Chemistry and Matter Review What is Matter? Matter- anything that has mass and takes up space. Everything in the world is made of matter. What is Matter? • Made of elements (atoms) and compounds/ (molecules). CO2 Physical vs Chemical Change • Physical change- Going from solid to liquid or liquid to gas. Or one solid state to another. Physical vs Chemical Change • Chemical change- an change in the arrangement of the atoms where a new substance is made. O C Carbon O O Oxygen C Carbon Dioxide O Law of Conservation of Matter • Matter is never created or destroyed. - atoms can be rearranged into different compounds and substances, but we can not create or destroy new atoms. Energy • Energy is the capacity to do work or transfer heat. Energy 2 Types of Energy 1. Kinetic Energy- Moving energy – Moving people, wind, water, air – Moving electrons = electricity – HEAT! Warming molecules are moving faster 2. Potential Energy – Stored energy – Chemical energy stored in gasoline – A roller costar at the top of a hill – A bouncy ball in your hand Energy • First law of thermodynamics: Energy can not be created or destroyed. – Energy input = Energy output – Convert energy from one form to the other – Energy is often lost in the form of heat Energy • Second law of thermodynamics- When energy changes from one form to another, we always end up with lower quality, less usable energy. Examples: Only 6% of the energy available in gasoline actually moves the car, the rest is lost. Only 5% of electrical energy is used for light the other 95% is lost as low quality heat.
