Mixtures

• A combination of two or more pure substances in which each pure substance retains its own individual chemical properties– physical combination– can be separated physically – has no definite ratio

SECTION 3.3 – Mixtures

Homogeneous Mixtures

• Mixture with a constant composition throughout– each and every part is identical– different part cannot typically be identified– also called a solution

• Also known as solutions, which can contain solids, liquids, or gases.

• A solid-solid solution known as steel is called an alloy, which is a mixture of metal & nonmetal.

SECTION 3.3 – Mixtures

Heterogeneous Mixtures

• Mixture that is not blended smoothly throughout.– each part is NOT identical– parts of mixture are typically easy to identify

Physically mixed, can be separated by physical means.

Chemically reacted, cannot be separated by physical means.

Separating Mixtures

• Filtration– uses a porous

barrier to separate a solid from a liquid

• Distillation– uses the

differences in boiling points

Separating Mixtures

• Crystallization– results in the formation of pure

solid particles of a substance from a solution containing a dissolved substance

• Chromatography (1) (2)

– separates components of a mixture on the basis of the tendency of each to travel or be drawn across the surface of another material

SECTION 3.3 – Mixtures

Separating Mixtures

• Solubility– Water is added to the mixture and one part of the

mixture dissolves into the water and the remaining component can be filtered out.

– The water & substance solution must then go through distillation or crystallization to remove the dissolved substance from the water.

– SALT DISSOLVING IN WATER (1) (2)

• Magnetism– Process by which parts are separated out based on

their magnetic properties

SECTION 3.3 – Mixtures

Elements

• A pure substance that cannot be separated into simpler substances by physical or chemical means.– 91 occur naturally– Allotropes- element is found in more than one form.

• Ex. Carbon- diamond & graphite, Oxygen- O2 & O3.

– Diatomic elements- found as a pair with itself• Ex. O2, N2, F2, Cl2, H2, I2, Br2

– Expressed with a chemical symbol

-one, two or three letters

-only the first letter is capitalized

-organized on the Periodic Table

SECTION 3.4 – Elements & Compounds

Compounds

• Chemical combination of two or more elements– definite ratio– can only be separated by chemical changes– Compounds that occur naturally are more stable than

the individual component elements.– properties of a compound are different from the

properties of the elements that make itWater

Law of Definite Proportions

• A compound is always composed of the same elements in the same proportion by mass

• Percent mass of element

by Mass =

mass of compound X 100

Energy

• The ability to do work or produce heat.

• Energy exists as 2 basic forms: potential energy & kinetic energy.– Potential energy- stored energy or energy due

to the composition or position of an object.– Kinetic energy- energy of motion.

• Work = Force x Distance

Conservation of Energy

• States that in any chemical reaction or physical process, energy can be converted from one form to another, but it is neither created nor destroyed. It can be accounted for as heat, stored energy, or work.

• Heat- energy transferred from an object at higher temperature to one at a lower temp.

• Temperature- measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a system.
