GenChem Perio Flashcards
Matter can be distinguished through two components, which are?
Composition & Properties
It refers to the different components of matter along with their relative proportions
Composition
It refers to the qualities/attributes that distinguish one sample of matter from another
Properties
Classifications of properties of matter
Physical & Chemical
Two sub-categories of physical properties of matter
Intensive & Extensive
Property of matter that is determined by its change of state but not the identity of the substance
Physical
Physical property of matter that depends on the amount of the substance
Extensive
Physical property of matter that does not depend on the amount off the substance
Intensive
Examples of Extensive Physical Property of Matter
Mass
Volume
Length
Shape
Examples of Intensive Physical Property of Matter
Color
Melting Point
Boiling Point
Density
P=MASS/VOLUME
Density
Pigment or shade
Color
Allows electricity to flow through the substance
Conductivity
Determines if a substance can be flattened
Malleability
It determines how shiny a substance looks
Luster
The ability of the substance to be stretched
Ductility
Determines how much matter is in the sample
Mass
Determines how much space the sample takes up
Volume
Determines how long the sample is
Length
It is the potential to undergo through a reaction by virtue of its composition
Chemical
Classification of matter in terms of its chemical composition
Pure substance
Mixture
A kind of matter that cannot be separated into other kinds of matter
Pure substance
It is a physical combination of two or more substances where the substance still retains its own chemical idenitity
Mixture
When a solid substance does not dissolve in a liquid solvent, it is?
Insoluble
When a liquid substance does not dissolve in a liquid solvent, it is?
Immiscible
It is a method for separating an insoluble solid from a liquid
Filtration
It is the component that stays behind the filter paper
Residue
It is the component that passes through the filter paper
Filtrate
