Intro

• Your book uses the example of a care label on your clothes.

• Why is it there?• A tendency to wrinkle is a property of cotton, the

tendency to not wrinkle is a tendency of polyester, the tendency to shrink when washed is a property of wool.

• They all have different properties because they have different compositions.

• These compositions can be broken into pure substances and mixtures

Pure substances• Matter that always has the same

composition is classified as a pure substance, or substance

• Every sample of a given substance has the same properties because a substance has a fixed, uniform composition.

• Salt is a composition of sodium and chloride

• Substances can be classified into two categories, elements and compounds

Matter

Substance

Elements Compounds

Elements

• There are only about 100 elements• Element: a substance that cannot be broken

down into simpler substances• An atom is the smallest particle of an atom• An element has a fixed composition because it

contains only one type of atom.

Elements

• No two elements contain the same type of atom.

• Most elements are solids at room temperature (20 C, 68 F)

Examples

• Aluminum

Example

• Carbon

Elements

• Some elements are gas at room temperature• Oxygen and nitrogen are the main gases we

breathe

Bellwork

• Draw the diagram classifying the different types of matter

• What are elements made of?• What form are most elements in at room

temperature?

Liquid Elements

• Only two elements that are liquid at room temperature: Bromine and mercury, both are very poisonous

Symbols

• The symbols for elements are similar to why scientists use the SI system of measurement.

• Many symbols are based on the Latin name for the element and all scientists agree on the symbol for each element

• *project!: Choose an element you are unfamiliar with. Research the origin of the symbol. Then, research the application or use of the element. Write at least a paragraph detailing this information and turn it in on Thursday

Compounds

• Someone read the first paragraph under Compounds on pg. 40

• A compound is a substance that is made from two or more simpler substances. The simpler substances are either elements or other compounds

Compounds continued

• THE PROPERTIES OF A COMPOUND DIFFER FROM THOSE OF THE SUBSTANCES FROM WHICH IT IS MADE

• Water is a compound made up of the elements hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O)

• Both of these elements are gases at room temperature, but water is a liquid

• Hydrogen can fuel a fire and oxygen is needed to keep it going, but water is used to put it out

COMPOUNDS

• COMPOUNDS ALWAYS CONTAIN TWO OR MORE ELEMENTS JOINED IN A FIXED PORTION

• Silicon dioxide, for example, is the compound found in most light colored sand

• It is made from the elements silicon ( a gray solid) and oxygen.

• It is always made with two oxygen atoms for each silicon atom. (di means 2) Same for water

Mixtures

• Mixtures tend to retain some of the properties of their individual substances

• But the properties of a mixture are less constant than the properties of a substance

• The properties of a mixture can vary because the composition of a mixture is not fixed.

On your own

• Read pages 41-44• Create a chart with descriptive visuals and examples to

help you classify the different types of mixtures• Heterogeneous• Homogeneous• Solutions• Suspension• Colloid• When you finish, complete section 1 in your workbook

Types of mixtures

• Mixtures are combinations of substances• The composition of the substances (unlike

compounds) are not constant• Example: salsa• Heterogeneous mixtures: the parts that make

up the mixture are noticeably different– Example: sand

Bellwork

• Think of a homogeneous and a hetergeneous mixture

Heterogeneous MixturesHetero (different) genus (kind)

Homogeneous mixtures

• Homogeneous mixtures: the substances are so evenly distributed that it is difficult to distinguish one substance from another– Example: a stainless steel spoon is a homogeneous

mixture of iron, chromium and nickel

Homogeneous Mixtures

Solutions, Suspensions, Colloids

• Based on the size of its largest particles, a mixture can be classified as a solution, suspension, or a colloid

Solution

• Solution: when substances dissolve and form a homogeneous mixture– Example: sugar dissolved in water

– Characteristics: • Particles are too small to settle out of the solution• Particles cannot be trapped by a filter• Particles are too small to scatter light

Solution

Suspension

• “Shake Well”• Suspension: a heterogeneous mixture that

separates into layers over time– Example: Sand and water

– Characteristics: • Particles will settle• Particles can be filtered• Particles are large enough to scatter light

Suspension

Colloid

• Colloid: contains some particles that are intermediate in size between the small particles in a solution and the larger particles in a suspension.– Example: homogeneous milk

– Characteristics: • Particles do not separate into layers• You cannot filter to separate parts of a colloid• Particles are large enough to scatter light

Colloid

MixtureCombination of substances

SolutionWhen substances dissolve in a

homogeneous mixture, sugar water

SuspensionHeterogeneous mixture that

separates into layers, sand and water

ColloidHomogeneous mixture with

intermediate particles, milk, fog

HeterogeneousParts are noticeably different

, sand

HomogeneousParts are evenly distributed,

stainless steel spoon

Bellwork 8-29

• Give an example of a solution, suspension, and a colloid

Examples of physical properties

• Physical property: any characteristic of a material that can be observed or measured without changing the composition of the substances in the material.– Viscosity– Conductivity– Malleability– Hardness– Melting point– Boiling point– Density

Viscosity

• Viscosity: the tendency of a liquid to keep from flowing-its resistance to flowing

• The greater the viscosity the slower the liquid flows

Viscosity

• Viscosity usually decreases when heated• Importance? Think motor oil…

Conductivity

• Conductivity: a material’s ability to allow heat to flow

• Materials with high conductivity (metals) are conductors

• If a material is a good conductor of heat it will usually do the same for electricity

• So why do we stir soup with a wooden spoon?

Conductive materials

Malleability

• Malleability: the ability of a solid to be hammered without shattering.

• Most metals are malleable• Solids that shatter when struck are brittle• Give an example of a malleable and brittle

material.

Malleability

Hardness

• Hardness: how hard a material is• To compare hardness you can try to scratch

one object with another• Diamond is the hardest material known

Hardness

Melting and boiling points

• Melting Point: The temperature at which a substance changes from a solid to liquid

• Boiling Point: The temperature at which a substance boils

• What are the melting and boiling points of water in Celsius?

• Are there any factors that can affect boiling point?

Melting/Boiling Points

Density

• Density: can be used to test the purity of a substance

• Examples include methanol for bike racing

Using Physical Properties to Identify Materials

• 1. Decide which properties to test• 2. Perform tests on unknown samples• 3. Compare data results with data reported for

known materials

• Example: crime investigation

Using Properties to Choose Materials

• Properties determine which materials are chosen for which uses.

• Wood shoelaces?

Using Properties to Separate Mixtures

• Two properties are used to separate:– Filtration– Distillation

• Filtration: a process that separates materials based on the size and of their particles.

• What are some examples of filtration?

Homework

• Finish section 1 in your work/study book• Finish your research on your symbol

Chemical Properties

• Chemical property: any ability to produce change in the composition of matter

• Chemical properties can only be observed when the substances in a sample of matter are changing into different substances.

• Example: Paraffin wax in a candle (made of compounds containing hydrogen and carbon).– As the compounds burn they combine with oxygen and

form water and carbon dioxide

Chemical Properties

• Flammability and Reactivity are two chemical properties of matter.

• Flammability: a material’s ability to burn in the presence of oxygen

Why does it matter?

• Think of some reasons why the flammability of a material or substance is important?

Reactivity

• Reactivity: how readily a substance combines with other substances

• Oxygen and iron are highly reactive substances.

• What happens when iron reacts with oxygen and water?

• What are some other materials that rust?

Rust

Reactivity• Nitrogen has a low reactivity

• Because of this it is used to displace the reactivity of other substances

• Example: water tanks that stabilize ships are filled with seawater.

• The oxygen in the water reacts with the iron in the steel and creates rust

• Japanese engineers have pumped nitrogen in these tanks to displace the oxygen and decrease rust.

Recognizing chemical changes

• Chemical change occurs when a substance reacts and forms one or more new substances.

• Can you think of examples of chemical change?

Recognizing change

• Think of things that change chemically.

• What are some “side effects” of chemical change?

Recognizing Chemical Change

• 3 types of evidence for chemical change:– 1. Change in Color– 2. Production of gas– 3. Formation of a precipitate

Change in Color

• A change in color is a clue that a chemical change has produced at least one new substance

• Copper + water+ Oxygen=Patina

Production of a Gas

• Can you think of an example of a production of gas when compounds or substances are combined?

Production of Gas

• Many gas reactions include carbon dioxide.• When baking soda and vinegar are combined

they form bubbles of carbon dioxide• Baking soda in a cake combines with an acid

and creates bubbles which make the cake rise

Formation of a Precipitate

• Any solid that forms and separates from a liquid mixture is called a precipitate

• What are some examples?

Formation of a Precipitate

• When acid is added to milk the proteins undergo a chemical change that alters their structure, causing them to stick together in clumps

• These clumps are cheese!

Chemical or Physical Change?

• Always ask, “are different substances present after the change takes place?”

• If not, then it is a physical change• Chemical change= the composition of the matter

changes• Physical change=the composition of the matter

remains the same.• What are some examples of physical change that

have evidence of chemical change?
