Study Notes
Properties of Matter
- Extensive properties depend on the amount of matter; examples include mass and volume.
- Intensive properties depend on the type of matter; examples include color and hardness.
Physical Properties of Copper
- Reddish-yellow color
- Good conductor of heat and electricity
- Malleable
- Melting point: 1084°C
- Boiling point: 2562°C
Distinguishing Liquids
- Melting point and boiling point can differentiate between water and ethanol.
Gas Comparison
- Chlorine and oxygen cannot be distinguished by state, as both are gases.
Physical States at Room Temperature
- Gold: solid
- Gasoline: liquid
- Neon: gas
- Olive oil: liquid
- Oxygen: gas
- Mercury: liquid
Particle Arrangements in States of Matter
- Solids: particles are tightly packed in an orderly arrangement.
- Liquids: particles are close but not orderly.
- Gases: particles are relatively far apart.
Mixture Classifications
- Homogeneous mixtures have a uniform composition, while heterogeneous mixtures have a non-uniform composition with two or more phases.
- Solutions are classified as homogeneous, containing one phase.
Example Mixtures
- Chocolate-chip ice cream: heterogeneous
- Green ink: homogeneous
- Cake batter: can vary (depends on mixing)
- Cooking oil: homogeneous
Distillation Process
- The goal of distillation is to separate components of a solution.
- Accomplished by boiling the solution to produce vapor, then condensing that vapor back into liquid, leaving dissolved solids behind.
Distinguishing Elements from Compounds
- Elements cannot be separated by chemical means, while compounds can.
Elements in Compounds
- Ammonia (NH3): nitrogen, hydrogen
- Potassium oxide (K2O): potassium, oxygen
- Sucrose (C12H22O11): carbon, hydrogen, oxygen
- Calcium sulfide (CaS): calcium, sulfur
Water Composition
- The formula H2O indicates water contains two parts hydrogen for every one part oxygen.
Physical vs Chemical Changes
- Physical change: bending a copper wire (no new substance formed).
- Chemical change: burning charcoal (color change indicates reaction).
- Chemical change: bread dough rising (production of gas due to yeast).
- Physical change: dissolving sugar in water (no new substance formed).
