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.
