Matter Matter = any material substance with Mass & Volume
Matter Solid Liquid Gas comes in 3 phases
Solid Definite Shape Definite Volume
Liquid Indefinite Shape – takes the shape of the container Definite Volume
Gas Indefinite Shape – takes the shape of the container Indefinite Volume – can expand and be compressed
Elements one of the 100+ pure substances that make up everything in the universe
Examples of Elements H= Hydrogen C= Carbon O= Oxygen N= Nitrogen S= Sulfur Na= Sodium Ca= Calcium K= Potassium I= Iodine Cl= Chlorine P= Phosphorus
Atom the smallest particle making up elements
Sub-atomic Particles Protons p+ p+ - positive charge, in nucleus Electrons - e - negative charge, orbiting nucleus Neutrons n0 n0 – no charge, in nucleus
Drawing an Atom of Carbon C Atomic Mass Atomic # minus Atomic # = # of n0n0 = # p+ p+ and # of e-e- Carbon has 6 p + and 6 e - Carbon has 6 n 0
Drawing an Atom of Carbon 6 p + 6 n 0 e-e- e-e- e-e- e-e- e-e- e-e-
Compounds - 2 or more elements chemically combined to form a new substance with new properties Properties – The way a chemical substance looks and behaves
Compounds Compounds – are made of 2 or more different atoms combined to form Molecules H + O H 2 O = H O H Chemical formula lists the number of different atoms in a single molecule Structural formula shows the arrangement of the atoms in a single molecule
Molecules Glucose Sugar C 6 H 12 O 6 Chemical formula C H OH CC C CC H H H H H H OH O O H H O OH Structural formula
Compounds Inorganic Compounds or Organic Compounds usually don’t contain Carbon generally come from the earth generally simple molecules always contain C & H and usually O, N, sometimes S & P originate in organisms generally complex molecules
Examples of Inorganic Compounds H + O = H 2 O = Water H + Cl = HCl = Hydrochloric Acid C + O = CO 2 = Carbon Dioxide Na + Cl = NaCl = Common Table Salt
Examples of Organic Compounds C, H + O Carbohydrates = Sugars, starches & cellulose C, H + O Lipids = Fats & Oils C, H, O, N, & sometimes P + S Proteins C, H, O, N, + P Nucleic Acids – DNA & RNA
