Study Notes
Matter and Its Properties
- Matter is defined as anything that occupies space and has mass.
- Exists in three states: solid, liquid, gas.
Properties of Matter
- Property: A characteristic or quality used to describe matter.
- Qualitative Properties: Observable through the five senses; described in words.
- Examples include color, texture, state of matter, odour, lustre, hardness, clarity, and taste.
- Quantitative Properties: Involve numerical measurements.
- Examples include mass, length, melting point, density, time, and specific heat capacity.
Physical and Chemical Properties
- Physical Properties: Do not involve the formation of a new substance; can be qualitative or quantitative.
- Example: Mercury is an odourless liquid, has lustre, low water solubility, freezes at -39°C.
- Characteristic Physical Properties: Unique properties that help in identifying substances.
- Example: Mercury (density 13.5 g/cm³, melting point -39°C) vs. Water (density 1.0 g/cm³, melting point 0°C).
Chemical Properties
- Involve the formation of new substances.
- Examples: Sodium reacts violently with water, iron rusts, combustion of alcohol releases heat.
Changes in Matter
- Physical Change: Alteration in physical form without changing substance identity.
- Examples: Melting ice into water; all state changes (freezing, boiling, condensation, sublimation).
- Chemical Change: Alters the identity of a substance, resulting in new particles.
- Example: Electrolysis of water produces hydrogen and oxygen gases.
Exothermic and Endothermic Changes
- Exothermic Changes: Emit heat; can be physical or chemical.
- Example: Water freezing releases heat.
- Endothermic Changes: Absorb heat; can also be physical or chemical.
- Example: Dissolving ammonium nitrate in cold packs absorbs heat.
Signs of Chemical Change
- Some indicators are change in color, production of gas, formation of a precipitate, and temperature change.
Classification of Matter
- Pure Substances: Uniform composition; cannot be separated by physical methods.
- Includes Elements (simplest forms) and Compounds (combinations of elements).
- Impure Substances (Mixtures): Composed of two or more substances; can be separated physically.
- Divided into Heterogeneous Mixtures (different phases, e.g., salad) and Homogeneous Mixtures (one phase, e.g., salt water).
Types of Mixtures
- Mechanical Mixture: Components can be identified; e.g., chocolate chip cookie.
- Suspensions: Particles settle over time; e.g., orange juice.
- Colloids: Particles do not settle; e.g., fog and milk.
Examples of Matter Classification
- Classifications may include determining whether substances are pure (elements or compounds) or mixtures (heterogeneous or homogeneous).
