Understanding Matter and Substances

The document discusses several topics in science including matter, elements, compounds, density, states of matter, sound, and magnets. It defines matter as things that have mass and occupy space, and defines energy as things without mass that do not occupy space. It describes the three states of matter as solid, liquid, and gas. It also discusses the properties of elements and compounds that make up pure substances, and how density, melting point, and boiling point can be used to examine the purity of a substance. The document also summarizes key topics about sound production, the three types of sound instruments, and how frequency can be changed in each type. Finally, it briefly introduces magnets and magnetic materials.

Matter.
 All the things can be divided into two types,
1. Matter
2. Energy
 The things with the mass and occupy space is called matter.
Example: Stone
Water

 The things without mass and do not occupied space are called energy.

Example: Light energy

Electrical energy

 Existences of matter as collection of particles with spaces among them are called discon-
tinuous nature of matter.
 Matters can be divided into 3 types based on their physical state.
1. Solid
2. Liquid
3. Gas
Note: an accepted theory about nature of matter was put by Greek philosopher Dem-
ocritus {460-370} but later Aristotle said that matter is not made up of particles and his
concept was decline.

Note: Matters are made up of particles and spaces are found between the particles.

 Decreasing the volume and increasing the pressure are called compression.

Pure substances Non pure substances/Mixers

Elements Compounds

Heterogeneous mixers

Homogeneous mixers
 The substances containing only one component with definite properties are called
pure substances.
 Pure substances can be divided into two types.
1. Elements
2. Components
 The pure substance with definite properties which cannot be further divided into
other substances with different properties by physical or chemical methods are called
Elements.
 Examples for elements.
1. Iron
2. Sulphur
3. Oxygen
4. Mercury
5. Gold
6. Lead
7. Chromium
8. Aluminum
9. Carbon

 Homogeneous pure substances formed by the combination of two or more elements
in a fixed ratio are called compounds
 Example for compounds,
1. Iron sulphite
2. Carbon dioxide(CO2)
3. Copper sulphite
4. Water (H2O)
5. Sodium chloride
By: Jana (Student of Sri Rama Krishna College)

6. Glucose
7. Sodium hydroxide
8. Calcium carbonate
 Following chart shows the several elements found in compounds.
1. Copper Sulphite = Copper+Sulphur+Oxygen
2. Sodium Chloride =Sodium+ Chlorine
3. Sodium hydroxide =Sodium+ Hydrogen+ Oxygen
4. Calcium carbonate=Calcium+Carbon+Oxygen
5. Carbon dioxide=Carbon+ Oxygen
6. Water=Hydrogen+ Oxygen
Note: Pure substances with definite properties which cannot be further divided into an-
other substances by physical or chemical method, is known as Elements.
Give some physical properties of a matter which can be examining the purity.

1. Density
2. Boiling point
3. Melting point
Note: Most of the non-metal cannot conduct electricity while the graphite is a non-metal
that can conduct electricity, because graphite is a form of carbon.

Density

 The mass of a unit volume of a substance is known as density.

Mass
Density =

Volume

Note: Mercury is higher density liquid metal.

By: Jana (Student of Sri Rama Krishna College)


Science…
 The density of pure substances is always constant.
 Density measured by using hydrometer.
1. Gold = 19,300kg m-3
2. Mercury = 13,600kg m-3
3. Lead = 11,300kg m-3
4. Copper = 8,900kg m-3
5. Iron = 7,700kg m-3
6. Aluminium = 2,700kg m-3
7. Water = 1,000kg m-3
Melting point
 The fixed temperature at which solid turns into liquid is known as melting point.
 The pure substances have a constant melting point.
1. Ice = 0oC
2. Sulphur = 132oC
3. Lead = 317oC
4. Aluminium = 660oC
5. Copper = 1,083oC
6. Iron = 1,539oC
Boiling point
 The fixed temperature at which liquid turns into gaseous state is known as boiling
point.

1. Ethyl alcohol = 770oC


2. Water = 100oC
3. Sulphur = 444oC
4. Lead = 1,744oC
5. Iron = 2,900oC

 Elements can divided into 02 types as,


1. Metals
2. Non metals
 Give some physical properties of metals.
1. Good heat conductors
2. Good electrical conductors
3. Having lustre property
4. Having sonority
5. Having malleability
By: Jana (Student of Sri Rama Krishna College)

6. Having ductility
 Give some physical properties of non-metals.
1. Poor heat conductors
2. Poor electrical conductors
3. Not having lustre property
4. Having brittleness

Sound

 The things that can produce sound are called the sources of sound.
 Sources of sound can be divided into 03 types.
1. Membrane instruments
2. String instruments
3. Air instruments
 The sound is produced by the vibration of particles.
 Sound can be divided into 02 types.
1. Natural sound
2. Artificial sound
 Examples of natural sounds
1. Sound of waterfall
2. Sound of birds
3. Sound of animals
4. Sound of air
5. Sound of sea waves

By: Jana (Student of Sri Rama Krishna College)

6. Sound of thunder
 Examples of artificial sounds
1. Sound of vehicles
2. Sound of machines
3. Sound of musical instruments
 Organisms can produce sound in different methods
1. Humming of bees – by the fast motion of their wings
2. Sound of grass hoppers – by the rubbing of bristle on their legs
3. Sound of human – by the vibration of vocal cord
Frequency of vibration
 The number of vibrations of an object with in the one second or unit time is called
the frequency of sound.
 The SI unit used to measure the frequency is hurtz (Hz).

By: Jana (Student of Sri Rama Krishna College)

Membrane instruments

 The instruments which can produce sound by vibration of membrane are called
membrane instruments.
 The frequency of sound from membrane instruments can be changed by tightening
or loosening their membrane.
 High frequency can be produced by stretching (tightening) the membrane.
Air instruments
 The instruments which can produce sound by vibrating the air column are called air
instruments.
 Frequency of air instruments can be changed by changing the length of air column.
 Length of air column frequency

String instruments
 The instruments which can produce sound by vibrating strings are called string in-
struments.
 The frequency of string instruments can be changed by changing the thingness,
length, tight/loose of strings.
 To produce high frequency sound thin and short, tight of string should be used.
