LearningGoal
I can describe what matter, pure
substances and mixtures are
I will be able to classify substances
as pure substances or mixtures
Solid
Whatis matter?
Liquid Gas
Matter is any material that occupies space and has mass
It includes all solids, liquids and gases
Mixtures are combinations of two or more pure
substances that are not combined chemically
Mixtures
Dirt
Pure Substance Pure Substance Mixture
PureSubstances
A pure substance is made up of only one type of matter
A pure substance cannot be separated easily
Examples: Carbon dioxide, gold, pure water, salt
Soft drink is a mixture of five different substances,
but it looks and behaves like a single substance
water
sweetener
flavouring
flavouring
carbon dioxide gas
Mixtures
decanting
filtration
Mixtures
Mixtures can be separated in to their
pure substances by techniques
including decanting and filtration
Examples:
Seawater (mixture of salt and water)
1.
Air (mixture of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, oxygen)
2.
Alloy (mixture of metals)
3.
TypesofMixtures
You can see the properties of the different types of matter in a
heterogeneous mixture as no dissolving occurs
Heterogeneous mixtures are also called suspensions
Examples:
Oil and water
1.
Sand and water
2.
Chocolate chip cookies
3.
TypesofMixtures
In a homogenous mixture, you cannot see the difference between the
types of matter. This is because dissolving occurs.
Homogenous mixtures are also called solutions
Examples:
Salt water
1.
Clean air
2.
Milk
3.
