Questions and Answers

Differentiate between a homogeneous mixture and a heterogeneous mixture.

A homogeneous mixture has even distribution, while a heterogeneous mixture has uneven distribution.

Explain the main difference between a compound and a mixture.

A mixture is two or more substances that are physically combined, and a compound is two or more substances that are chemically combined.

Explain the difference between physical properties and chemical properties, and list three examples of each.

<p>A physical property can be observed directly or measured without changing the chemical identity of the substance (e.g., mass, volume, shape).

Study Notes

Mixtures vs. Compounds

  • Homogeneous mixtures have a uniform composition, while heterogeneous mixtures have distinct, separate components.
  • A mixture is a physical combination of two or more substances, while a compound is a chemical combination of two or more substances.

Examples of Mixtures and Compounds

  • Table salt is classified as a compound, formed by the chemical combination of sodium and chlorine.
  • Milk is a heterogeneous mixture, consisting of different components such as fat and water.
  • Lemonade is a homogeneous mixture, where the components are evenly distributed.
  • Water and carbon dioxide are both compounds, made of chemically combined elements.

Elements

  • Oxygen is considered an element, a fundamental substance that cannot be broken down into simpler substances.

Types of Changes

  • Physical properties can be observed without altering the substance's chemical identity (e.g., mass, volume, shape).
  • Chemical properties require a change in the substance's chemical identity to be observed, such as toxicity, flammability, and combustibility.
  • Physical changes include boiling, crumpling, freezing, evaporating, sawing, and crushing, affecting a substance's physical attributes.
  • Chemical changes involve alterations that lead to a new substance, evidenced by properties such as light release, temperature changes, odor changes, sudden color changes, gas production, and the formation of solids.

Evidence of Chemical Changes

  • Indications that a chemical change has occurred include:
    • Release of light.
    • Temperature change.
    • Change in odor.
    • Sudden color change.
    • Production of gas.
    • Formation of a solid (precipitate).
