Pure Substances
 A pure substance is matter that always
has exactly the same composition.
 Every sample of a substance has the same
properties.
 An element is a substance that contains
only ONE TYPE OF ATOM.
 A compound contains only ONE TYPE OF
MOLECULE (molecules are atoms that are
chemically combined in a fixed
proportion).
Examples of Substances
 Examples of ELEMENTS are:
carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, & gold
 The short way to write down an element’s
name is called a chemical symbol.
 (C, N, O, & Au)
 Examples of COMPOUNDS are:
water, carbon dioxide, salt, & sugar
 The short way to show the number of
elements in a compound is called a chemical
formula.
 (H2O, CO2, NaCl, C12H22O11)

Mixtures
 Mixtures contain more than one substance (not
chemically combined).
 Mixtures retain some of the properties of their
individual substances, but can vary because the
composition of a mixture is not fixed.
 In a heterogeneous mixture, the parts are
noticeably different.
 In a homogenous mixture (or solution), the
parts are so thoroughly mixed that it is hard to
see the separate substances. It appears to be
one substance
Compound or Mixture?
 A compound is made up of
more than one element
chemically combined.
 A mixture contains more than
one substance physically mixed
together.

Properties of Matter
NOTES

Properties of Matter
 Properties are the characteristics,
traits, or behaviors that we can
use to identify samples of matter
and distinguish them from one
another.
 Water, for example, has different
properties than aluminum.
Two TYPES of Properties
 Physical properties can be
changed without changing the
composition of the material
itself.
 Chemical properties, if
changed, would result in the
formation of a new substance.
Physical Properties & Changes
 A physical change is any change in
a material that does not change
the material into a new substance.
 Examples:
Folding paper, Ripping paper,
Adding salt to water, Breaking
an egg
Physical Properties
 Physical properties are any
characteristics that could
change without forming a new
substance.
 Size, shape, color, taste, odor,
magnetism, and temperature
are all physical properties.
Chemical Properties & Changes
 A chemical change is any change
in a material that changes the
material into a new substance.
 Examples:
Burning paper, Cooking an egg,
Fireworks exploding, Iron
rusting
Chemical Properties
 Chemical properties are
characteristics that can be
observed when a material changes
into a new substance.
 Chemical changes are often
accompanied by the release or
absorption of energy in the form
of heat, light, or sound.
Physical or Chemical Change?
 A physical change DOES
NOT form a new substance.
 A chemical change DOES
form at least one new
substance.

Notes
 P. 6 Density
Physical Property: Density
 Density is a ratio of an object’s
mass to its volume.
 Density = Mass
D=m
Volume
V
 Density is basically a measure of
how crowded a material’s atoms
are.
Density is very useful!!
 Every pure substance has its
own unique, exact density.
 This density can be used to
determine its identity or its
purity.
 For example, all samples of pure
gold have densities of 19.3 g/mL.
Calculating Density
1.) Mass = 400 g
Volume = 40 mL
Density = Mass / Volume
Density = 400g / 40mL
Density = 10 g/mL
Density
2.) Mass = 400 g
Volume = 20 mL
D = m/V
D = 400 g / 20 mL
D = 20 g/mL
Density
3.) Mass = 800 g
Volume = 20 mL
D = m/V
D = 800 g / 20 mL
D = 40 g/mL
Calculating Mass
4.) Mass = V x D
Volume = 40 mL
Density = 5 g/mL
m = 40mL x 5 g/mL
m = 200 g
Calculating Volume
5.) Volume = m / D
Mass = 100 g
Density = 5 g/mL
V = 100g / (5 g/mL)
V = 20 mL

Identification by Density
 A substance has a mass of 105
grams and a volume of 50
milliliters. What is this
substance?
 D = m/V = 105 g / 50mL
 D = 2.1 g/mL  SULFUR
Identification by Density
 A substance has a mass of 315
grams and a volume of 30
milliliters. What is this
substance?
 D = m/V = 315 g / 30mL
 D = 10.5 g/mL  SILVER
Identification by Density
 A substance has a mass of 500
grams and a volume of 500
milliliters. What is this
substance?
 D = m/V = 500 g / 500 mL
 D = 1.0 g/mL  WATER
Calculating Volume
 A sample of sulfur has a mass
of 1260 grams. Calculate its
volume.
 V = m/D = 1260 g / 2.1 g/mL
V = 600 mL
Calculating Mass
 A sample of titanium has a
volume of 500mL. What is its
mass?
 m = V x D = 500mL x 4.4 g/mL
m = 2200 grams
