Matter and composition
Properties: 1. they are made up of small particles. 2. They have space between them 3. Particles are continuously moving 4. Particles
attract each other
Physical classification:
BOSE-EINSTEIN CONDESATION STATE: discovered in 1920. Formed by cooling a gas of extremely low density. Atoms join together
and form super atom. Very low KE and high force and attraction.
BOLING POINT: VAPOUR PRESSURE= ATM PRESSURE MELTING POINT: TEMP. AT WHICH SOLID CHANGES INTO A
LIQUID.
NOTE: -40 is the temp. Same at both degree and Fahrenheit. Lowest possible temperature: -273.1 C
ROOM TEMP: 25-27 C NORMAL BODY TEMP. = 37C DENSITY OF ICE IS MORE THAN WATER
LATENT HEAT: Energy absorbed or released by a substance during change in physical state without change in its temp.
DIFFUSION: Movement of any substance from high conc. To lower conc. Region. It occurs in all directions.
PURE SUBSTANCE: Contains single type of particles. Same in their chemical nature. Matter cannot be separated by any physical process.
ELEMENT: Simple and basic form of pure substance which cannot be broken into simpler substances by any physical or chemical
method. Made up of only one kind of atom.
Sonorous Non-sonorous
Good conductors of heat and electricity [best: silver & poor: lead] Poor conductors of heat and electricity [ except graphite]
Produce basic oxide when dissolved in water Produce acidic oxide when dissolved in water
Form cation and are good reducing agent Form anion and are good oxidizing agent
Have high density [except Na&K] Low density [except diamond]
Non brittle [except Zn] Brittle [except gases]
In vapour state are monoatomic Polyatomic in vapour state
METTALOID: Materials which posses both metal and non metals. Ex: boron, germanium, silicon antimony, arsenic, tellurium and
pollanium.
AMPHOTERIC: Oxides which shows both acidic and basic behaviors to produce salt and water. Ex: ZnO, PbO, Cr2O3, Fe2O3 etc.
Whenever sodium or potassium is exposed to air it catches fire. Hence, they are kept in kerosene.
Some metals react with water to form metal hydroxide whereas some of them do not react. Reactivity with water differs from metal to
metal.
Metals like sodium and potassium are highly reactive. They react with water to form alkalis such as sodium hydroxide and potassium
hydroxide. Calcium also reacts with water to form calcium hydroxide and hydrogen. Whereas, magnesium and zinc do not react with
cold water. They form their respective oxides when reacted with hot water. Iron reacts with steam to form magnetic oxides.
Metals like sodium, potassium, lithium and calcium react vigorously with dilute HCl and H 2SO4 to form their metal salt and hydrogen.
While magnesium, zinc, irons, tin and lead do not react vigorously with acids.
Metals that are more reactive will readily with less reactive metals. More reactive metal displaces the less reactive metal from its oxides,
chlorides or sulphides.

Reaction of Non Metal with Oxygen Reaction of Non metals with bases
Non metals + O2 Non metallic oxide / Acidic oxide Form salts when reacted with bases
Do not react with water to produce h2 gas because they cannot reduce hydrogen ions of water to h2 gas. Except highly reactive non
metals.
Do not react with dil. acids because they act as electron acceptor and can’t supply to H+ ions of acid to reduce them to hydrogen acid. But
As we go down the reactivity of non metal decreases due to the increase on the number of shells and tendency to lose electrons. Also the
IONIC BONDS: Are formed due to the transfer of electrons from metals to non-metals. Ions with opposite charges attract each other to
Properties: 1. Solid compounds due to strong force of attraction. 2. Compounds are brittle 3. Compounds have high MP&BP
4. Compounds dissolve in water 5. Insoluble in organic solvents 6. Do not conduct electricity in solid state
ORE: Impurities from which metal is extracted.
CALCINATION: Carbonate ores heated in absence of oxygen. CO2 gas will be released.
ROASTING: Sulphide ores heated in presence of oxygen. SO2 gas will be released
TYPES OF ALLOYS:
CORROSION: Metals het corroded when exposed o moist air for long period of time
COMPOUMDS: Pure substances that are composed of 2 or more different elements in fixed proportion by mass.
Organic: which are obtained from living sources? Inorganic: obtained from non-living sources.
Compounds are formed by the chemical reaction between 2 elements. Constituents cannot be separated by physical or mechanical
means.
MIXTURE: Combination of more than one kind of pure substances in any ratio. Constituents can be separated by physical methods.
HOMOGENOUS HETEROGENOUS
Uniform composition Non-uniform composition
Single phase and no physical separation 2 or more phases and physical separation is possible.
Size of particle is small Size of particle is very large and can be visible by naked eye
Tyndall effect can be observed when a fine beam of light enters a room through a small hole. This happens due to scattering of light by
the particles of dust and smoke in the air.
CONCENTATION OF A SOLUTION:
