Matter and it’s PropertiesObjectives:Distinguish between the physical properties and chemical properties of matter.Classify  changes of matter as physical and chemical.Explain the gas, liquid, and solid states in terms of particles.Distinguish between a mixture and a pure substance.
Matter and Its PropertiesMatter – anything that has mass and takes up spaceMass – measure of amount of matterVolume – amount of space and object takes upProperties – describe matter
Basic building blocks of matterAtom – smallest unit of an element that maintains properties of that element    Ex: C, H, AlElement – pure substance made of only on kind of atom                                         Ex: C, H, AlCompound – substance that is made from the atoms of two or more elements that are chemically bonded.                   Ex:  CO2, H2O, C6H12O6
Properties and Changes in matterProperties distinguish between substances and separate themCan reveal identity of unknown substanceExtensive property – depend on the amount of matter that is present            Ex: volume/massIntensive property – do not depend on the amount of matter present                            Ex: melting point, density, ability to conduct electricity
Physical properties and changesPhysical property – characteristic that can be observed or measured without changing the identity of the substance.Example : melting point, boiling point, melt, freeze, torn.Physical Change – change in substance that does not involve a change in the identity of the substanceExamples: grinding, cutting, melting, boiling
Changes of stateSolid – definite volume and shape               Particles of solids are:
Packed together in fixed position,
Held close together by strong attractive forces
Only movement is vibrationChanges of stateLiquid – definite volume and no definite shape               Particles of Liquids are:
Close together but can move past one another
Move more rapidly than those of a solid
Gives the ability to flowChanges of stateGas – no definite volume nor shape               Particles of gases are:
Very far apart from one another
Move very fast
