Study Notes
Describing and Classifying Matter
- Physical Change: A change in the form or appearance of a substance, but not its chemical composition. For example, chopping wood changes its shape but not its chemical makeup.
- Chemical Change: A change that results in the formation of new substances with different properties.
- Matter: Anything that has mass and occupies space.
- Air Purifier: Uses filtration to separate dust and allergens from the air.
- Physical Property: A characteristic of a substance that can be observed without changing its chemical composition. For example, color, conductivity, and boiling point are physical properties.
- Chemical Property: A characteristic of a substance that describes how it reacts with other substances. For example, flammability is a chemical property.
- Compound: A substance formed by the chemical combination of two or more elements in a fixed ratio. For example, sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄) is a compound.
- Mixture: A combination of two or more substances that are not chemically bonded. For example, air, smog, coffee, and chocolate milk are mixtures.
Measuring Matter
- Mass: The amount of matter in an object. It is independent of gravity.
- Volume: The amount of space that an object occupies.
- Density: The ratio of an object's mass to its volume.
- Weight: The force of gravity on an object. It is dependent on gravity.
