Chapter 1
Property : a characteriste that belongs to a person or thing
Matter: anything that has moss et takes up space
Chemesty: the study of matter and how it changes.
Substance! a single kind Of matter that is pure.
Physical property: a characteristic of a substance that can be observed without changing it into another substance.
Chemical property: as characteristic of a stillstance that describes its ability to change into anther substance.
Element: a substance that eannot be broken dewn into amy other Substance.
-all matter is made of atoms
Atom: the basic particle from which all elements are made
Chemical bond: atoms combine with other atoms
Molecule : a group of 2 or more atoms held together by chemical bond
Compound: a substance made of 2 or more elements that are chemicaily combined in a set ratio.
- they are represented by a chemical formula
When elements combine, the copound that forms nas different properties than the original elements.
-Elements and compounds are substances
Mixtures: made est of 2 or more substances that are all together in the same place but the atoms are not chemically bonded.
- each substance Keeps its own properties
Types of mixtures:
Heterogeneous: you can usually see the eifferent parts and can be easily separated.
Homogeneus: The substances are evenly mixed, you can I see the different parts and it's difficult to separate.
HOW to separate a mixture: distilation, filtration,evaporation,magentic atraction.
Physical change: alters the form of appearance of matter but does not turn any substance into a different one.
Chemical chanange: produces ones, or more new substances and have different properties.
Law kf conservation of Mass: Matter can not be created or destroyed in a chemial or physical change, it can only be changed.
Energy; the ability to do work or make a change
Endothermic change:energyis absorbed
Exothermic change: energy is redlesed
