Atoms, Matter & Molecules
Science for 4th & 5th Grade!
ObservationsDirect evidence obtained
through use of the senses.
InferenceA hypothesis, drawn from
observations, that attempts to explain or to
make sense of the observations
ATOMThe smallest particle into which an element may be divided and still be the same substance.
ATOMThe smallest part you can break Hydrogen (an element) into and still have Hydrogen.
Matter
Anything that has mass and takes up space.Energy is NOT matter
Matter is divided into 4 components:
Elements Compounds Mixtures Solutions
ELEMENTAll elements are on the Periodic TableAll matter is made of an element or a combination of elementsHydrogen, Oxygen, Gold
A substance that consists of only one kind of atom and that cannot be chemically separated into other substances.
Elements:E l e m e n t s c a n n o t b e c h a n g e d i n t o s i m p l e r s u b s t a n c e s b y a n y c h e m i c a l p r o c e s s . E l e m e n t s a r e m a d e u p o f a t o m s .

substances that can be broken substances that can be broken down by chemical methods down by chemical methods
When they are broken down, When they are broken down, the pieces have completely the pieces have completely different properties than the different properties than the compound. compound. Made of molecules- two or Made of molecules- two or more atomsmore atoms
Compounds:Compounds:
Compounds:They are pure substances put
together by chemically combining elements
Not all combinations of elements
are compounds though– some
can be mixtures!
So remember… ELEMENTS contain only one kind
of atom
There are 109 different kinds of elements
1-109 = atomic # of the elements.

SolutionsSolutions Like all mixtures, they keep the Like all mixtures, they keep the
properties of the components. properties of the components. Can be separated by physical Can be separated by physical

but can be separated.but can be separated.
Two techniques for separating solutions:
#1. Evaporation: changing
from a liquid to vapor state– leaves behind
the other component.
#2. Distillation: Process used to
drive vapor from liquid by heating
Great for separating two or more liquids which have different boiling points.
MIXTURE Matter that can be
physically separated into component parts
It is two or more kinds of matter that have separate identities because of their different properties.
When different parts of a
mixture can no longer be
separated into simpler
substances, we call each
component a PURE SUBSTANCE
There are two types of mixtures: Heterogeneous-Heterogeneous-
mixture is not the same mixture is not the same from place to place. from place to place. Chocolate chip Chocolate chip

Homogeneous-Homogeneous- same composition same composition throughout. throughout. Kool-aid, air. Kool-aid, air.
•Every part keeps its Every part keeps its properties.properties.
Mixtures: Matter that consists of two or more
substances mixed together: but not chemically combined or bonded.
Examples: concrete, Sea Water, a bag full of different colored marbles..
There are 2 types of Mixtures Heterogeneous Mixture:
a mixture that does not appear the same throughout. (the individual substances are visible).
Ex. Soil, Raisin Brand, Chicken Noodle Soup.
Heterogeneous Mixture: a mixture that appears uniform throughout. (well mixed).
Ex. Stainless Steel (Cr, Fe),

What about MOLECULES?These are
MULTI-ATOM particles
They are the smallest particle of a substance that still retains the properties of that substance and is composed of 2 or more atoms.
MOLECULEParticle of matter that is made up of two or more atoms.
MOLECULEThe smallest part you can break water (a compound) into and still have water.
