Physical and Chemical Properties.Physical and Chemical Properties.

• Physical properties are properties that do not change the make-up of a substance

• Chemical properties are properties that do change the make-up of a substance.

• Examples: Physical – Color, boiling point, melting point, smell, viscosity and density. Chemical – reactivity, PH, flammability, chemical stability, and toxicity.

There are rings called shells on the outside of the nucleus that fit the electrons. outside of the nucleus that fit the electrons. Only two can fit on the first shell, eight on the Only two can fit on the first shell, eight on the second, eighteen on the third, thirty-two on the second, eighteen on the third, thirty-two on the forth, etc. forth, etc.

ElementsElements

An element is made up of An element is made up of different atoms put together. For different atoms put together. For example if you have a nucleus example if you have a nucleus with one electron you get the with one electron you get the element Hydrogen. If you have element Hydrogen. If you have two electrons you get Helium, etc.two electrons you get Helium, etc.

Examples of elements: Oxygen, Examples of elements: Oxygen, Carbon, Magnesium, Sodium, and Carbon, Magnesium, Sodium, and iron. iron.

CompoundsCompounds

A compound is when two or more A compound is when two or more different elements are being different elements are being combined (chemical change). combined (chemical change).

Examples of compounds: Water, COExamples of compounds: Water, CO22, , Table salt, Rock salt, and glucose.Table salt, Rock salt, and glucose.

Periodic Table

The Periodic Table tells you the atomic number of an element which is the number of protons and electrons. It also tells you the atomic mass of the element. If you subtract the atomic mass by the atomic number then you get the number of neutrons in that element. It also tells you if it’s a metal, metalloid, or non-metal. Also it says if that element is normally found as a solid, liquid, or gas.

Substances and Mixtures

• A substance is a chemical combination of elements or compounds to make a new compound.

• Mixtures are physical combinations of elements or compounds but they do NOT change their make-up.

• Examples: Substances – salt, sugar, sodium chloride, diamond, and water. Mixtures – Cake batter, concrete, salt water, salad dressing, and even the air we breath.

Heterogeneous and Homogeneous

In a heterogeneous mixture you can see the different parts of the mixture.

In a homogeneous mixture you can’t see the different parts of the mixture.

Examples: Heterogeneous mixture – salads, trail mix, sand and water, chicken soup, and orange juice with pulp. Homogeneous mixture – salt water, tea, coffee, blood, sugary water.

Solutions

A solution is when a solute is dissolved in a solvent. Usually the solvent is water and the solute is whatever you want. You can have any solvent but water is the most common one. The solute is the thing being dissolved and the solvent is the thing that the solute is being dissolved by/in.

Examples of solutions: water and salt/ water and sugar/ water, sugar, lemon juice/ water and kool-aid mix/ herbs, water, sugar.

Solubility

Solubility is how easily a solid, liquid, or gas dissolves in water. To make a substance dissolve faster you can do three things add heat, pressure, or mix it faster.

So solubility is how easily a solute dissolves in the solvent it is being dissolved in.
