What’s the matter…?

  • Just about everything on Earth is either matter or energy

​

    • All matter has mass and volume

​

      • Mass is the amount of “stuff” (or matter) in something
      • Volume is the amount of space something takes up

Matter

Energy

Pure substances: substances that are made of only one type of atom or only one type of molecule.

Ex: Diamond: Carbon

​

A measure of how pure a substance is is called purity.

36 of 96

Elements

Pure substance that cannot be separated into a simpler substance by physical or chemical means

37 of 96

Mixtures

  • A combination of two or more pure substances that are not chemically combined
    • held together by physical forces, not chemical
    • No chemical change
    • They can be separated physically
