is the study of matter and
the changes that matter undergoes
Chemistry
Properties of matter according to change involved during measurement of the property
Physical and Chemical
According to dependence on the amount of matter
Intensive and Extensive
Some properties can be readily measured with our
senses
Physical Properties
Describe the reactivity of a substance
toward other substances.
Chemical Properties
Independent of the amount of the substance
that is present.
Intensive Properties
Dependent upon the amount of the substance
present.
Extensive Properties
Boiling point
intensive
Weight
extensive
Volume
extensive
Density
intensive
Anything that has mass and occupies space
Matter
The smallest stable building block of matter. Made up of protons, neutrons & electrons.
Atom
Groups of atoms held together with a specific
connectivity and shape
Molecule
Matter that has a fixed composition and distinct
properties
Pure Substance
All atoms are the same kind
Elements
Contains more than one type of atom, but all molecules
(or repeat units) are the same
Compounds
Have variable compositions and can be separated into
parts by physical methods.
Mixture
Composition and
properties are non-uniform
Heterogeneous Mixture
Composition and
properties are uniform. Sometimes called a
solution.
Homogeneous Mixture
is obtained by dividing the
mass by the volume
Density
is the temperature at which a
substance changes from solid to liquid
melting point
is the temperature at which a substance changes
from liquid to gas.
boiling
point
It is the force of attraction between a magnet and
a magnetic object
