Properties of Matter
• Physical Properties are the characteristics of
matter that do not affect the composition of the
substance
– Characteristics that are directly observable
• Chemical Properties are the characteristics that
determine how the composition of matter changes
as a result of contact with other matter or the
influence of energy
• Characteristics that describe the behavior of matter

Changes in Matter
• Physical Changes are changes to matter that do
not result in a change the fundamental components
that make that substance
– State Changes – boiling, melting, condensing
• Chemical Changes involve a change in the
fundamental components of the substance
– Produce a new substance
– Chemical reaction
– Reactants  Products

Elements and Compounds
• Substances which can not be broken down into
simpler substances by chemical reactions are
called elements
• Most substances are chemical combinations of
elements. These are called compounds.
– Compounds are made of elements
– Compounds can be broken down into elements
– Properties of the compound are not related to the
properties of the elements that compose it
– Same chemical composition at all times

14
Classification of Matter
Matter
Pure Substance
Constant Composition
Homogeneous
Mixture
Variable Composition
• Homogeneous = uniform throughout, appears to be one
thing
– pure substances
– solutions (homogeneous mixtures)
• Heterogeneous = non-uniform, contains regions with
different properties than other regions

15
Pure Substances vs. Mixtures
• Pure Substances
– All samples have the same physical and chemical properties elements or compounds
– Constant Composition  all samples have the same composition
– Homogeneous
– Separate into components based on chemical properties
• Mixtures
– Different samples may show different properties
– Variable composition
– Homogeneous or Heterogeneous
– Separate into components based on physical properties
• All mixtures are made of pure substances

Identity Each of the following as a Pure
Substance, Homogeneous Mixture or
Heterogeneous Mixture
Table salt in water
Sand in water
Copper metal

17
Identity Each of the following as a Pure
Substance, Homogeneous Mixture or
Heterogeneous Mixture
Table salt in water
– a homogenous mixture - solution
Sand in water
– a heterogeneous mixture
Copper metal
– A pure substance (all elements are pure substances)

Separation of Mixtures
• Separate mixtures based on different
physical properties of the components
– Physical change

Energy and Energy Changes
• Capacity to do work
– chemical, mechanical, thermal, electrical,
radiant, sound, nuclear
• Energy may affect matter
– e.g. raise its temperature (heat energy),
eventually causing a state change
– All physical changes and chemical changes
involve energy changes

Heat
Heat: a flow of
energy due to a
temperature
difference

22
Heat
•
Heat: a flow of energy due to a temperature
difference
1. Exothermic = A process that results in the
evolution of heat.
• Example: when a match is struck, it is an
exothermic process because energy is produced as
heat.
2. Endothermic = A process that absorbs energy.
• Example: melting ice to form liquid water is an
endothermic process.

Units of Energy
• One calorie is the amount of energy needed to raise the
temperature of one gram of water by 1°C
– kcal = energy needed to raise the temperature of 1000 g of
water 1°C
• joule
– 4.184 J = 1 cal
• In nutrition, calories are capitalized
– 1 Cal = 1 kcal

Example - Converting Calories to Joules
Convert 60.1 cal to joules:
1 cal  4.184 joules
4.184 J
60.1cal 
 251J
1 cal

Energy and the Temperature of Matter
• The amount the temperature of an object
increases depends on the amount of heat
added (Q).
– If you double the added heat energy the
temperature will increase twice as much.
• The amount the temperature of an object
increases depends on its mass
– If you double the mass it will take twice as
much heat energy to raise the temperature the
same amount.

Specific Heat Capacity
• Specific Heat (s) is the amount of energy
required to raise the temperature of one
gram of a substance by one Celsius degree
J
By definition , the specific heat of water is 4.184
g C
Amount of Heat = Specific Heat x Mass x Temperature Change
Q = s x m x T

27
Example 1 – Calculate the amount of heat
energy (in joules) needed to raise the
temperature of 7.40 g of water from 29.0°C to
46.0°C:
JJ
Specific Heat of Water = 4.184
gg-CC
Mass = 7.40 g
Temperature Change = 46.0°C – 29.0°C = 17.0°C
Q = s x m x T
J
Heat  4.184
 7.40g  17.0C  526 J
g C

Example 2 – A 1.6 g sample of metal that appears
to be gold requires 5.8 J to raise the temperature
from 23°C to 41°C. Is the metal pure gold
(specific heat)?
Q  s  m  T
Q
s
m  T
T  41C - 23C  18C
5.8 J
J
s
 0.20
1.6 g x 18C
g C
Table 3.2 lists the specific heat of gold as 0.13
Therefore the metal cannot be pure gold.
