Chemistry is the study of matter, its properties and the changes it can undergo.
We have defined matter many times in your science classes.
Discuss with your classmates and define matter in your own words.
Matter and Chemistry?
6
Look around the classroom. Can you identify any examples of matter?
Where did it all come from?
Does all the "stuff" work with the definition you came up with?
Matter
7
What Are Atoms?All the matter in the universe is composed of basic building blocks
called atoms.
An atom is the smallest indivisible and indestructable unit of matter.
If you made a tiny dot with the tip of a sharp graphite pencil, that little dot would have about
four billion billion carbon atoms in it.
Atoms are really small!
8
What Are Atoms?Atoms are the basic unit of matter.
How are atoms like legos? Discuss with your classmates?
9
What Are Atoms?Atoms are the basic units of matter and indivisible.
You can break the lego house into individual lego pieces, but individual legos cannot be broken down further and still be
functional legos.
Similiarly, matter can be broken down into atoms, but atoms cannot be further divided and maintain their properties and function.
10
Atoms and ElementsLike the lego house below is made up of different types of legos, matter is made up of different types of atoms called elements.
Amazingly, all of the matter in the Universe is made up of only around 100 different elements in various combinations.
Almost 99% of the human body is made up of just 6 different elements!

The Makeup of Atoms
Atoms are made up of 3 parts, known as subatomic particles. Each particle has a different charge.
Memory tricks have been underlined for you!
17
How Did We Get the First Atoms?We have talked about the Big Bang in years past as well.Take a few minutes to review what you know about the Big Bang.Write down some ideas here.
18
How Did We Get the First Atoms?
When the Big Bang first happened, the universe was very hot.
(20,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000* times hotter than our Sun!)
*That number is 20 octillion !
After a few minutes, it cooled down to the point that protons and neutrons were able to join together.

19
How Did We Get the First Atoms?Soon after the Big Bang, these particles captured objects called electrons.
This is because opposite charges are attracted to each other.
When this happened, the first two elements (and consequently the first atoms) were formed.
Hydrogenand Helium
Does anyone have an idea what the first two elements formed were?
Hint: think about the periodic table. Move this box for the answer once you
have your idea.
20
Because you will need this information later, keep in mind this old phrase:
"Opposites Attract"
What this means is that, just like a magnet, the positive proton and the negative electron attract each other!
Proton Electron
Opposites Attract
21
The center of the atom is called the nucleus . Protons and neutrons are found there.
Electrons move around the nucleus in the electron shell.
The space between the nucleus and the electron shell is empty.
How are Atoms Arranged?
We now know that an atom is made up of protons, neutrons, and electrons... but how are these 3 particles arranged in the atom?
22
Let's imagine an atom filled the distance from New York to Ohio. That is about 1030km.
At this scale, the nucleus would only be about the length of a football field. A football field is only 100m.
Relative Size of Atomic Particles
A proton would be about the height of a three story apartment building! That is about 9m.
And an electron would be about the width of a blueberry. A blueberry is only 1cm.
What does that tell us about this drawing of an atom?Is it accurate?

How Do We Measure Matter?
Return to Tableof Contents
28
We have previously defined the amount of matter or the amount of "stuff" as its mass.
Mass is measured in grams (g) or kilograms (kg). (1 kg = 1,000 g*)
Mass
"kilo" = 1,000
29
Many times we use the words weight and mass
interchangeably (or we use them to mean the same thing).
However, this is wrong!
Can you remember what the difference is between weight and mass? Talk about it with your
partner.
Weight vs Mass
30
Weight is the measure of the force of gravity on an object. Weight is measured in pounds
(lbs) or Newtons (N).
On Earth, all objects are attracted to the center of Earth
by the force of gravity.
The force of gravity can be more or less on the Moon or on other planets, depending on
their sizes.
Weight
31
On the other hand, the amount of matter (stuff) in an object does not change with the object's location.
While your weight (gravitational force) may change if you travel
to the moon, the mass (amount of "stuff") in your body does not change.
This is because the gravity on the moon is much less than it is on Earth.Why is this?
Therefore, the weight of an object changes with its location.

35
The amount of 'space' that matter occupies is called its volume. Volume is measured in milliliters (mL) and cubic centimeters (cm³).
1 milliliter (mL) = 1 cubic centimeter (cm3)
Volume
36
To find the volume of a regular, boxshaped object you can measure its sides and multiply its measurements:
Volume = (length) x (width) x (height)
Measurements have units so you also multiply the units.
Units = (cm) x (cm) x (cm) = cm³

Volume of the diamond
1. Pour water into a graduated cylinder. Record the amount of water.2. Place the object into graduated cylinder.3. Record measurement of water level after the object was submerged.4. Subtract original water level from ending water level.
To find the volume of this object:
41
Example:
The volume of the water was 30 mL. After dropping the diamond intothe graduated cylinder, the total volume increased to 46 mL.
46 mL 30 mL = 16 mL
The volume of the diamond is 16 mL.

The Simplest Form of Matter: Elements of the Periodic Table
Return to Tableof Contents
45
The number of protons in an atom determines which element it is. In the 1800’s scientists discovered different elements have different
properties because they have different numbers of protons and electrons.

In the mid1800s, a Russian chemist named Dmitri Mendeleev created his own version of the periodic table of elements by arranging the
elements based on their properties, or characteristics.
He noticed that in doing this, there was a noticeable pattern in the atomic mass or atomic weight of the elements.
The First Periodic Table of Elements
47
Modern Periodic Table of ElementsMendeleev's format of the periodic table was used until around 1913. At
this time Henry Moseley, a British scientist, discovered the way to measure the number of protons in an element.
Having this number made it easier to describe the atoms of each element. Soon after, the table was rearranged using this amount, known
as an element's atomic number.

How is the Table Arranged?
The current table is arranged into seven horizontal rows called periods.
The period number tells you the number of layers there are in the atom's electron shell.
52
Because the pattern of
properties repeats in every period, the elements in each group have
similar characteristics.
The Group number tells you the number of electrons in the atom's outermost shell. Ex: Elements in Group 17 have 7 electrons in their
outer shells. (For Groups 1318, you subtract "10")
The table is also arranged in 18 vertical columns called groups that are numbered from left to right.

Properties of Matter:Physical Properties
Return to Tableof Contents
60
Every type of matter has two kinds of properties: physical and chemical.
A physical property is a characteristic that can been observed without changing the substance into a new one.
Physical properties include: hardness, texture, density, flexibility, color, the ability to dissolve, magnetism, melting point, boiling point and the
substance's physical state (solid/liquid/gas).
Physical Properties
List some physical properties of this brick wall.
61
Some physical properties of substances are unique. Therefore, these properties can be used to determine mystery objects.
Using Physical Properties to Identify Substances
Imagine if someone wanted to sell you this "gold" coin. You can use the known physical properties of gold in order to test
if the seller is telling you the truth.
We will be looking at the physical properties of various elements in the Periodic Table.
62
Physical Properties of ElementsElements of the same group are sometimes said to be in the same
family. This is because elements that are grouped together often have similar properties.
Below, the elements are grouped into their respective families.H1

What are some physical properties of the metals you see? Make a list.
Metals
Remember: Physical properties include hardness, texture, flexibility, color, the ability to dissolve, magnetism and if the object is solid, liquid, or gas.
64
Metals are malleable which means they are able to be hammered or rolled into
flat sheets or shapes.
Some metals are attracted to magnets.
Properties of Metals
65
Metals are ductile so they are able to be pulled or stretched out into long wire.
Most metals are good conductors, so they transfer heat and electricity well.

Density: A PhysicalProperty
Return to Tableof Contents
93
Demo: Density Column
Have you ever wondered what makes an object "sink"
or "float?"
Why does the red substance below float to the
top of the test tube? Why does the blue substance sink?
94
Density is a measure of how much mass is contained in a given volume.
Density is a measure of how much ‘stuff’ there is in an object,
and how tightly that ‘stuff’ is packed together.
To calculate for density, the following formula is used:
Density = Mass / Volume
or
D = M / V
Density
95
Mass is measured in grams (g) and volume may be measured in cubic centimeters (cm3). Therefore, one unit for density is grams
per cubic centimeters (g/cm3).
Units for Density
There are two different units for density:
We have already learned that volume can also be measured in milliliters (mL) and we know that 1 mL = 1 cm3.
Therefore, density can also be measured in grams per milliliter (g/mL).
96
27 Which of the following is a unit for density? Choose all that apply.

Solids have definite shape and definite volume. This means that a solid will not freely change what it looks like.
Look around the classroom and identify several objects that meet this criteria. Do those objects have a definite shape
and a definite volume?

The pencils to the left are solids. If left alone, they will maintain this
shape and size.

Look around the classroom and identify ten objects that meet this criteria and write them down here. This should be an easy task.
Solids
Do those objects have a definite shape and a definite volume?
114
The particles of a solid are strongly attracted to each other.
Solids will keep their shape because of this strong attraction.
The particles don't move past each other, but vibrate.
There are two types of solids: crystalline and amorphous.

The particles of a liquid are attracted to each other, but move more freely than the particles of a solid. Because of this, they are also referred
to as fluids.
Unlike in a solid, the particles of a liquid are able to move past
one another.
Liquids
122
Because the particles move freely around, a liquid has no definite shape.
A liquid has a definite volume but NOT a definite shape.
Characteristics of a Liquid
The particles that make up a liquid have more energy than the particles in a solid. This causes them to move around quicker and keeps them
from maintaining a definite shape.
123
This concept can be confusing so we will look at an example:
First, a student fills this bottle with water.
Then, the student then takes this bottle and pours all of the water into an empty pot.
In both situations, you have the same amount of water. However, because the bottle and the pot have different shapes, the shape of the
water is now different.

When a substance is in the form of a gas, its particles are moving very quickly more
quickly than a solid or a liquid. Gas particles have more energy than solids and liquids.
Because of this, a gas changes its volume very easily.
As gas particles move, they will fill all of the space available to them, no matter how much space the gas took up before.
Gases have no definite shape and no definite volume.

Changes of State

134
Changing States of Matter
Matter can freely change from one state (also known as "phase") to another. One of the most common ways for a phase change to occur is
by a change in temperature.
135
EnergyPreviously, we learned that the difference between solids, liquids and gases is the amount of energy in the particles, or atoms, that
make up the object.
Energy is tough to define, but in this case, we can say that it is the speed at which the atoms move throughout the object.
For example, more energy means that the particles are moving more and will be moving quicker.
At right, you can see an example of gas particles in motion.
136
The Energy of MatterDrag the objects below into the correct order based on the amount
of energy in the substances' atoms.
Least energy Most energy1 2 3
137
Applying the Heat
Raising the temperature of an object will cause its particles to move more and to speed up.
On the other hand, lowering the temperature will cause the particles to move less and to slow down.
Click on the picture above to see this in action.
138
Every change of state requires a change in energy. This change can only occur if energy is added or taken away.
Sometimes this energy can come from a change in pressure, but in this unit, we will focus on a change in heat.
Least heat Most heat1 2 3

Change in Energy Change in State
139
Adding thermal energy to a solid increases the temperature of the object.
Increasing temperature causes the particles to move faster. When this happens, the rigid structure of the solid
starts to break apart.
The solid begins to change into a liquid.
Solid Liquid
140
The change in state from solid to liquid is called melting.
The melting point for ice is 32° Fahrenheit (0° Celsius). That is the temperature at which ice becomes water.
Melting
In most substances, melting happens at a specific temperature called the melting point. The melting point is different for all
objects.
141
If thermal energy is removed, the temperature of the object decreases.
Decreasing the temperature causes the particles to move slower. When this happens, the particles align in a rigid structure.
The liquid now begins to change into a solid.
Liquid Solid
142
The change of state from liquid to solid is called freezing. Freezing is the opposite of melting and, therefore, the
freezing and melting points are the same.
When you put liquid water in the freezer, the water loses energy to
the cold air in the freezer.
When the water temperature drops to 32° Fahrenheit (0° Celsius)
the water will freeze.

The change of state from a liquid to a gas is called vaporization.
Liquid Gas
Vaporization occurs when the particles in a liquid gain enough thermal energy to
form a gas.
There are two types of vaporization: evaporation and boiling.
146
Boiling occurs when liquid that is below the surface changes to a gas as a result of heating. For example, when water boils, its particles
bubble and the gas rises.
The temperature at which a substance boils is called its boiling point .
Every element and molecule has a unique boiling point, therefore it can help scientists identify unknown substances.
Boiling
Water boils at 100 o C (212o F).
147
Evaporation is vaporization that takes place slowly on the surface of a liquid.
Evaporation
It is this process that causes puddles or bodies of water (as seen here) to dry up.
The water gains energy from the ground, the air or the sun.
The added energy allows the water molecules on the surface
to evaporate.
148
The opposite of vaporization is condensation. When a gas condenses, it turns back into a liquid.
Condensation occurs when particles in a gas lose enough thermal energy to form a liquid.

Properties of Matter:Chemical Properties
Return to Tableof Contents
168
Chemical Properties We have spent some time discussing physical properties.
A chemical property is a characteristic of a pure substance that describes its ability to change into a new substance.
Chemical properties can only be observed if the matter undergoes a chemical reaction resulting in chemical change.
A chemical reaction between a metal and gas makes table salt.
169
Some chemical properties include flammability (or the ability to burn), the ability to rust , corrosion (or breaking down) and
reactivity (or the ability to bond with other substances).
Matches ignite when you strike them because of a mixture of two substances: phosphorus and potassium chlorate.
These substances are highly flammable, but you would not be able to tell until you lit them on fire!
Examples of Chemical Properties
