Mater And Particles Flashcards
Matter
Anything thing that space and has mass
Mass
Is the amount of matter in an object
3 states of matter
Solid
Liquid
Solid
Gas
Property’s of solids
Definite shape
Definite volume
Cannot be compressed
Cannot flow
Gases
Have no definite shape
Have no definite volume
Can be compressed
Can flow
Heat Energy
In order for a substance to change state it needs heat energy
Latent heat
As a substance changes state it uses latent heat there is no change in temperature but the state of material changes
The melting point
Is when both the solid state and liquid state exist together
The boiling point
Is when is when evaporation happens throughout the liquid
Condensation
Is the changing of gas to liquid
Diffusion
Is the movement of particles from a high concentration to an area of low concentration eg spray perfume in one corner of the room and then in a while it will travel into the other
Four state of matter plasma is the fourth state of matter like gas but can conduct electricity
Mixture
A mixture contains two substances mingled together but not chemically combined
There are four methods of separating mixtures
Filtration
Evaporation
Distillation
Chromatography
Filtration
Used to separate small insoluble objects do not dissolve in a liquid
From liquid by using filtered paper and a funnel to separate
Evaporation
Is used to separate soluble solids dissolve in liquids from a solution from evaporation
Of the liquids to leave the solids eg salt water.
Physical change
No change in particles just change in the particle arrangement and energy example salt
Chemical change
A chemical reaction takes place and a new substance is formed
During the chemical reaction
The atoms rearrange to form a new substance might be seen i. Temperature or colour
Law of conversation of mass
Matter van be changed from one to another
Distillation
Used to separate two liquids with different boiling points such as alcohol boils at 78 degrees
And water boils at 100 degrees and also used to separate soluble liquids
Chromatography
Used to separate a mixture of dissolved substances in a solution eg the different colours in a black marker
