Unit 2: Matter What is stuff?
What is Matter? Which of the following is matter? • Rain • Snow • Air • Electricity • Breath • Thunder • Lightning • Light • Energy
Let’s Define Matter… • Write down a definition of what you think constitutes matter. Be specific! • Our definition: Matter is anything that has a VOLUME and a MASS.
The Nature of Matter: • Kinetic Theory of Matter: Matter is made up of tiny particles in constant motion. • Elements are made of 1 type of atom • Atoms made of: • Protons • Neutrons • Electrons • Matter cannot be created or destroyed in/by a natural process. • 1st Law of Thermodynamics
Elements, Compounds, and Mixtures: • Elements: Pure substance that cannot be broken down into smaller parts; consists of only 1 type of Atom • Compounds:A chemicalcombination of 2 or more elements. • Mixture: Aphysical combination of 2 or more compounds or elements. • SO…which of these do each of the pictures represent?
Mixture Types: • Heterogeneous mixtures contain regions that have properties that are different from other regions. • They are NOT the same throughout. • Homogeneous mixtures are the same throughout. • They are called solutions. • Solute vs. Solvent
Intro to the States of Matter • There are 4 states of matter • Solids • Liquids • Gasses • Plasma • These are PHYSICAL properties of matter.
Phases of Matter • What temperature does water boil at? • What Temperature does water boil at when at a pressure of 218 atm?

Physical and Chemical Properties Continued… Chemical properties refer to a substances ability to form new substances. Results in a chemical change Called reactions Gas Released Heat Released Change in pH Unexpected Color Change Formation of a Precipitate Physical properties refer to characteristics that do not result in the formation of a new substance Results in a physical change Can be used to identify substances
Kinetic Molecular Theory: Characteristics of the States of Matter: • Solid: • particles are touching • particles are arranged in a stacking pattern • strong attractive forces between particles • cannot be compressed • Liquid: • - particles are touching • particles are able to move past eachother • mild attractive forces between particles • cannot be compressed • Gas: • particles not touching • particles are free flowing • NO attractive forces between particles • can be compressed
Take a look… So… why do we see the characteristics that we see???
Separating Mixtures: • Distillation: A liquid solution is boiled to produce a vapor which is then condensed to re-produce a separated liquid • Filtration: used to separate a heterogeneous mixture containing a solid and a liquid • Combination: well….duh!
