Made up of two or more substances or materials that are put together by physical means
Mixture
No new substances and or materials are formed because mixing substances and materialstogether does not change their physical properties
Mixture
One or more phases of matter are combined in a mixture and one or more phases can be observed.
Mixture
3 basic characteristics of mixtures:
Composition of the mixture is variable.
Components retain their original characteristics.
Components are easily separated by physical methods.
Mixtures can be classified as
Homogeneous
Heterogeneous
well-mixed mixtures,appear single-phased. - Particle size is too small to be seen by naked eyes
Homogeneous mixtures
unevenly-mixed mixtures- particles of one or more components can still be differentiated from the rest of the mixture by the unaided eye.- Two or more phases of matter can be observed.
Heterogeneous mixtures
Changes in Matter
MELTING
FREEZING
EVAPORATION
CONDENSATION
SUBLIMATION
- Solid to Liquid
Melting
Liquid to Solid
Freezing -
Liquid to Gas
Evaporation -
- Gas to Liquid
Condensation
- Solid to Gas
Sublimation
change in the form/ appearance of a substance, but its chemical composition remains the same.no new substance is formed,change is often reversible.
Physical Change
Changes in matter that results in formation of one or more substances. The new material has diff composition compared to original material
