Study Notes
- Matter and particle theory apply to Grade 9 science at Notre Dame College School.
- John Dalton developed the particle theory.
Key Topics
- What is matter
- Particle Theory
- Mixtures vs Pure Substances
- Mixtures
- Heterogeneous Mixtures - Solutions
- Homogeneous Mixtures - Mechanical Mixture - Suspension - Solution
- Pure Substances
- Elements
- Compounds
What is Matter?
- Matter contains mass and volume and takes up space.
- Energy, such as light, heat and sound is not matter.
Particle Theory of Matter
- Provides a way to describe the structure and behavior of matter
- There are four principals, written by John Dalton.
- All matter is made up of very tiny objects called particles.
- The particles are too small to be seen with a light microscope.
- All particles have spaces .
- The size of these spaces determine the state of matter.
- Particles present are always in motion.
- In a solid, particles vibrate together
- In a liquid, the particles stay close but slide along each other
- In a gas, the particles bounce and move in directions
- The particles in a substance attract each other to varying degrees depending on the substance.
Pure Substances vs. Mixtures
- Matter is divided into pure substances and mixtures.
- Pure substances contain one type of element or compound
- Mixtures are a combination of pure substances consisting of two or more types of particle.
Pure Substances
- Made up of one type of particle or matter and have a unique set of properties.
- These come in the form of elements or compounds
Elements
- Definition: a substance that cannot be broken down into any simpler substance via chemical means.
- Elements are made up of one type of atom
- Examples: oxygen, calcium, iron, carbon and helium
Compounds
- A pure substance made from two or more elements combined together chemically.
- Made up of molecules that are held together by chemical bonds.
- Water is a molecule made out of two types of atom (oxygen and hydrogen).
- Water is a compound because it has many molecules of one type (Hâ‚‚O = Water)
Mixtures
- A combination of two or more pure substances (different types of particles) that do not chemically combine.
- Mixtures can be divided into heterogeneous and homogenous
- Heterogeneous : Mechanical
- Homogeneous : Solutions
Heterogeneous Mixtures
- Two or more particles where the different particles are easy to see and separate.
- Can be divided into Mechanical mixtures and suspensions.
Mechanical Mixtures
- In mechanical mixtures, the different substances that make up the mixture are visible.
- Mechanical Mixtures are made up of several distinct parts - Examples: lasagne, parfait, and a cookie
Suspensions
- Suspensions are a cloudy mixture where small particles of one substance are held (float) in another substance.
- These particles can be separated by filtration.
- Examples: salad dressing, glittery nail polish and yogurt
Homogenous Mixtures
- This occurs when 2 or more particles dissolve in one another.
- Only one layer or phase is visible in a homogenous mixture
- Solutions are homogeneous mixtures.
Solutions
- Mixture of 2 or more substances that dissolve in each other and only one layer/phase can be seen.
- Kool-Aid and Tea
- The smallest particle of an element is the atom
- 2 atoms of hydrogen bonded together, form a molecule
- 2 or more different types of atoms bonded together. make molecules which make a compound
