Review of Grade 9 Chemistry

Part A: Classification of Matter

Matteris anything that has ________ and takes up _______________.


- Matter can be classified according to its composition, e.g., as a mixture or a pure
substance
- Matter can be described by its physical and chemical properties
- Matter can undergo a physical or chemical change

Pure substance: A substance in which all particles making up the substance are the same.

An element is a pure substance that is made of atoms, and thus cannot be broken down
into simpler substances.
e.g., gold, carbon, hydrogen, etc. (see periodic table of elements)

A compound is a pure substance that is made of two or more atoms combined in a fixed
proportion.
e.g. H2O (is always 2 hydrogens and 1 oxygen)
e.g. CO2 (is always 1 carbon and 2 oxygens)

Mixture: A substance in which there are two or more types of particles


- A mixture can be homogeneous or heterogeneous.

A homogeneous mixture is a mixture in which the particles are uniformly scattered.


Only one phase is visible (e.g., solutions such as Kool-Aid)

A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture in which the particles are not uniformly scattered
and therefore have more than one phase. (e.g., oil and water, or trail mix)

Physical property: a characteristic of a substance, observed using either one of the five senses,
or a scientific instrument. May be either qualitative or quantitative. (e.g.,
physical state; colour; odour; taste; lustre; freezing/boiling point;
electrical conductivity)

Chemical property: a characteristic of a substance that describes its ability to react with other
substances (e.g., reaction with water; combustibility; toxicity; stability)

Physical change: involves a substance changing its physical properties. No new substances
are formed, and the change may be reversible. (e.g., freezing water,
dissolving salt in water)

Chemical change: involves a change in matter in which at least one new substance, having new
properties, is formed.

Clues a chemical change has occurred:


1. _______________________________________________________________
2. _______________________________________________________________
3. _______________________________________________________________
4. _______________________________________________________________
5. _______________________________________________________________

Types of Elements:
Metals Metalloids Non-metals
 conduct electricity and  properties of both metals  poor conductors of
heat and non-metals electricity and heat
 malleable  adjacent to staircase line  brittle
 ductile on periodic table  may be solid, gas, or liquid
 usually solid at room (exception: Aluminum is (bromine) at room temp.
temperature (except a metal)  right side of periodic table
mercury)
 left side of periodic table
