Matter

• Matter is anything that has mass and takes up
  space.
• Anything that isnt matter is energy.

3
Elements

• The smallest piece of an element is an atom.
• Cannot be broken down into smaller substances by
  ordinary means.

• The smallest piece of matter that still has the
  properties of this type of matter.
• Examples are all the substances listed on the

Elements
5
Compounds

• The smallest piece of a compound is a molecule.
• Two or more atoms that are bonded together to
  form a new substance with new characteristics

6
Compounds

• Cannot be separated except by chemical reactions.
• Combined elements lose their own identities to
  become something new.
• Elements always combine in definite ratios.

7
Mixtures

• Combination of 2 or more substances that are
  mixed (not bonded) together.
• Can be separated by physical means using physical
  properties like melting point, boiling point,
  density, color, shape, magnetism, solubility,

8
Mixtures

• No definite proportions or single formula
• Individual parts retain their own properties

9
Homogeneous Mixtures

• Homogeneous mixtures are the same all the way
  through.
• Examples are solutions like Pepsi, brass,

10
Heterogeneous Mixture

• Heterogeneous mixtures are not evenly mixed like
  Raisin Bran cereal. Many of the raisins fall to
  the bottom.
