Importance of Chemistry Physical States of Matter


to Daily Life (p. 3-7) (p. 11 – 14)

Role of Chemistry in Society Gas vs Vapor

• Chemistry has helped human • Gas - Gaseous in its natural state /


civilization room temperature (Ex: Oxygen)
o Crop-enhancing chemicals • Vapor – Gaseous state of a
o Water-treatment processes substance, but solid / liquid at
o Life-saving pharmaceuticals room temperature (Ex: Water
o Synthetic plastics & fibers vapor)

Tasks of a Chemist

• Laboratory work, analyses, & Solid – definite shape, definite volume


experiments

Chem reviewer (1st quarter)
Processes of Matter (c. dane) • 2 types:
o Heterogenous – particles are not
evenly distributed (Ex: Halo-halo)
o Homogeneous – particles are
evenly distributed (Ex: Air)

Separating Mixtures

• Filtration – insoluble solid & liquid


Properties of Matter • Evaporation – soluble solid & liquid
• Chromatography – dissolved
Physical Properties substances w/ different colors
• Can be observed & measured • Simple distillation – volatile liquid &
without changing identity of non-volatile liquid
substance Elements & Compounds
• Ex: Color, Boiling point, Melting
point Elements

• Simplest form of matter (Ex:


Oxygen, Helium)
Chemical Properties
Compounds
• Ability of a substance to undergo
change to a different substance • Contains two or more elements (Ex:
• When a substance undergoes H2O, CO2)
changes in its compositions, it is
called chemical change /
chemical reaction
Accuracy & Precision
Intensive Properties
Accuracy
• Does not depend on amount of
matter • How close an average value is to
o Ex: Density, melting point, true value
conductibility Precision
Extensive Properties • How close measurements are to
• Depends on amount of matter one another
o Ex: Mass, volume

Classifications of Matter
Mixture

• Physical blend of 2 or more


components

2. Atoms of an element are identical,
having the same properties such as
size, mass, and etc. Atoms of
different elements are different.
