Chemistry 1.3 CLASSIFICATION OF MATTER
Matter can be divided into two main categories:
PURE SUBSTANCES and MIXTURES. Matter that
has uniform and unchanging composition is called a
p_______ s_______.
Different atoms from different elements combine in a
specific ratios to form a p _______ s_______.
An element is a p_______ s________ that is made up
of only one type of atom.
A compound is a p_______ s__________ that is
composed of different types of atoms.
Elements and compounds are p_______ s_______.
Any material with a definite chemical composition
can be called a p_______ s_______.
Any material having unique and defining properties is
called a p________ s_________.
Table salt (NaCl) is an example of a compound of
p_______ s_________.
Water (H2O) is an example of a compound of
p_______ s_________.
Sugar (sucrose C12H22O11) is an example of a
compound of p_______ s_________.
A MIXTURE is a combination of two or more
substances that are not chemically united and are not
in a specific ratio, one substance to the other. The
individual components of a m_______ retain their
identity.
A mixture can be classified as two types, a
HOMOGENEOUS m_______ and a
HETEROGENEOUS m_______.
HOMOGENEOUS mixtures have uniform
composition throughout the m_________.
A homogeneous mixture is also called a SOLUTION.
A mixture of two or more substances that can not
easily be distinguished from one another is called a
s_______.
Solids, liquids and gases can all create a s_________.
Putting milk and chocolate syrup into a blender and
turning it on will create a h__________
m__________ , also called a s___________.
Melting sugar into hot water will create a
h__________ m__________ , also called a
s___________.
Because the components of iron (Fe) and carbon (C)
cannot be easily distinguished, steel is a
h___________ m___________.
Because you cannot distinguish the tea from the water
in which it is dissolved, a cup of hot tea is a
h___________ m___________.
A HETEROGENEOUS mixture is one in which the
individual components do not blend smoothly
throughout. A mixture in which individual substances
remain distinct is called a h____________
m___________.
A mixture that has visibly different substances is said
to be h__________.
No matter how hard you shake or stir a beaker of
water with beach sand added to it, the sand never
dissolves in the water. Upon standing, the sand will
settle to the bottom of the beaker, illustrating that this
is a h__________ m_________.
A mixture made up of different substances that remain
physically separate is considered h__________.
Any combination of substances that does not have
uniform composition and properties is a h_________
m__________.
Iced tea is a h__________ m__________ because the
ice cubes are separate and distinct from the tea.
Because the different ingredients of trail mix are easy
to identify, trail mix is a h____________
m__________.

Matter that has uniform and unchanging composition
is called a p_______ s__________.
A combination of two or more substances that are not
chemically united and are not in a specific ratio, one
substance to the other is called a m___________.
A mixture that has uniform composition throughout is
called a h____________ m__________.
A mixture in which individual substances remain
distinct is called a h_____________ m____________.
