CHAPTER 2: MATTER

SECTION 3: CHANGES OF MATTER

STANDARDS
STANDARD 1: MATTER

EXPLORE MATTER IN TERMS OF ITS PHYSICAL AND CHEMICAL
PROPERTIES
EVALUATE PURE SUBSTANCES AND MIXTURES
INVESTIGATE CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL CHANGES

OBJECTIVES
1. CONTRAST BETWEEN CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL CHANGES

2. LIST THE WAYS TO IDENTIFY A CHEMICAL CHANGE

3. EXPLAIN HOW TO BREAK DOWN A MIXTURE AND A COMPOUND

4. IDENTIFY WHETHER A CHANGE IN MATTER IS CHEMICAL OR
PHYSICAL IN NATURE
PHYSICAL VS CHEMICAL CHANGES
PHYSICAL CHANGE
AFFECT ONE OR MORE PHYSICAL
PROPERTIES
DOES NOT CHANGE THE SUBSTANCE
ARRANGEMENT OF ATOMS STAYS
THE SAME!
PROPERTIES OF THE SUBSTANCE DO
NOT CHANGE
BOTH THE CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL
PROPERTIES STAY THE SAME!!
EXAMPLES: CUTTING, CHANGES OF
STATE, DISSOLVING, ETC.

CHEMICAL CHANGE
AFFECTS ONE OR MORE CHEMICAL
PROPERTIES
FORM A NEW SUBSTANCES!
DOES CHANGE THE SUBSTANCE
ARRANGEMENT OF ATOMS IS
DIFFERENT!
PROPERTIES OF THE SUBSTANCE ARE
DIFFERENT
BOTH CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL
PROPERTIES ARE DIFFERENT!
EXAMPLES: METALS RUST, BAKING,
COOKING , ETC.

Objective 1:
Contrast between
chemical and
physical changes
DETECTION OF CHEMICAL CHANGES
CLUES TO WHEN A CHEMICAL CHANGE OCCURS!
CHANGES IN COLOR
FIZZING OR FOAMING
PRODUCTION OF
LIGHT
HEAT
SOUND
CHANGE IN SMELL
REMEMBER: CHEMICAL CHANGES CHANGE THE IDENTITY OF A
SUBSTANCE WHEREAS PHYSICAL CHANGES DO NOT!
Objective 2: List the ways
to identify a chemical
change
BREAKING DOWN SUBSTANCES
MIXTURES CAN BE SEPARATED BY
PHYSICAL CHANGES
EXAMPLE: SEPARATING A MIXTURE OF WATER AND SALT
YOU WOULD TAKE THE SALT WATER MIXTURE AND BOIL IT TO REMOVE THE WATER
AND YOU WILL THEN BE LEFT WITH THE SALT
ALL SUBSTANCES STAY THE SAME!
SOME COMPOUNDS CAN BE SEPARATED BY
CHEMICAL CHANGES
EXAMPLE: SEPARATING THE ELEMENTS IN WATER
YOU WOULD SEND AN ELECTRIC CURRENT THROUGH THE WATER WHICH WILL
THEN SEPARATE THE OXYGEN FROM THE HYDROGEN
ALL SUBSTANCES ARE CHANGING

Objective 3: Explain how
to break down a mixture
and a compound
IDENTIFYING CHANGES
IDENTIFY WHETHER IT IS A PHYSICAL OR CHEMICAL CHANGE
MILK SOURS IF LEFT OUT ON THE COUNTER
ICE MELTING INTO WATER
CAKE BAKING IN OVEN
IRON RUSTING WHEN IN CONTACT WITH OXYGEN
LEAVES CHANGING COLOR IN THE FALL
SALT DISSOLVING IN WATER
DRY ICE SUBLIMING INTO CARBON DIOXIDE
PEROXIDE BUBBLING WHEN IN CONTACT WITH BLOOD
WATER CONDENSING ON A COLD GLASS
Objective 4: Identify
whether a change in
matter is chemical or
physical in nature
