Pure Substance
Has
distinct
properties
and
fixed
composition
Pure Substance
They
can
be
separated
(compound) by
chemical
process.
Element
Composed of only
one
kind of
atom.
Element
It cannot be
decomposed
into
simple
substances.
Compound
Substance
composed of
two/more
kinds of atom
chemically
combined.
Mixture
A combination of
two
or more
pure
substances.
Mixture
has
variable
composition.
Mixture
can be separated by
physical
process
Each substance in a mixture retains its
chemical
identity and
properties.
Homogenous
Mixture
that is
uniformly
distributed.
Homogenous
Same composition of
particles
throughout.
Homogenous
is a
one phase.
Heterogenous
Mixture that is not uniformly distributed.
Heterogenous
Different composition of particles throughout.
Heterogenous
composed of two or more phases.
Evaporation
The process by which
water
changes from a
liquid
to a
gas
or
vapor.
Distillation
The process of
separating components
of a
mixture
with
different boiling points
Decantation
The process of
separating mixtures
which allows a mixture of
solids
and
liquids
or two
immiscible
liquids to settle and separate by
gravity
Centrifugation
The method of
separating
finely suspended particles in a liquid by whirling the liquid at a very
high
speed.
Principle of
Centrifugation
Difference
in
density
Filtration
The method for separating an
insoluble
solid from a liquid using a
filter paper.
Chromatography
The processes of
separating components
of mixtures makes use of differences in
solvent affinity.
Electrolysis
Chemical
process that can
breakdown
a compound into its
component
elements.

Intrinsic
Extensive Property of Matter is also known as...
Extrinsic
This property is independent on the amount.
Intensive/Intrinsic
This property is dependent on the amount.
Extensive/Extrinsic

and
volume
are examples of...
