    Study Notes

    Key Concepts in Chemistry

    • Matter: Anything that has mass and occupies space.
    • Pure Substance: Matter made of only one type of particle.
    • Mixture: Matter made of more than one type of particle.
    • Solution: A homogeneous mixture, where the components cannot be distinguished.
    • Mechanical Mixture: A heterogeneous mixture, where the components can be distinguished.
    • Solute: A substance that dissolves in a solvent.
    • Solvent: A substance that dissolves a solute.
    • Dissolving: The process where a solute mixes with a solvent to form a solution.
    • Rate of Dissolving: The speed at which a solute dissolves in a solvent.
    • Solubility: The ability of a substance to dissolve in a solvent.
    • Concentration: The amount of solute in a given amount of solvent.
    • Particle Theory: The theory that all matter is made up of tiny particles in constant motion, with space between them.

    Changes of State

    • Melting: Solid to liquid.
    • Freezing: Liquid to solid.
    • Evaporation: Liquid to gas.
    • Condensation: Gas to liquid.
    • Factors Affecting Rate of Change: Temperature, stirring, and particle size
    • Attractive Forces: The strengths of attraction between particles: stronger forces mean they stay closer together.

    Separating Mixtures

    • Filtration: Separating a solid from a liquid by using a filter.
    • Evaporation: Separating a solid from a liquid by evaporating the liquid.
    • Distillation: Separating liquids with different boiling points by heating and condensation.
    • Chromatography: Separating mixtures of dissolved substances based on their attraction to different materials.
    • Sorting: Separating mixtures by sorting components based on size, shape, color, or other properties.
    • Sifting: Separating materials based on differences in particle size.
    • Magnetism: Separating materials based on magnetic properties.
