Physical and Chemical Changes

Obtained and modified from: http://mysite.verizon.net/vze4gq6z/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderfiles/physicalchemicalchangesppt.ppt

All matter, regardless of state, undergoes physical and chemical changes. These changes can be microscopic or macroscopic.

Physical and chemical properties may be intensive or extensive.

Intensive properties such as density, color, and boiling point do not depend on the size of the sample of matter and can be used to identify substances.

Extensive properties such as mass and volume do depend on the quantity of the sample.

Physical properties are those that we can determine without changing the identity of the substance we are studying.

The physical properties of sodium metal can be observed or measured. It is a soft, lustrous, silver-colored metal with a relatively low melting point and low density.

Hardness, color, melting point and density are all physical properties.

A physical change occurs when the substance changes state but does not change its chemical composition. For example: water freezing into ice, cutting a piece of wood into smaller pieces, etc. The form or appearance has changed, but the properties of that substance are the same (i.e. it has the same melting point, boiling point, chemical composition, etc.)

Chemical properties describe the way a substance can change or react to form other substances. These properties, then, must be determined using a process that changes the identity of the substance of interest.

CHEMICAL PROPERTIESCHEMICAL PROPERTIES

A chemical property must describe how some substance REACTS or DOES NOT REACT with other substances.

In other words, they describe how a substance will be changed or will not be changed when it interacts with other substances.

One of the chemical properties of alkali metals such as sodium and potassium is that they react with water. To determine this, we would have to combine an alkali metal with water and observe what happens.

In other words, we have to define chemical properties of a substance by the chemical changes it undergoes.

A chemical change occurs when a substance changes into something new. This occurs due to heating, chemical reaction, etc. You can tell a chemical change has occurred if the density, melting point or freezing point of the original substance changes. Many common signs of a chemical change can be seen (change in color, change in temperature, formation of a gas, emission of light, formation of a precipitate).

•Solids•Liquids•Gases•Plasma

(And how the Kinetic Molecular Theory affects each)

•Have a definite shape•Have a definite volume

Molecules are held close together and there is very little movement between them.

Kinetic Molecular Theory

•Have an indefinite shape•Have a definite volume

Kinetic Molecular Theory:Atoms and molecules have more space between them than a solid does, but less than a gas (ie. It is more “fluid”.)

•Have an indefinite shape•Have an indefinite volume

Kinetic Molecular Theory:

Molecules are moving in random patterns with varying amounts of distance between the particles.

At 100°C, water becomes water vapor, a gas. Molecules can move randomly over large distances.

Below 0°C, water solidifies to become ice. In the solid state, water molecules are held together in a rigid structure.

Between 0°C and 100 °C, water is a liquid. In the liquid state, water molecules are close together, but can move about freely.

On earth we live upon an island of "ordinary" matter. The different states of matter generally found on earth are solid, liquid, and gas. We have learned to work, play, and rest using these familiar states of matter. Sir William Crookes, an English physicist, identified a fourth state of matter, now called plasma, in 1879.

Plasma is by far the most common form of matter. Plasma in the stars and in the tenuous space between them makes up over 99% of the visible universe and perhaps most of that which is not visible.

Osmium is a very dense metal. What is its density in g/cm3 if 50.00 g of the metal occupiesa volume of 2.22cm3?

1) 2.25 g/cm3

2) 22.5 g/cm3

3) 111 g/cm3

lecturePLUS Timberlake 30

Solution Solution

2) Placing the mass and volume of the osmium metal into the density setup, we obtain

D = mass = 50.00 g = volume 2.22 cm3

= 22.522522 g/cm3 = 22.5 g/cm3

What is the density (g/cm3) of 48 g of a metal if the metal raises the level of water in a graduated cylinder from 25 mL to 33 mL? 1) 0.2 g/ cm3 2) 6 g/m3 3) 252 g/cm3

33 mL 25 mL lecturePLUS Timberlake 33

Solution Solution 2) 6 g/cm3

Volume (mL) of water displaced = 33 mL - 25 mL = 8 mL

Volume of metal (cm3) = 8 mL x 1 cm3 = 8 cm3

1 mLDensity of metal = mass = 48 g = 6 g/cm3
