SNC1D - Introduction to chemistry!

Chemistry is the study of matter and the changes matter undergoes.

However: Chemistry is all about electrons.

To understand this statement we want to define, classify and organize a number of concepts:

Your task, in pairs, is to graphically organize the following terms in a way that describes the following
terms and shows the relationship between SOME of the terms properly:

matter:
mass and
volume
density
states
energy
pure substances:
elements
compounds
mixtures:
heterogeneous
homogeneous
solution [describe types]
colloid
suspension
tyndall effect
explain how to tell the difference between a homogeneous and heterogeneous solution.

During the lab:

A large number of elements and compounds have been left out on the bench. You must do the following.
define the following terms and use them to investigate the elements and compounds.

qualitative
quantitative
lustre
malleable
ductile
conductivity - thermal and electrical
brittle
hardness
soluble
do not define these, I assume you know: shape, size, colour,
we NEVER taste and rarely smell

Use the above to attempt to cassify the elements in compounds into four groups: be sure to show your
evidence to support your classification.

metals, metalloids [semi-metals], non-metals, compounds

demonstrate [show me] substance, what you think it is, and the data [evidence] to substantiate your
claim.
