WHMIS • Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System • Why is it important?
WHMIS Symbols CLASS A: COMPRESSED GAS This class includes compressed gases, dissolved gases, and gases liquefied by compression or refrigeration. CLASS B: FLAMMABLE AND COMBUSTIBLE MATERIAL This class includes solids, liquids, and gases capable of catching fire in the presence of a spark or open flame under normal working conditions. CLASS C: OXIDIZING MATERIAL These materials increase the risk of fire if they come in contact with flammable or combustible materials.
WHMIS Symbols CLASS D: POISONOUS AND INFECTIOUS MATERIALDivision 1: Materials Causing Immediate and Serious Toxic Effects These materials can cause death or immediate injury when a person is exposed to small amounts. Examples: sodium cyanide, hydrogen sulphide CLASS D: POISONOUS AND INFECTIOUS MATERIALDivision 2: Materials Causing Other Toxic EFFECTS These materials can cause life-threatening and serious long-term health problems as well as less severe but immediate reactions in a person who is repeatedly exposed to small amounts. CLASS D: POISONOUS AND INFECTIOUS MATERIALDivision 3: Biohazardous Infectious MATERIAL These materials contain an organism that has been shown to cause disease or to be a probable cause of disease in persons or animals.
WHMIS Symbols CLASS E: CORROSIVE MATERIAL This class includes caustic and acid materials that can destroy the skin or eat through metals. Examples: sodium hydroxide, hydrochloric acid, nitric acid CLASS F: DANGEROUSLY REACTIVE MATERIAL These products may self-react dangerously (for example, they may explode) upon standing or when exposed to physical shock or to increased pressure or temperature, or they emit toxic gases when exposed to water.
What is Chemistry and Matter? Chemistry is the study of matter, its properties and its changes or transformations. Matter is anything that has mass and takes up space.
Mixtures • A mixture is a substance made by combining two or more different materials in such a way that no chemical reaction occurs. • Mixtures can be separated by physical means. • Ex. Party Mix, boiling Kool Aid
Homogenous Mixture (Solution) • Mixture where the two different substances that are combined together are mixed very well. • Any portion of the sample has the same properties and composition. • Example: Salt Water Milk
Heterogeneous Mixture • Mixture where the different parts or each substance can be separated physically. • Different parts are visible. • Example: Toppings on a Pizza Chocolate chip cookie Salad
Pure Substances • How do we know that a sample of matter is a pure substance? • A pure substance is made up of all the same particles. • A pure substance also has constant properties. Example: pure water, aluminum foil. • Pure substances can be either elements or compounds.
Compounds • Compounds are pure substances that contain two or more different elements in a fixed proportion. • Example: Water H2O = 2 parts hydrogen to 1 part oxygen. SaltNaCl = 1 sodium to 1 clorine
Elements • Elements are pure substances that cannot be broken down into simpler substances. • Elements contain only one kind of atom. • Example: Oxygen, hydrogen, iron, etc. ( anything on the periodic table )
Review • Homogeneous Mixture • Heterogeneous Mixture • Element • Compound • Pure Substance • Mixture
Classify the following as:a) pure or mixtureb)element, compound, heterogeneous or homogeneous mixture • Salt • Sugar • Wood • Rock • Water • Milk • Plastic • Glass • Mercury • Apple Juice • Syrup • Gold • Air • Oxygen • Silver • Cookies • Cake • Sand
States of Matter • http://www.harcourtschool.com/activity/states_of_matter/ There are 3 states of matter: Solid, Liquid and Gas.
Properties of Matter: Physical and Chemical • A Physical Property is a characteristic of a substance. Usually these are properties that we can detect with our senses. • Changing the size or amount of the substance does not change the physical properties.
Physical Properties • Color – red, green, white, etc. • Texture – smooth, fine, coarse. • Taste – sour, sweet, salty. • Odour – what smell does the substance have? • States of matter at room temperature: - solid, liquid, gas.
Physical Properties • Malleable is the ability of a solid to be hammered or bent into different shapes. Aluminum foil is malleable. Gold is malleable since it can be hammered into thin sheets. • Hardness – the measure of the resistance of a solid to being scratched or dented
Physical Properties • Ductility – The ability to stretch a substance into a wire. • Luster – How shiny is the substance?
Physical Properties • Boiling Point – the temperature at which a liquid changes state and becomes a gas. • Melting Point – the temperature at which a solid changes state and becomes liquid.
List the Physical Properties Baking soda is: • solid at room temperature • white in color • crystal form • dissolves easily in water.
Chemical Properties • A chemical property is a behaviour that occurs when a substance changes to a new substance. • For example: Is the substance combustible? Does the substance have a reaction with acid? Does the substance react with water?
Physical Changes • In a physical change, the substance involved remains the same substance, even though it may change state or form. • Can be undone quite easily. Key: No new substance is created. • Examples: melting ice, freezing water, dissolving salt into water, breaking a stick.
Chemical Changes • In a chemical change, the original substance is changed into one or more different substances that have different properties. • Not easily undone – almost impossible Key: New substance almost always formed. • Examples: burning wood, baking a cake, digesting food
Clues that a chemical change has occurred • A new color appears. • Heat or light is given off. • Bubbles of gas are formed. • The change is difficult to reverse.
Physical Changes • Here are some examples of physical changes:

Electrons • Negatively charged ( - ) • Almost have no mass • Located around the outside of the nucleus
Proton • Same mass as neutrons • Positively charged (+) • Located in center of atom (nucleus) • Number of protons in an atom is equal to the elements atomic number.
Neutron • Same mass as proton • No charge • Located in nucleus • Number per atom is based on the following formula: • #Neutrons = Atomic Mass – Atomic Number
