Chemistry Matter Unit What is matter? What is chemistry? What is the organization of matter? What is the nature of matter?
What is NOT Matter? Energy!
Types of Energies Mechanical Chemical Heat Atomic Light Electrical
Is Air matter? What are the two criteria for matter? Does it take up space? Does it have mass?
What is chemistry? Chemistry is the study of the composition, structure, and the properties of matter and the changes it undergoes. All chemical reactions involve energy.
What is the composition of matter? Matter Pure Matter Substance Impure Matter Mixture
What is a pure substance? A pure substance has a definite composition (proportion). The composition of a substance will have the same percent of elements no matter where the sample was obtained. Water from Lake Okechobee and water from the Atlantic Ocean (once cleaned up) will have the same composition of hydrogen to oxygen. Gold is the same as other gold (once cleaned up).
What is a pure substance? A pure substance, by definition, is an element or a compound. A container with an almost pure compound:
Pure Substance Pure Substance Element Compound
What is an element? a pure substance made of only one kind of atom A substance that cannot be decomposed any farther by simple chemical means An element has a definite composition. Gold from South Africa is the same, when purified, as a sample from California.
Periodic Table of Elements Most elements on the periodic chart are metals. Elements through 114 but not 113 have been discovered or made.
Elemental Samples Zinc, copper, lead, carbon, sulfur
What is a compound? A compound is a substance that is made from the atoms of two or more elements that are chemically bonded. The definition is actually more involved than this.
What is a compound? A compound is a substance that cannot be decomposed any farther by simple physical means. A compound has a definite composition by mass. A compound is made up of two or more elements chemically combined.
What is a compound? A compound no longer has the properties of its constituent elements. Table salt, NaCl or sodium chloride, is a compound of the element sodium and the element chlorine.
Sodium
Sodium metal Soft, can be cut with a knife Shiny Good conductor of electricity Very reactive
Sodium in water
Chlorine gas
Chlorine gas Greenish gas Poisonous Heavier than air
Sodium in chlorine gas
Sodium chloride, NaCl Sodium chloride dissolves in water rather than reacts with water. Sodium chloride is a white solid, not a poisonous green gas. Sodium chloride is its own substance with its own properties, not those of either sodium or chlorine.
Samples of Other Compounds Sucrose (table sugar), Sodium Chloride, Water, Copper(II) sulfate
Colored Compounds Cobalt(II) chloride, Iron(II) sulfate, Potassium dichromate, Potassium chromate, Nickel(II) nitrate, copper(ii) sulfate
What is the composition of matter? Matter Pure Substance Impure Matter Mixture
Impure Matter - Mixture A mixture is a blend of two or more kinds of matter, each of which retains its own identity and properties. A mixture is made up of two or more substances that are not chemically combined.
Mixtures Mixtures can be separated by simple physical means. Two mixtures containing the same substances may not have the same proportions. Example: Very salty water versus barely salty water. Very sweet sugar water versus slightly sweet sugar water.
Water and Dye Mixture Two mixtures of the same substances may have different proportions.
Mixtures Mixtures Homogeneous Mixture Heterogeneous Mixture?
Solutions Mixtures Mixture = a blend of two or more kinds of matter, each of which retains its own identity and properties a) homogeneous mixture = a mixture that is uniform in composition throughout Ex: Food coloring and water b) heterogeneous mixture = a mixture that is NOT uniform in composition throughout Ex: Oil and water
Heterogeneous Mixtures Sand and water on the left and sand and gravel on the right.
Heterogeneous Mixture
Types of Mixtures: 1) solution = a homogeneous mixture 2) suspension = a mixture in which the particles are so large that they settle out unless the mixture is constantly stirred or agitated Heterogeneous mixture Ex: Sand and water 3) colloid = a mixture consisting of particles that are intermediate in size between those in solutions and those in suspensions Heterogeneous mixture Ex: Milk
Colloidal Suspension Fog
Tyndall Effect
THE NATURE OF SOLUTIONS: 1) Solvent = the substance that does the dissolving in a solution a) Typically present in the greatest amount b) Typically a liquid c) Water is the most common or universal solvent 2) Solute = substance being dissolved in a solution a) Typically present in the least amount b) Typically a solid
9 Possible Solution Combinations:
Factors Affecting the Rate of Dissolving (Increase Solution Rate): 1) Grinding: increases surface area 2) Stirring: allows solvent continual contact with solute 3) Heating: increases kinetic energy; increases mixing
SOLUBILITY: 1) Solubility = quantity of solute that will dissolve in specific amount of solvent at a certain temperature. (pressure must also be specified for gases). a) Ex: 204 g of sugar will dissolve in 100 g of water at 20 C b) soluble and insoluble are relative terms c) solubility should NOT be confused with the rate at which a substance dissolves 2) saturated solution = a stable solution in which the maximum amount of solute has been dissolved.
3) solution equilibrium = state where the solute is dissolving at the same rate that the solute is coming out of solution (crystallizing). a) Opposing processes of the dissolving and crystallizing of a solute occur at equal rates. b) solute + solvent solution
4) unsaturated solution = a solution that contains less solute than a saturated solution under existing conditions 5) supersaturated solution = a solution that temporarily contains more than the saturation amount of solute than the solvent can hold (unstable)
3 FACTORS EFFECTING SOLUBILITY: The extent to which a given solute dissolves in a solvent depends on the identity of the solute and solvent and also on the existing conditions of pressure & temperature 1) Nature of solute and solvent a) Like dissolves like o Polarity = rule or of nonpolarity of
Solvent-Solute Combinations:
2) Pressure: a)pressure has little effect on the solubility of liquids or solids in liquid solvents. b)the solubility of a gas in a liquid solvent INCREASES when pressure increases. It is a direct relationship.
3) Temperature: a)the solubility of a gas in a liquid solvent DECREASES with an increase in temperature. b)the solubility of a solid in a liquid solvent MOST OFTEN increases with an increase in temperature. However, solubility changes vary widely with temperature changes sometimes decreasing with temperature increases.

Chemistry Vocabulary An atom is the smallest unit of an element that maintains the properties of that element An atom is made up of electrons, protons, and neutrons as well as other particles. Protons and neutrons are made up of quarks.
Chemistry Vocabulary A atom is made up of a nucleus and particles outside the nucleus called electrons. Electrons are negatively charged particles. The mass of an electron is about 1800 times smaller than that of the proton and neutron.
Chemistry Vocabulary The nucleus is the tiny positive core of the atom. Two of the particles in the nucleus are the proton and the neutron. The proton is a positively charged particle.
Chemistry Vocabulary What is wrong with this commonly used picture? The nucleus is 1/10000 times smaller than the atom. The atom is mostly empty space.
Chemistry Vocabulary Proton: The charge on a proton is equal in magnitude but opposite in sign to the charge on an electron. A proton is made up of three quarks. Two quarks have a +2/3 charge. One quark has a -1/3 charge.
Chemistry Vocabulary The mass of a proton is approximately 1800 times heavier than an electron. ***The number of protons present is what determines the type of atom.*** If the number of protons change, an atom of a different element is formed.
Chemistry Vocabulary The number of protons found in the nucleus is known as the atomic number. Hydrogen with an atomic number of 1 has only one proton. If it had 2, it would be helium. Uranium with an atomic number of 92 has 92 protons.
Chemistry Vocabulary A neutron is an uncharged particle found in the nucleus. The mass of a neutron is almost the same as the mass of a proton. A neutron is made of three quarks. One quark has a +2/3 charge. Two quarks have a -1/3 charge.
Chemistry Vocabulary Two atoms of the same element can have differing numbers of neutrons. These are called isotopes. Hydrogen has three isotopes: Hydrogen with 1 proton and 0 neutrons Deuterium with 1 proton and 1 neutron Tritium with 1 proton and 2 neutrons
Chemistry Vocabulary The different masses of these isotopes give them different properties such as melting and boiling points and reactivities and stabilities. Regular uranium is not radioactive enough for a nuclear fuel. Only certain isotopes of uranium will work.
Chemistry Vocabulary The mass number is the total number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of the atom. The mass number is not found on the periodic table. The masses on the table are the weighted averages of the isotopes.
