Chemistry – Matter Unit
• What is matter?• What is
chemistry?• What is the
organization of matter?
• What is the nature of matter?
What is chemistry?
• “Chemistry is the study of the composition, structure, and the properties of matter and the changes it undergoes.”
• All chemical reactions involve energy.
What is a pure substance?
• A pure substance has a definite composition (proportion).
• The composition of a substance will have the same percent of elements no matter where the sample was obtained. – Water from Lake Okechobee and water from
the Atlantic Ocean (once cleaned up) will have the same composition of hydrogen to oxygen.
– Gold is the same as other gold (once cleaned up).
What is a pure substance?
• A pure substance, by definition, is an element or a compound.
• A container with an almost pure compound:
What is an element?
• “a pure substance made of only one kind of atom”
• A substance that cannot be decomposed any farther by simple chemical means
• An element has a definite composition. Gold from South Africa is the same, when purified, as a sample from California.
Periodic Table of Elements
• Most elements on the periodic chart are metals.• Elements through 114 but not 113 have been discovered
or made.
What is a compound?
• “A compound is a substance that is made from the atoms of two or more elements that are chemically bonded.”
• The definition is actually more involved than this.
What is a compound?
• A compound is a substance that cannot be decomposed any farther by simple physical means.
• A compound has a definite composition by mass.
• A compound is made up of two or more elements chemically combined.
What is a compound?
• A compound no longer has the properties of its constituent elements.
• Table salt, NaCl or sodium chloride, is a compound of the element sodium and the element chlorine.
Sodium chloride, NaCl
• Sodium chloride dissolves in water rather than reacts with water.
• Sodium chloride is a white solid, not a poisonous green gas.
• Sodium chloride is its own substance with its own properties, not those of either sodium or chlorine.
Colored Compounds
• Cobalt(II) chloride, Iron(II) sulfate, Potassium dichromate, Potassium chromate, Nickel(II)
nitrate, copper(II) sulfate
Impure Matter - Mixture
• “A mixture is a blend of two or more kinds of matter, each of which retains its own identity and properties.”
• A mixture is made up of two or more substances that are not chemically combined.
Mixtures• Mixtures can be separated by simple
physical means.• Two mixtures containing the same
substances may not have the same proportions.
• Example: Very salty water versus barely salty water. Very sweet sugar water versus slightly sweet sugar water.
Solutions
• Mixtures– Mixture = a blend of two or more kinds of
matter, each of which retains its own identity and properties
a) homogeneous mixture = a mixture that is uniform in composition throughout
Ex: Food coloring and water
b) heterogeneous mixture = a mixture that is NOT uniform in composition throughout
Ex: Oil and water
Types of Mixtures:1) solution = a homogeneous mixture
2) suspension = a mixture in which the particles are so large that they settle out unless the mixture is constantly stirred or agitated
Heterogeneous mixture
Ex: Sand and water
3) colloid = a mixture consisting of particles that are intermediate in size between those in solutions and those in suspensions
Heterogeneous mixture
Ex: Milk
THE NATURE OF SOLUTIONS: 1) Solvent = the substance that does the dissolving in a solution
a) Typically present in the greatest amount
b) Typically a liquid
c) Water is the most common or “universal” solvent
2) Solute = substance being dissolved in a solution
a) Typically present in the least amount
b) Typically a solid
Factors Affecting the Rate of Dissolving (Increase Solution Rate):
• 1) Grinding: increases surface area
• 2) Stirring: allows solvent continual contact with solute
• 3) Heating: increases kinetic energy; increases mixing
SOLUBILITY:1) Solubility = quantity of solute that will dissolve in specific amount of solvent at a certain temperature.
(pressure must also be specified for gases).
a)Ex: 204 g of sugar will dissolve in 100 g of water at 20°C
b)soluble and insoluble are relative terms
c)solubility should NOT be confused with the rate at which a substance dissolves
2) saturated solution = a stable solution in which the maximum amount of solute has been dissolved.
3) solution equilibrium = state where the solute is dissolving at the same rate that the solute is coming out of solution (crystallizing).
a) Opposing processes of the dissolving and crystallizing of a solute occur at equal rates.
b) solute + solvent solution
4) unsaturated solution = a solution that contains less solute than a saturated solution under existing conditions
5) supersaturated solution = a solution that temporarily contains more than the saturation amount of solute than the solvent can hold (unstable)
3 FACTORS EFFECTING SOLUBILITY:The extent to which a given solute dissolves in a solvent depends on the identity of the solute and solvent and also on the existing conditions of pressure & temperature
1) Nature of solute and solvent
a)“Like dissolves like” = rule of thumb for predicting whether or not one substance dissolves in another
• “Alikeness” depends on:
o Intermolecular forces
o Type of bonding
o Polarity or nonpolarity of molecules:
ionic solutes tend to dissolve in polar
solvents but not in nonpolar solvents
2) Pressure:
a)Pressure has little effect on the solubility of liquids or solids in liquid solvents.
b)The solubility of a gas in a liquid solvent
INCREASES when pressure increases. It is a direct relationship.
3) Temperature:
a)The solubility of a gas in a liquid solvent DECREASES with an increase in temperature.
b)The solubility of a solid in a liquid solvent MOST OFTEN increases with an increase in temperature. However, solubility changes vary widely with temperature changes sometimes decreasing with temperature increases.
Mixtures vs Compounds
• Minerals are pure substances although many have impuities that must be cleaned up first.
What is the nature of matter?
• An atom is the smallest unit of an element that maintains the properties of that element– An atom is made up of electrons,

• Hydrogen has three isotopes:– Hydrogen with 1 proton and 0 neutrons
– Deuterium with 1 proton and 1 neutron
– Tritium with 1 proton and 2 neutrons
Chemistry Vocabulary• The different masses of these
isotopes give them different properties such as melting and boiling points and reactivities and stabilities.
• Regular uranium is not radioactive enough for a nuclear fuel. Only certain isotopes of uranium will work.
