, Chemistry
Matter and Classification
• Matter: made up of particles whose properties determine the observable characteristics
of matter and its reactivity.
• Properties of materials:
• Strength
• Brittle: Hard but likely to break easily
• Malleable: Ability to be hammered or pressed into shape without breaking or cracking
• Ductile: Ability to be stretched into a wire
• Density: The mass per unit volume of a substance
• Melting point: The temperature at which a solid, given sufficient heat, becomes a liquid
• Boiling point: The temperature of a liquid at which its vapour pressure equals the
external (atmospheric) pressure
Mixtures and Pure Substances
• Homogenous mixture: a mixture of uniform composition and in which all components
are in the same phase
• Heterogenous mixture: a mixture of non-uniform composition and of which all the
components can be easily identified
