Chemistry 10

Chapter I
Matter and Change
Objective
• Define Chemistry
• Compare and contrast basic concepts
Matter and Element
• Chemistry- The study of matter
Matter - Anything that has mass and occupies space
- The materials of the universe
a tree a book air

• Element- the most basic units of matter, unable to be


broken down into smaller units through chemical means.
– Simple definition: the things found on the periodic table
True or false:
Substances which cannot be decomposed into simpler substances
by ordinary chemical means must be elements.
A. True B. False

Something that takes up space and has mass.


A. volume
B. matter
C. mass
D. density
