CHEMISTRY Pre-AP Unit I: Matter and Change Chapter 3 |
Goal: the student will gain an understanding of the classification of matter based on knowledge of chemical and physical properties of matter.
Objectives: The student should be able to:
1. Describe and distinguish heterogeneous and homogeneous materials, substances, mixtures, and solutions.
2. Describe and give examples of elements and compounds.
3. Classify matter as an element, compound, or mixture.
4. Distinguish between elements, compounds, and mixtures in terms of their composition.
5. Identify properties of metals, nonmetals and metalloids.
6. Identify characteristics of chemical and physical changes.
7. Classify changes in matter as chemical or physical.
8. Distinguish among extensive, intensive, physical and chemical properties.
9. Differentiate among the physical states of matter.
10. Name and distinguish between the parts of a solution.
11. Compare and contrast the properties of' solutions, suspensions and colloids.
12. Describe properties of colloids and explain how these properties depend upon particle size.
13. Recognize upon what property methods such as distillation, filtration, centrifugation, chromatography, and electrophoresis are based.
14. State the law of conservation of mass and apply it to situations involving physical or chemical change.
15. Explain how compounds obey the laws of definite and multiple proportions.
