Study Notes
States of Matter
- Matter exists in three fundamental states: solid, liquid, and gas.
- Solids have a definite shape and volume.
- Liquids have a definite volume but take the shape of their container.
- Gases have neither a definite shape nor a definite volume.
Pure Substances
- Pure substances are made up of only one type of element or compound.
- Elements are made up of identical atoms.
- Compounds are made up of two or more elements combined chemically.
Mixtures
- Mixtures are combinations of two or more substances in which each substance retains its individual properties.
- There are homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures.
- Homogeneous mixtures have a uniform composition throughout, meaning every part of the mixture has the same properties.
- Heterogeneous mixtures have a non-uniform composition, meaning different parts of the mixture have different properties.
Metals
- Metals are typically good conductors of heat and electricity, are ductile (can be drawn into wires), malleable (can be hammered into sheets), have high density, and are usually not brittle.
- Metals are typically solids at room temperature.
Nonmetals
- Nonmetals are typically poor conductors of heat and electricity.
- Nonmetals are not ductile or malleable; they are often brittle.
- Nonmetals often have a low density.
- Nonmetals can exist as solids, liquids, or gases at room temperature..
Metalloids
- Metalloids have properties of both metals and nonmetals.
- Metalloids are sometimes semi-conductors of heat and electricity.
Density
- Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume.
- Less dense objects float on top of more dense objects in liquids.
Physical Change
- A physical change alters the state or form of a substance without changing its chemical composition.
- Examples include changes in state (melting, freezing, vaporization), changes in shape, and dissolving.
Chemical Change
- A chemical change alters the chemical composition of a substance.
- Examples include burning, rusting, and reacting.
Forces and Motion
- Force is a push or a pull that can cause an object to move, stop moving, or change direction.
- Friction is a force that opposes motion between two surfaces in contact.
- Gravity is a force that pulls objects towards each other.
Energy
- Energy is the ability to do work.
- Potential energy is stored energy.
- Kinetic energy is energy of motion.
- Different types of energy include mechanical, electrical, chemical, thermal, light, and sound.
Energy Transfer
- Energy can be transferred from one object to another or from one form to another.
- Energy transfer can occur across systems or objects (like in food chains).
Waves
- Waves transmit energy through a medium or space.
- Transverse waves vibrate perpendicular to the direction of wave motion.
- Longitudinal waves vibrate parallel to the direction of wave motion.
Earth's Seasons
- Earth's orbit around the sun and its tilt causes seasonal changes on earth.
Tides
- Tides are the rise and fall of sea levels caused by the gravitational pull of the moon and sun.
Earth's Spheres
- The Earth is made up of four main spheres: geosphere (Earth's land), atmosphere (air), hydrosphere (water), and biosphere (life).
Rock Cycle
- The rock cycle describes the processes that transform rocks from one type to another.
- Processes include melting, cooling, weathering, erosion, compaction, and cementation.
Conservation
- Conservation involves using resources responsibly and preserving them for future generations.
- Ways to conserve resources include efficiency, technology, and changes in individual behavior.
