Study Notes

Properties of Matter

  • Physical Property: An observable and measurable attribute of a substance without altering its identity.
  • Melting Point: The specific temperature and pressure at which a solid becomes a liquid.
  • Boiling Point: The specific temperature and pressure where a liquid transitions into a gas.
  • Density: Defined as the mass of a substance divided by its volume, represented by the formula D = m/v.
  • Color: Can indicate a chemical change but is not a reliable identifier on its own.

Chemical Properties

  • Chemical Property: Observed when substances react with others, resulting in the formation of new substances.
  • Flammability: A chemical property indicating the ability of a substance to combust rapidly in the presence of oxygen.
  • Rusting: A slow chemical reaction, particularly involving iron, with oxygen leading to corrosion.
  • Reactivity: Refers to how readily a substance combines chemically with others.

Examples of Properties

  • Physical Properties of Matter: Include melting point, boiling point, density, color, conductivity, ductility, and malleability.
  • Chemical Properties of Matter: Include the ability to burn, rust, and reactivity with other substances.

Additional Physical Properties

  • Conductivity: The capacity of a substance to conduct heat or electricity.
  • Ductility: The ability to be drawn into wires.
  • Malleability: The ability to be shaped or flattened without breaking.
  • Texture: Describes the feel of a substance's surface.
  • Odor: A change in odor can signal a chemical change.
  • Magnetism: The attraction a substance has to a magnetic field.
  • Solubility: The ease with which a substance dissolves in another.

Chemical Change Indicators

  • Signs of Chemical Change: Include color changes, odor changes, gas production, and heat generation.
  • Precipitate: A solid product formed during a chemical reaction involving two liquids.

States of Matter

  • State of Matter: Describes matter in its solid, liquid, or gas forms.

Thermal and Electrical Conductivity

  • Thermal Conductivity: The ability of a substance to transfer heat to another material.
  • Electrical Conductivity: The capability of a substance to conduct electricity; commonly high in metals.

Luster

  • Luster: A physical property describing whether a substance appears shiny or dull, with metals typically exhibiting a shiny appearance.
