Study Notes
Main Objectives of Chemistry
- Understand properties of solid, liquid, and gaseous states.
- Classify matter based on its composition.
- Identify examples of physical and chemical properties, as well as changes.
- Distinguish between intensive and extensive properties.
Discovery Process in Chemistry
- Chemistry examines matter, its properties, changes, and energy transformations.
- Matter is defined as anything with mass and occupying space (e.g., air, bodies, earth).
- Matter can change naturally or through human intervention, often involving energy.
Classification of Matter
- Matter is classified into different categories, making it easier to study based on properties.
- Classification based on states: solids, liquids, gases.
- Matter composition can be categorized as either pure substances or mixtures.
States of Matter
- Solid: Particles are closely packed, giving a definite shape and volume.
- Liquid: Particles are closer together with a definite volume but no fixed shape.
- Gas: Particles are far apart, lacking both definite shape and volume.
Physical Properties
- Observable and measurable characteristics that do not alter the matter's composition.
- Used to describe and identify different types of matter.
Physical Changes
- Processes that affect appearance without changing the composition of the matter.
Chemical Properties
- Describe the potential of a substance to undergo chemical change, dictated by its composition.
- Observable only during a reaction when matter transforms into another substance (e.g., combustion).
Chemical Changes
- Involves the transformation of one type of matter into another during a chemical reaction (e.g., formation of rust from iron and oxygen).
Comparison of Physical and Chemical Changes
- Examples of physical changes: freezing water, cutting hair, shredding paper.
- Examples of chemical changes: burning wood, souring milk, moldy bread.
Intensive vs. Extensive Properties
- Intensive Properties: Independent of the amount of matter (e.g., temperature).
- Extensive Properties: Dependent on the amount of matter (e.g., mass and volume).
Composition and Classification of Matter
- Matter divides into pure substances (elements and compounds) and mixtures.
- Pure Substances: Composed of one type of atom or molecule.
- Elements: Simplest form of matter, not decomposable by chemical reactions (e.g., oxygen, gold).
- Compounds: Combinations of two or more elements, decomposable by reactions (e.g., table salt, sugar).
Mixtures: Homogeneous and Heterogeneous
- Mixtures: Combinations of two or more substances retaining their identities without chemical reactions.
- Homogeneous Mixtures: Uniform composition throughout (e.g., salt in water, air).
- Heterogeneous Mixtures: Non-uniform composition with distinct regions (e.g., salad, dirt).
