Lesson 2 Flashcards
It is the study of matter and the
changes it undergoes.
Chemistry
is anything
that occupies space and has mass.
Matter
4 classifications of matter
substances,
mixtures, elements, and compounds.
classification of matter that Has definite composition and distinct properties
substance
Combination of two or more substances. It can be created and
then separated by physical means into its pure component
without changing the identities of the components.
mixture
the composition is uniform throughout the
mixture
homogeneous
the composition is not uniform
throughout the mixture
heterogeneous
Cannot be separated into simpler substances by chemical
means
Elements
Composed of atoms of two or more elements chemically united
into their pure composition. They can be separated only by
chemical means into their pure components.
compounds
molecules are held close
together in an orderly fashion with little freedom of
motion.
solid
close together but are
not held so rigidly in position and can move past one
another.
liquid
the molecules are separated by
distances that are large compared with the size of the
molecules.
gas
Can be measured and observed without changing
the composition or identity of a substance
Physical Property
does not depend on the
amount of substance present
Intrinsic/Intensive
color, odor, taste, density, boiling point,
melting point
Intrinsic/Intensive
depends on the amount
of substance present
mass, volume, length
extrinsic/extensive
