Study Notes

Properties of Matter

  • Matter is characterized by observable properties such as mass, volume, and density.
  • Properties help in identifying and separating substances.

Chemical Properties

  • Chemical properties are traits observable when matter reacts with another substance.
  • Examples include flammability and oxidation.

Chemical Formula

  • A chemical formula indicates the types and number of atoms in a substance.
  • Example: CO2 (1 Carbon atom, 2 Oxygen atoms = Carbon Dioxide).

Physical Properties

  • Physical properties can be observed without changing the chemical composition.
  • Intensive Properties: Do not depend on the amount of substance (e.g., ductility, malleability, diffusion).
  • Extensive Properties: Depend on the amount (e.g., size).

Common Substances

  • Sodium Chloride (NaCl): 1 Sodium atom, 1 Chlorine atom.
  • Ammonia (NH3): 1 Nitrogen atom, 3 Hydrogen atoms.
  • Sucrose (C12H22O11): 12 Carbon, 22 Hydrogen, 11 Oxygen atoms.
  • Methane (CH4): 1 Carbon, 4 Hydrogen atoms.
  • Acetone (C3H6O): 3 Carbon, 6 Hydrogen, 1 Oxygen atom.

Consumer Products

  • Defined as final goods purchased by individuals or households for personal use.
  • Production involves the interplay of science, technology, and societal needs.

Separation Techniques

  • Various methods are used to separate components of mixtures:
    • Distillation: Evaporation and condensation process based on boiling points.
    • Filtration: Separates insoluble solids from liquids through porous material.
    • Decantation: Involves pouring off liquid from settled solid.
    • Centrifugation: Uses centrifugal force to accelerate the settling of components.
    • Chromatography: Separates substances based on their affinities for a stationary phase.
    • Electrolysis: Chemical breakdown resulting from electric current through a liquid solution.

Key Concepts

  • Method: Refers to procedures or techniques used in separation.
  • Separate: Process of moving or segregating substances to isolate components.
  • Mixture: Combination of two or more pure substances without a chemical union.
