  • Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space
  • Physical phases of matter include: solid, liquid, gas, and plasma
  • A pure substance has a fixed composition and identical properties in all samples
  • An element is a pure substance that contains only one type of atom with the same number of protons or atomic number
  • A compound is a pure substance composed of two or more elements chemically bonded in a definite, fixed ratio of mass
  • A mixture is a type of matter composed of varying portions of two or more substances that are physically mixed, not chemically bonded
  • Types of mixtures:
    • Heterogeneous mixtures have two components that can be observed and are non-uniform
    • Heterogeneous mixtures can be separated by normal filtration or ultrafiltration
  • Types of heterogeneous mixtures:

    Suspension
    • A mixture of liquids with particles of solid that may not dissolve in the liquid
  • Colloid:
    • A mixture where very small particles of one substance are evenly distributed throughout another substance
  • Homogeneous mixture:
    • Formed by the combination of a solute in a solvent
    • Cannot be seen as separate entities either by the naked eye, through a microscope, or an ultra microscope
  • Solubility:
    • The amount of solute that will dissolve in a specified volume or mass of solvent (at a given temperature) to produce a saturated solution
    • Depends on the temperature of the solution
  • Solution:
    • A homogeneous type of mixture of two or more substances
    • A mixture of a solvent and a solute
  • Solute:
    • The minor component in a solution, dissolved in the solvent
  • Solvent:
    • Able to dissolve other substances
    • the liquid in which a solute is dissolved to form a solution
  • Seperating Mixture1.) SedimentationA very basic process which allows the suspended. materials to settle.
  • 2.) Filtration-seperating a solid or suspension from a liquid.
  • 3.) Charcoal FiltrationA process wherein a liquid or gas is passed through a layer of activated charcoal.
  • 4.) Evaporation-Obtaining the solute from a solution.
  • 5.) Distillation-Obtaining the solvent from a solution.
  • 6.) Fractional Distillation
    -Seperating on liquid from liquids that have a mixture of different different boiling points.
    • 7). Chromatography
    • seperating out one color from a mixture of colors.
  • Arrangement of clements in the modern periodic table
    Groups
    Elements in vertical column.
  • Periods•the horizontal rows in the periodic table. there are 7 periods.
  • Family• Elements in the periodic table Family A and Family B.
  • Metalloids•Elements found beside the zigzag line.•They seperate metals from non-metals.Metallbids can have both properties of metal and non-metals.
  • parts of atom
  • -atomic number
    -atomic symbol
    -atomic name
    -atomic weight/mass
  • Metals•Metals are good conductors of electricity.All the S, D and F block elements are metals.
  • Non- MetalsPoor conductors of electricity.All P block elements are non-metals.•Elements other the zigzag line not including the noble gas.
