What are difference between compounds, mixture and elements?

A compound is a substance that is formed by combining two are more chemical elements. A mixture is a substance created from two or more matter that can be separated with the help of physical methods. Compound substances are always homogeneous in nature.
1.
2. How can you determine whether
something is an element or not?
They are all listed on the periodic table.
ELEMENT SO
NG
3. 1. Pure substance
– Made of only 1 type
of particle
– Ex: copper wire only
has copper atoms
2. Can’t be separated
into simpler
substances by
chemical or physical
means
4. 3. Each has a unique
set of properties
– Called characteristic
properties
– Can be physical or
chemical
4. Classified by their
properties
Elements
1. Metals
2. Nonmetals Metals Metalloids
3. Metalloids Nonmetals
5. Develop the concept map by adding
info. about metals, nonmetals, &
metalloids
METALLOIDS
METALS
•Shiny NONMETALS •Characteristics of
metals and nonmetals
•Good conductors •Dull (no shine)
•Malleable •Poor conductors •Semiconductors
•Ductile •At room temp, only a •Ex: silicon, germanium
few are solids that
•Ex: gold, silver,
are brittle
copper
•Most are gases
•Ex: hydrogen,
oxygen, helium
6. Use placement on the Periodic
Table to classify elements
7. • Do you know any compounds?
• How are they different from elements?
• Characteristics
1. Found in nature more often than pure elements
2. Have more than one element
3. Elements are chemically bonded to each other
– Mg + O2 makes MgO
4. Pure substances that occur in fixed ratios by mass
– 1g H to 8g of O in every water molecule
5. Can’t be separated by physical means
6. Have their own unique set of properties
8. CLASSIFICATION OF MATTER
9. Mixtures
• 2 or more substances that are not chemically
bonded
– So diff parts keep their own properties
• Ex:
– pizza
– granite
– Kool-aid
– Brass
– Jello
• Parts do not occur in a definite ratio
– Compare the 2 pepperoni pizzas
10. Mixtures
• Can be physically separated by
1. Distillation
2. Magnet
3. Centrifuge
4. Filtration
5. Evaporation
11. ELEMENTS COMPOUNDS MIXTURES
12. Mixtures
•Can be heterogeneous (see diff pieces) or
homogeneous (uniform appearance)
•Homogeneous mixtures are called solutions
•Heterogeneous mixtures include suspensions
•Colloids are classified as heterogeneous in some
books and homogeneous in others
13. Solutions – look the same throughout
From Chem4kids
• How much solute can
dissolve in water?
• Solubility graph can tell you
1. Most compounds show
a(n) ________ in
solubility as temp. inc.
2. Which compound shows
the greatest increase in
solubility as temp inc?
3. Which compound(s)
actually dec in solubility
as temp inc.?
4. How much potassium
nitrate will dissolve in
100 ml of water at 40oC?
5. How much sodium
nitrate will dissolve in
100 ml of water at 90oC?
14. Solubility Graph
1. Which compound
shows the greatest
increase in solubility as
temp inc?
2. Which compound(s)
actually decrease in
solubility as temp inc.?
3. Which compound has
the highest solubility at
58oC?
15. Fill-in the Venn
diagram with
16. •Ex: •Don’t scatter light/
Kool- light passes right thru
aid, salt
•Smallest solute
water,
particles
brass
•Do not settle out
Can pour
some •Pass thru filter
paper
•mixtures
•Settle out on standing
•Separate w/filter paper
•Medium particle
•Largest particle size (seen)
•Scatter size
•Ex: blood, muddy water, light •Don’t easily pour
Italian salad dressing
•Ex: Jell-o, fog,
milk, mayo,
whipped cream
