Pure Sybstance
Aka substance
A type of matter with a fixed composition. Can be an element or a compound.

Elements
A substance in which all the atoms have the same identity.

There are about 90 elements on Earth. Over 20 have been made in labs, but most are unstable.

Compound
A substance in which the atoms of 2 or more elements are combined in a fixed proportion.

Heterogenous Mixtures

Mixtures in which you can see the different materials

Homogenous Mixture

A mixture with two or more substances evenly blended together.

Colloids

Mixtures with larger particles that do not settle out.

Photo by Erika Hall

Colloids can be detected using light. If the particles scatter light you can tell the mixture is a colloid. This is the Tyndall Effect.

Suspension

Liquid in which visible particles settle out. Ex: pond water

PROPERTIES OF MATTER

THERE ARE PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL PROPERTIES

A physical property is any characteristic that you can observe without changing the identity of the substances in the material.

Some physical properties include :
Appearance
Behaviors

Physical change involves altering the physical properties but not the identity of the materials.

Chemical properties are characteristics of a substance that indicate whether it can undergo a certain chemical change.
Ex: flammability

Chemical change is when a substance changes it's identity. There is a change from one substance to another.
Ex: a rusty bike, alka-seltzer in a glass of water.

Detecting Chemical Change

Clues such as heat, cooling, formation of bubbles, or solids forming in a liquid

Remember that mass is conserved, so it cannot disappear.
