What’s the MATTER Classify Matter

Matter, Classify Matter

At the conclusion of our time together, you should be able to:

1. Classify a mixture of matter based on their physical and chemical properties

2. Characterize various types of matter

Bill Gates' RulesHere is a list of 11 things that many high school and college graduates did not learn in school. In

his book, Bill Gates talks about how feel-good, politically-correct teachings created a full

generation of kids with no concept of reality and how this concept has set them up for failure in the

real world.

RULE 9

Life is not divided into semesters. You don't get summers off and very few employers are interested in helping you find yourself. Do that on your own

time.

Types of Matter

Pure Substance- Matter with a fixed composition It has distinct properties Examples = elements

compounds

Types of Matter

Mixtures- Most matter is a mixture The composition is not fixed (changes

from sample to sample) Two Types –

HomogeneousHeterogeneous

Homogeneous Mixtures

Composition is uniform throughout Solution-

Particle size = 0.01 – 1 nm Doesn’t settle out upon standing Can’t be separated by filtering Doesn’t scatter light Example = salt water

Colloid- Particle size = 1 – 1000 nm Doesn’t settle out upon standing Can’t be separated by filtering Scatters light (Tyndall Effect) Examples = milk, gelatin, smoke

Homogeneous Mixtures

Heterogeneous Mixtures - Suspension

The sample varies in composition, properties and appearance

No uniformity If a suspension: Particle size is greater than 1000 nm Particles settle out upon standing Can be separated by filtration Might scatter light Examples = soil, trail mix, pond water

Don’t Let This Stuff Bite You!!!!

Let’s Look at Some Examples:

Mixtures are variable combinations of 2 or more pure substances.

Heterogeneous –visibly separate phases

Homogeneous – Same throughout

Pure substance vs. MixtureOnly ONE element has 2 or more or compound. elements/ (distilled water) compounds.

Things my Mother taught me…

LOGIC.

     "Because I said so, that's why."

Air is a mixture of several gases.

Name Formula amount

Nitrogen N2 78 %

Oxygen O2 21 %

Argon Ar 1 %

Carbon CO2 0.03 %

Dioxide

Air is a mixture of several gases

Name Formula Amount

Neon Ne 0.002 %

Methane CH4 0.0002 %

Helium He 0.000524 %

Krypton Kr 0.000114 %

Hydrogen H2 0.00005 %

Xenon Xe 0.0000087 %

Atoms are NOT the same as molecules. Air and oxygen are NOT the same. Helium and hot air are NOT the same.
