Study Notes
Matter Classification
- Matter is classified into pure substances and mixtures.
- Pure substances have a fixed, constant composition.
- Pure substances' properties are fixed and constant.
- Component parts of pure substances cannot be separated by physical means.
- Mixtures have a variable composition.
- Mixture properties vary since components retain individual properties.
- Mixture components can be separated by physical means.
Pure Substances
- Pure substances are classified into elements and compounds.
Elements
- Elements are the simplest form of matter.
- Elements cannot be broken down into simpler parts by ordinary chemical or physical means (excluding nuclear reactions).
- The smallest particle having the same properties as the element is an atom.
- Each element is composed of only one kind of atom.
Compounds
- Compounds are composed of more than one kind of atom.
- Atoms in compounds are chemically combined in fixed proportions by mass.
- Compounds cannot be separated into their components by physical means.
- Compound properties differ from the properties of their constituent elements.
Mixtures
- Mixtures consist of two or more substances.
- Substances in mixtures are physically combined.
- Proportions of substances in mixtures vary.
- Mixture components retain their own properties.
Homogeneous Mixtures
- Homogeneous mixtures have uniform properties throughout.
- Component parts cannot be distinguished.
- Solutions are examples of homogeneous mixtures.
Heterogeneous Mixtures
- Heterogeneous mixtures are non-uniform.
- Component parts can be distinguished.
- Suspensions and colloids are examples of heterogeneous mixtures.
