Matter and Energy

Are matter & energy related

Matter is any particle with mass and volume
Energy is simply matter that is moving
0 Kelvin is defined as the temperature when
matter does not moving
So temperature is related to moving mass
Therefore: temperature and mass are related to
energy
Thats why any chemistry or physics equation
with energy must relate mass and temperature.

Around you
Everything you can see,
touch, smell or taste in
your room is made of
matter.

What Is Matter?
Matter is anything with
mass.
Typically, we think of tiny
little pieces of mass as
atoms and molecules
because those 117 elements
behave Newtonian. There
are over 200 smaller
particles that behave
Quantunian.

Energy: its just Mass and Velocity

Electrical
Kinetic energy associated with the flow of electrical
charge.

Heat or Thermal Energy

Kinetic energy associated with molecular motion.

Light or Radiant Energy

Kinetic energy associated with energy transitions in an
atom.

Nuclear
Potential energy in the nucleus of atoms.

Chemical
Potential energy in the attachment of atoms or because of
5
their position.

Atoms and Molecules

Atoms are the tiny particles
that make up all matter.
In most substances, the
atoms are joined together in
units called molecules.
The atoms are joined in
specific geometric
arrangements.
6

Any matter can exist in one

of 3 States
Solid
Liquid
Gas

Structure Determines Properties

The atoms or molecules have different
structures in solids, liquids, and gases
leading to different properties.

Solids
The particles in a solid are packed
close together and are fixed in
position.
Although they may vibrate.

The close packing of the particles

results in solids being
incompressible.
The inability of the particles to
move around results in solids
retaining their shape and volume
when placed in a new container
and prevents the particles from
flowing.

Solids, Continued
Some solids have their particles
arranged in an orderly geometric
patternwe call these crystalline
solids.
Salt and diamonds.

Other solids have particles that do

not show a regular geometric
pattern over a long rangewe call
these amorphous solids.
Plastic and glass.
10

Liquids
The particles in a liquid are closely packed,
but they have some ability to move around.
The close packing results in liquids being
incompressible.
The ability of the particles to move allows
liquids to take the shape of their container
and to flow. However, they dont have
enough freedom to escape and expand to fill
the container.
11

Gases
In the gas state, the particles have complete
freedom from each other.
The particles are constantly flying around,
bumping into each other and the container.
In the gas state, there is a lot of empty space
between the particles.
On average.
12

Gases, Continued
Because there is a lot of empty
space, the particles can be
squeezed closer together.
Therefore, gases are
compressible.
Because the particles are not
held in close contact and are
moving freely, gases expand to
fill and take the shape of their
container, and will flow.

Matter has Properties

Physical Properties are the characteristics of matter
that can be changed without changing its
composition.
Characteristics that are directly observable.

Chemical Properties are the characteristics that

determine how the composition of matter changes as
a result of contact with other matter or the influence
of energy.
Characteristics that describe the behavior of matter.

Iron is a silvery solid at room temperature with a
metallic taste and smooth texture.
Iron melts at 1538 C and boils at 4428 C.
Irons density is 7.87 g/cm3.
Iron can be magnetized.
Iron conducts electricity, but not as well as most other
common metals.
Irons ductility and thermal conductivity are about
average for a metal.
It requires 0.45 J of heat energy to raise the temperature
of one gram of iron by 1C.

Some Chemical Properties of Iron

Iron is easily oxidized in
moist air to form rust.
When iron is added to
hydrochloric acid, it produces
a solution of ferric chloride
and hydrogen gas.
Iron is more reactive than
silver, but less reactive than
magnesium.
22

Quiz: is it a Physical or Chemical

Property
Salt is a white, granular solid = physical.
Salt melts at 801 C = physical.
Salt is stable at room temperature, it does not decompose
= chemical.
36 g of salt will dissolve in 100 g of water = physical.
When a clear, colorless solution of silver nitrate is added
to a salt solution, a white solid forms = chemical.

23

Matter has Properties, Matter can

also go through Changes
Changes that alter the state or appearance of the
matter without altering the composition are
called physical changes.
Changes that alter the composition of the matter
are called chemical changes.
During the chemical change, the atoms that are
present rearrange into new molecules, but all of the
original atoms are still present.
24

Is it a Physical or Chemical Change?

A physical change results in a different form of
the same substance.
The kinds of molecules dont change.

A chemical change results in one or more

completely new substances.
Also called chemical reactions.
The new substances have different molecules than the
original substances.
You will observe different physical properties because
the new substances have their own physical properties.
25

Phase Changes Are

Physical Changes

Boiling = liquid to gas.

Melting = solid to liquid.
Subliming = solid to gas.
Freezing = liquid to solid.
Condensing = gas to liquid.
Deposition = gas to solid.
State changes require heating or cooling the substance.
Evaporation is not a simple phase change, it is a solution
process.
26

Quiz: is it a Physical or Chemical change

Evaporation of rubbing alcohol = physical.

Sugar turning black when heated = chemical.

Law of Conservation of Mass

Antoine Lavoisier
Matter is neither created nor destroyed in a
chemical reaction.
The total amount of matter present before a
chemical reaction is always the same as the total
amount after.
butane + oxygen carbon dioxide + water
58 grams + 208 grams 176 grams

266 grams

+ 90 grams

266 grams
32

Law of Conservation of Energy

Energy can neither be created nor destroyed.
The total amount of energy in the universe is
constant. There is no process that can increase
or decrease that amount.
Note: neither Mass nor Energy are ever
destroyed

33

Energy
The Fundamental Principle of the Universe is
Energy
From the Greeks to Newton to Quantum
Mechanics Energy is known as the capacity to do
work and is simply calculated by knowing the
mass and velocity of a particle.
The harder you swing an ax the faster you can fall
a tree.
Guess what happens when you walk into a wall
.005 mph or 500 mph

Energy: its just Mass and Velocity

Electrical
Kinetic energy associated with the flow of electrical
charge.

Heat or Thermal Energy

To get Energy (electrical,

thermal, light, nuclear, chemical)
You take slow moving particles and make them
move faster
As slow moving water
falls, gravity pulls it
faster. The water falls on
top of a turbine, which
moves a coil in a magnet
to generate electricity.

37

To get Energy (electrical,

thermal, light, nuclear, chemical)
You take slow moving particles and make them
move faster
Binding energy is simply the
amount of energy (and mass)
released, when free nucleons
join to form a nucleus; a
gluon is released or
absorbed
Einstein's mass-energy
equivalence formula E = mc
can be used to compute the
binding energy
38

Kinds of Energy
Kinetic and Potential
Potential energy is energy that is
stored; slow moving
Water flows because gravity pulls it
downstream.
However, the dam wont allow it to
move, so it has to store that energy.

Kinetic energy is energy of motion,

or energy that is being transferred
from one object to another; fast
moving.

When the water flows over the dam,

some of its potential energy is converted
to kinetic energy of motion.
39

Theres No Such Thing as a

Free Ride
When atoms contact each other, frictions is
produced. You will often notice friction as
sound or heat. So instead of useful energy,
anti-energy friction slows your car down.

Chemical Potential Energy

The amount of energy stored in a material is its
chemical potential energy.
The stored energy arises mainly from
the attachments between atoms in the molecules
the attractive forces between molecules.

45

Exothermic Processes
When a change results in the release of energy it is
called an exothermic process.
An exothermic chemical reaction occurs when the
reactants have more chemical potential energy
than the products.
The excess energy is released into the surrounding
materials, adding energy to them.
Often the surrounding materials get hotter from the
energy released by the reaction.

Endothermic Processes
When a change requires the absorption of energy
it is called an endothermic process.
An endothermic chemical reaction occurs when
the products have more chemical potential energy
than the reactants.
The required energy is absorbed from the
surrounding materials, taking energy from them.
Often the surrounding materials get colder due to the
energy being removed by the reaction.

The Kelvin Temperature Scale

Both the Celsius and Fahrenheit scales have
negative numbers.
Yet, real physical things are always positive amounts!

The Kelvin scale is an absolute scale, meaning it

measures the actual temperature of an object.
0 K is called absolute zero, all molecular motion
stops.
0 K = -273 C = -459 F.
Absolute zero is a theoretical value obtained by
following patterns mathematically.
52

Kelvin vs. Celsius

The size of a degree on the Kelvin scale is the
same as on the Celsius scale.
Although technically, we dont call the divisions on the
Kelvin scale degrees; we call them kelvins!
That makes 1 K 1.8 times larger than 1 F.

The 0 standard on the Kelvin scale is a much lower

temperature than on the Celsius scale.
When converting between kelvins and C, remember
that the kelvin temperature is always the larger
number and always positive!

Heat Capacity
Heat capacity is the amount of heat a substance
must absorb to raise its temperature by 1 C.
cal/C or J/C.
Metals have low heat capacities; insulators have
high heat capacities.
Specific heat = heat capacity of 1 gram of the
substance.
cal/gC or J/gC.
Waters specific heat = 4.184 J/gC for liquid.
Or 1.000 cal/gC.
It is less for ice and steam.

59

Specific Heat Capacity

Specific heat is the amount of energy required to raise
the temperature of one gram of a substance by 1 C.
The larger a materials specific heat is, the more
energy it takes to raise its temperature a given amount.
Like density, specific heat is a property of the type of
matter.
It doesnt matter how much material you have.
It can be used to identify the type of matter.

Waters high specific heat is the reason it is such a

good cooling agent.
It absorbs a lot of heat for a relatively small mass.

Heat Gain or Loss by an Object

The amount of heat energy gained or lost by an
object depends on 3 factors: how much material
there is, what the material is, and how much the
temperature changed.
Amount of Heat = Mass x Heat Capacity x Temperature Change

q = m x C x DT
