibit distinct properties from the individual elements they comprise.
- Mixtures retain the properties of their individual components.
- Homogeneous mixtures appear uniform and consist of the same phase, while heterogeneous mixtures contain distinct phases.
