CHANGES IN MATTER

    Cards (28)

    • 2 TYPES OF CHANGES
      1. CHEMICAL CHANGE
      2. PHYSICAL CHANGE
    • Are those in which extrinsic properties (size, shape, mass, etc) of matter are altered.
      physical change
    • They do not involve changes in the composition so that a substance retains its identity.
      No new substance is formed.
      Physical change
    • Alters the composition of the substance.
      Substances that tend to react chemically produce new substance/s that have different composition and properties.
      Chemical change
    • Changes in matter are always accompanied by energy changes.
    • Accompanied by absorption of heat
      Endothermic change
    • Is the process in which solid particles in a liquid are removed from or separated by the use of a filter medium that permits the liquid to pass through but retains the solid particles.

      Filtration
    • the liquid that passes through the filter and is collected in a container.
      filtrate
    • is the solid particles that remain on the filter medium
      residue
    • The components of a liquid mixture are separated on the basis of the difference in their boiling temperatures.
      distillation
    • In simplest form, distillation involves the mixture and collecting the vapor in a condensation vessel, where it turns back into a liquid.
    • The first vapor are those of the substances whose boiling point is the lowest.
    • the liquid that distills off
      distillate
    • It is the technique used to separate homogeneous mixtures where there are one or more dissolved salts.
      evaporation
    • The method derives the liquid components from the solid components.
      Process typically involves heating the mixture until no more liquid remains.
      evaporation
    • the solid remains on the evaporating dish.
      residue
    • Method is suitable for separating a soluble solid from a liquid.
      evaporation
    • is a process used to separate and purify solids.
      crystallization
    • It is done by dissolving the impure sold in a small amount of solvent heated at an elevated temperature and allowing the hot solution to cool slowly at room temperature (slow cooling) or rapidly by placing it in a ice bath (rapid cooling).

      crystallization
    • The solid that crystallizes out after cooling can be separated by filtration or decantation if the crystals formed are of larger size.
    • a separation technique where a device called centrifuge is used to rapidly spin liquid samples.
      centrifugation
    • The solid that separates out is called residue.
    • Sedimentation allows solid particles in suspension to sink or settle out of the liquid in which they are suspended in response to the force due to gravity.
    • decantation is a laboratory process used to separate the components of liquid-solid or immiscible liquid-liquid mixtures by allowing the components to settle and separate by gravity
    • It is the process of separating components of mixtures by using magnets to attract magnetic materials leaving behind the non-magnetic materials.

      magnetic separation
    • It is the process of separating a solid-solid mixture where one component is changed from solid to vapor without passing through the liquid state when heated under the normal atmospheric condition.
      sublimation
    • On cooling, the vapor goes back to the solid state.
      sublimation
    • The other component, usually an impurity, is non-sublimable and therefore remains a solid and is called residue.
