anything that has mass, occupies space, and has inertia
Extensive properties
qualities that are or depend upon the amount of the material. these do not help identify a material.
Intensive properties
qualities that
do not depend on the amount of material
help identify a material it must have BOTH criteria to be an intensive property
Physical properties
qualities that can be observed only where physical changes are allowed
Chemical properties
qualities that describe chemical changes or interactions between different forms of matter. these require a chemical change to observe or measure.
Chemical change
any change in which experimental evidence indicates that original substances (reactants) have been consumed and new substances (products) have been produced. a chemical change involves a re-organization of atoms, or molecules, by the breaking and reforming of chemical bonds.
Experimental evidence
Particle relationships
New properties emerge at and describe each level of organization
Kinetic energy
a measure of the energy of particles; any energy that cannot be stored; motion
Potential energy
stored energy
Thermal energy
kinetic energy of a material's particles
Temperature
measure of the AVERAGE kinetic energy in a sample of a material (this is because of random particle collisions)
States of matter
solid
liquid
gas
plasma (charged gas)
Solid
fixed shape
fixed volume
particles can only vibrate in place
can't change places
least KE and PE of the states of matter
has the strongest attractive forces (stuck together strongly)
Liquid
shape adopts its container
particles touching each other (no space between particles)
particles can move
increase in PE and KE since the solid state
Gas
huge increase in PE and KE
space between particles (this is why gases can be compressed)
shape and volume adapts to its container
Kinetic Molecular Theory
KMT explains what happens to matter when the KE of particles changes.
all matter is made up of tiny particles
there is empty space between these particles
these particles are always in motion, but their freedom to move depends on their state of matter
these particles move because of energy. the amount of energy they have determines how fast and far they move.
Melting point
the point at which a solid changes into a liquid (intensive property)
Freezing point
the point at which a liquid changes into a solid (intensive property)
Boiling point
the point when vapor pressure is the same as the atmospheric pressure outside of the boiling liquid (intensive property)
Vapor pressure
the pressure of vapor inside a bubble during boiling (intensive property)
Volatility
how readily a liquid turns into a gas (intensive property)
Heat of Fusion
endothermic event
melting
potential energy
attractive forces overcome
indicated in energy per amount (J/mol)
intensive physical property
Heat of Vaporization
much more than heat of fusion
massive increase in PE
intensive physical property
Heating curve
if temp is going up, KE increase (no attractive forces overcome yet)
when changing states, PE increases (attractive forces overcome) particles gain KE and vibrate. when they have enough energy, they change states and overcome attractive forces
Heating curve of a pure substance
Heating curve of an impure substance (mixture)
constantly increasing KE helps identify purity of a substance
Reactivity
whether a substance reacts; or to a substance's reaction rate

Binary vs Non-binary compounds
Binary: only TWO different elements Non-binary: compounds with more than two elements
Ionic vs Covalent compounds
Ionic: In ionic compounds, no neutral, independent molecules exist. The formulas that we write for ionic compounds simply represent the smallest whole-number ratios (integral ratio) of cations to anions that are electrically neutral.
all are solid at room temp
cations and anions held together in 3D crystal lattices by ionic bonds
formula is a ratio, not a molecule
3D ionic bonds make them very stable
compounds with alkali metals or polyatomic ions are always IONIC OR Covalent:
formulas represent numbers of atoms that exist in the molecule (it is a ratio)
most are molecular compounds (made stable by sharing electrons (covalent bonds)
Acids vs Bases vs Salts
Acid: a compound that either starts with H or ends with COOH Base: contains a hydroxide (OH) Salt: Any other ionic compound

solute(s) [minor component] dissolved in a solvent [major component]
PHYSICALLY COMBINED (properties of all components remain and combine)
can be in any state OR Colloids:
dispersed phase dissolved in a medium
translucent and cloudy
particles are about the same size or big enough to reflect visible light
display Tyndall effect (shine bright light and it goes through the mixture)
particles do not settle when standing (can be separated in a centrifuge)
Heterogenous mixtures can be further classified as?
Suspensions: -particles settle upon standing (sediments)

What does physical separations of a mixture allow for?
It allows for the constituent substances to be identified. The substances can then be used for their individual properties, values, or recombined into other useful mixtures.
What is the trick to separating substances in a mixture?
Pick a property that clearly differentiates the substances.
What are the 7 separation methods?
Solvent extraction
Recrystallization
Filter separation/decanting
Evaporation to dryness
Centrifugation
Chromatography
Simple distillation
What is solvent extraction?
The separation of a particular substance from a mixture by dissolving that substance in a solvent that will dissolve it, but which will not dissolve any other substance in the mixture. The most dense substances will end up on the bottom and the least dense will end up on the top. The substance on the bottom is then separated by a funnel.
What does solvent extraction take advantage of?
takes advantage of DIFFERENCES IN SOLUBILITY
used for separating liquid in liquid mixtures
What is recrystallization?
Recrystallization involves dissolving the impure compound (the solute) in an appropriate solvent. The solvent is then heated to allow the solute to better dissolve in the solvent. As the solvent cools, the solution becomes saturated with the solute and the sample with the highest concentration crystallizes out (reforms a solid). The slower it recrystallizes, the more pure the compound was. It should not evaporate to dryness.
What does recrystallization take advantage of?
TAKES ADVANTAGE OF DIFFERENCES IN CONCENTRATION
used for a large concentration of one solid mixed with a small concentration of another solid
What is filtration?
A separation technique used to separate the components of a mixture containing an undissolved solid in a liquid. The liquid containing the sediment is poured into a folded piece of filter paper in a funnel. The substance stuck in the filter is the residue. The substance the funnelled out of the filter is the filtrate.
What does filtration take advantage of?
TAKES ADVANTAGE OF DIFFERENT SIZES OF PARTICLES
What is decanting?
The process of separating a liquid from a solid and other immiscible (non-mixing) liquids, by removing the liquid layer at the top from the layer of solid or liquid below. The process can be carried out by tilting the mixture and pouring out the top layer, while taking care so the bottom layers do not pour out as well. There will be a little bit of the top liquid left in, but you can heat up the solids to dry off the liquid and keep a more precise amount of the solids.
What does decanting take advantage of?
TAKES ADVANTAGE OF DIFFERENT SIZES OF PARTICLES
What is evaporation to dryness?
A process where a mixture of a solid dissolved in a liquid is left to evaporate to dryness. The solid will then be left behind as a residue. It is done by evaporating the solvent off, measuring the mass, and then measuring the concentration of the solution. This is used when we do not care about recovering the solvent.
What does evaporation to dryness take advantage of?
TAKES ADVANTAGE OF BOILING POINTS
What is centrifugation?
A method of separating suspended particles in a colloid or suspension and causing them to sink or rise depending on their density by spinning them at a high speed. Particles in a centrifuge continue to travel in a straight line while the centrifuge tube turns. The densest particles with the greatest inertia are selectively directed to the bottom of the tube.
What does centrifugation take advantage of?
TAKES ADVANTAGE OF DIFFERENT DENSITIES
What is the density of water?
1.0 g/mL
What is chromatography?
A technique for separating mixtures into their constituent parts. At its core, chromatography separates substances in a solution by having a mobile phase (which carries the mixture being separated) carry them at different rates through a stationary phase (which the solutes adhere to). Each substance travels through the stationary phase at its own characteristic rate according to how well it dissolves in the mobile phase and how well it adheres to the stationary phase. Cannot use this on clear substances.
What does chromatography take advantage of?
TAKES ADVANTAGE OF SOLUBILITY IN THE MOBILE PHASE AND ADHESION TO THE STATIONARY PHASE
What is capillary action?
The tendency of a liquid to rise in narrow tubes or to be drawn to small openings. It causes the solvent to rise up through the stationary medium in chromatography.
Formula for ratio of fronts
solute front/solvent front
What does the ratio of fronts help us do?
Identify or support the identification of a substance by more definitive means.
Formula for separation distance
spn. distance = d2 (Rfa - Rfb)
What is simple distillation?
A method of separating dissolved solids from a liquid solvent based on differences in their volatilities in a boiling liquid mixture. The components in a sample mixture are vaporized by the application of heat and then immediately cooled and collected by the action of cold water in a condenser. This is used when we care about recovering the solvent.
What does simple distillation take advantage of?
TAKES ADVANTAGE OF BOILING POINTS/VOLATILITIES
What happens when there are mobile ions dissolved in a solvent?
Mobile ions are a conductive system, so the mixture should conduct electricity.
What do formulas of ionic compounds represent?
