EXAMPLE 3.1 Classifying Matter Classify each of the following as a pure substance or a mixture. If it is a pure substance, classify it as an element or a compound; if it is a mixture, classify it as homogeneous or heterogeneous. (a) a lead weight (b) seawater (c) distilled water (d) Italian salad dressing Solution: Begin by examining the alphabetical listing of pure elements inside the back cover of this text. If the substance appears in that table, it is a pure substance and an element. If it is not in the table but is a pure substance, then it is a compound. If the substance is not a pure substance, then it is a mixture. Use your knowledge about the mixture to determine whether it is homogeneous or heterogeneous. (a) Lead is listed in the table of elements. It is a pure substance and an element. (b) Seawater is composed of several substances, including salt and water; it is a mixture. It has a uniform composition, so it is a homogeneous mixture. (c) Distilled water is not listed in the table of elements, but it is a pure substance (water); therefore, it is a compound. (d) Italian salad dressing contains a number of substances and is therefore a mixture. It usually separates into at least two distinct regions with different composition and is therefore a heterogeneous mixture. Introductory Chemistry, Third Edition By Nivaldo J.

(a) the tendency of copper to turn green when exposed to air (b) the tendency of automobile paint to dull over time (c) the tendency of gasoline to evaporate quickly when spilled (d) the low mass (for a given volume) of aluminum relative to other metals Solution: (a) Copper turns green because it reacts with gases in air to form compounds; this is a chemical property. (b) Automobile paint dulls over time because it can fade (decompose) due to sunlight or it can react with oxygen in air. In either case, this is a chemical property. (c) Gasoline evaporates quickly because it has a low boiling point; this is a physical property. (d) Aluminum’s low mass (for a given volume) relative to other metals is due to its low density; this is a physical property.

(a) the rusting of iron (b) the evaporation of fingernail-polish remover (acetone) from the skin (c) the burning of coal (d) the fading of a carpet upon repeated exposure to sunlight Solution: (a) Iron rusts because it reacts with oxygen in air to form iron oxide; therefore, this is a chemical change. (b) When fingernail-polish remover (acetone) evaporates, it changes from liquid to gas, but it remains acetone; therefore, this is a physical change. (c) Coal burns because it reacts with oxygen in air to form carbon dioxide; this is a chemical change. (d) A carpet fades on repeated exposure to sunlight because the molecules that give the carpet its color are decomposed by sunlight; this is a chemical change.

EXAMPLE 3.4 Conservation of Mass A chemist forms 16.6 g of potassium iodide by combining 3.9 g of potassium with 12.7 g of iodine. Show that these results are consistent with the law of conservation of mass. Solution: The sum of the masses of the potassium and iodine is: 3.9 g + 12.7 g = 16.6 g The sum of the masses of potassium and iodine equals the mass of the product, potassium iodide.
