N16 - Classification of Material

The document provides information about pure substances and mixtures. It defines a pure substance as something that cannot be broken down physically, listing elements and compounds as examples. Mixtures are combinations of substances that are not chemically bonded and can be separated physically. Mixtures can be either heterogeneous, with identifiable parts of different substances, or homogeneous, where the substances are evenly distributed throughout. The document gives examples of heterogeneous mixtures like salads and dirt, and homogeneous mixtures like soft drinks and brass.

Pure Substances and Mixture Notes


■ Pure substance: a substance that cannot be broken down by physical means
(examples: compounds, elements)
■ Element: a pure substance made of only one type of atom (examples: gold,
carbon)
 Compound: a pure substance consisting of two or more atoms and two or
more different elements chemically bonded together in a specific ratio
(chemical formula) and cannot be separated by physical means.
 Molecule: a pure substance made up of two or more atoms bonded together;
they can be the same element
■ Mixture: a combination of substances that are NOT chemically bonded and can
be separated by physical means.
■ Heterogeneous mixture: a mixture made up of two or more substances whose
parts are easily identifiable (examples: Lucky Charms, mixed vegetables)
■ Homogeneous mixture: a mixture made up of two or more substances but that
are the same throughout (examples: Dr. Pepper, vanilla ice cream)
■ Solution: a mixture of two or more substances that is identical throughout
(example: black coffee)
■ Solute: the part of a solution that is DISSOLVED (example: if you mix lemonade
powder into water, the powder is the solute)
■ Solvent: the part of the solution that DISSOLVES the other material (example: if
you mix lemonade powder in water, the water is solvent)
MATTER
■ Everything around us is either a pure substance, a mixture, or a combination of
both.

MIXTURES
■ Mixtures are a result of a physical change
■ A mixture is a combination of substances that are NOT chemically bonded.
■ Mixtures are different than pure substances because they can be taken apart by
physical processes like boiling, filtering, magnets, using a dropper, distillation and
centrifuging.
■ Mixtures do not have a chemical formula
■ Mixtures are either heterogeneous or homogeneous .
■ Mixtures can be solid, liquid, or gas.

HETEROGENEOUS MIXTURES
 Heterogeneous means different. These are not the same throughout. One section
may have bigger chunks than other sections.
 You can usually see that the parts are different.
 Example:
 Salad
 Chili
 Dirt
 A toy box
HOMOGENEOUS MIXTURES
■ Homogeneous mixtures are the same throughout. You can not usually see the
parts.
■ Examples of homogeneous mixtures:
– Homogenized milk
– Ice cream
– Soft drinks (Coke, Dr. Pepper)
– Air
– Brass
