Study Notes

  • Matter can be pure or a mixture.
  • The type of particles an object is made of determines its classification.
  • The smallest chemical units of matter determine if something is classified as an element, compound, or mixture.
  • The drawings in model 1 show atoms touching and it represents that they are held together by chemical bonds.
  • Pure substances have identical particles.
  • Mixtures have different types of particles present.
  • Elements are pure substances made of only one type of atom.
  • Compounds are pure substances made from two or more types of atoms.
  • Physical separation methods don't require a chemical change.
  • Chemical separation methods do require a chemical change where chemical bonds are broken and/or formed.
