chemical changes
composition of matter ALWAYS changes
Chemical property
can be observed only when a substance transofrms into new subtances
physical changes
composition of matter NEVER changes
composition
describes identity and ration of chemical elements that make up a substance
states of matter
gas, liquid, solid
clues chemical changes has happened
-transfer of energy
-unexpected change of color
-production of gas
-formation of precipitate, isoluble solid that forms and settles out of a liquid
element
simple form of matter, unique set of properties
compound
substance that contains 2 or mmore elemets chemically combined
mixture
physiccal blend of 2 or more components
heterogenerous mixtures
composition is not uniform throughout
homogenous mix
composition is uniform
suspension
heterogenous mixture from which particles settle out upon standing
examplle of suspension
sand and water
colloid
do not seperate on stading
examplle of colloid
