• Matter is the physical material of the universe.• Matter is made up of relatively few (ca. 100) elements. • Elements are the building blocks of matter.• On the nano (ultramicroscopic) level, matter consists of atoms. An atom is a “nano-basketball” -- nano = 10 -9.• Atoms usually are found in the combined state, commonly molecules. • Molecules may consist of the same type of atoms or different types of atoms.

CAUTION!!Not all compounds are made up of molecules.Many compounds, for example, are composed of ionic lattices.For this chapter, however, we will confine discussions of compounds to the concept of molecules, which are the combinations of nonmetallic elements.

Classification of MatterClassification of MatterPurePure SubstancesSubstances and and MixturesMixtures
A pure substance cannot be separated into simpler substances by physical means. A pure substance has definite and constant chemical and physical properties (i.e., ignition temp., melting point, magnetic susceptibility, spectral patterns) A pure element is a pure substance that consists only of one kind of atom. Examples of elements: U, P4, Cl2, C60
A pure compound is a pure substance that consists of more than one kind of atom. Examples of compounds: HCl, K2SO4 , C2H6O.

Molecules are chemical combinations of two or more atoms which can all be the same,
e.g., Br2 , H2 , S8 , O3 (these are elements)
or different,
e.g., H2O, C2H5Br (these are compounds) (Elements which have a different number of atoms in their molecule are called allotropes.Allotropes have different physical and chemical properties, e.g., O2 and O3)

Classification of MatterClassification of Matter
Individual elements or compounds are all pure substances.
For example, individual samples of C, Fe, O2, N2, H2O NaCl, K2SO4 are all pure substances.
If different samples are mixed together, this is called a mixture. Mixtures do not have constant compositions.
The composition of a pure substance is constant.(e.g., water is always 88.9% oxygen and 11.1% hydrogen)

Examples of mixtures:
• air (which contains variable amounts of oxygen, nitrogen, carbon dioxide, water vapor, pollutants, etc.
• milk (which contains variable amounts of galactose, minerals, fats, proteins, etc.)
• carbonated drinks (which contain variable amounts of carbon dioxide, sugars, flavorings, etc.)
• “tap” water (which contains dissolved minerals)

If a pure substance can be decomposed (chemically)
into something simpler, then the substance is a compound.
Classification of MatterClassification of MatterPure Substances and MixturesPure Substances and MixturesIf matter is not uniform throughout, then it is a heterogeneous mixture.
If matter is uniform throughout, it is homogeneous.
If homogeneous matter can be separated by physical means, then the matter is a mixture.
If homogeneous matter cannot be separated by physical means, then the matter is a pure substance.

or two letters).• Elements are building blocks of matter.• The earth’s crust consists of 5 main elements. • The human body consists mostly of 3 main elements

• Most elements interact to form compounds.• The proportions of elements in a compound is the
same irrespective of how the compound was formed.• Law of Constant Composition (or Law of Definite
Proportions):
CompoundsCompounds
–The composition of a pure compound is constant (always the same). For example, water is always 88.9% oxygen and 11.1% hydrogen (by mass). For reasons we shall later see, the volumes of hydrogen and oxygen obtained from water are always in a fixed 2:1 ratio.

Properties of MatterProperties of Matter
When a substance undergoes a physical change, its physical appearance changes, but its chemical nature does not.
Physical and Chemical ChangesPhysical and Chemical Changes
Example: the melting of ice (physical change) results in a solid being converted into a liquid, but it is still water. Physical changes do not result in a change of composition.
When a substance changes its composition, it undergoes a chemical change
Example: when pure hydrogen and pure oxygen react completely, they form pure water. In the flask containing water, there is no oxygen or hydrogen left over.

Example: Weigh yourself on your bathroom scales.
Your scales are cheap, and the graduations are every 5 pounds. The precision is bad.
Your scales are expensive, and the graduations are every 0.1 pound. The precision is good.
You know your correct weight from a high-quality scale at the doctor’s office, to within 0.1 pound. You weigh yourself on your bathroom scales and find the reading is off by 10 pounds. The accuracy is bad.
Same situation as above, and find the reading is within 0.1 pound. The accuracy is good.
