Matter exists in various forms, including elements, compounds, and mixtures. Elements are pure substances composed of only one type of atom, while compounds are formed from chemical reactions between different elements, resulting in new substances with unique properties.
Types of Mixtures - Homogeneous and Heterogeneous Homogeneous : Solution (Less than 1nm) Heterogeneous : Colloid (1nm - 1000nm), Suspension (More than 1000nm)
Examples of Compounds - When magnesium (Mg) burns with oxygen (O), there is a lot of heat and light.This is a chemical reaction, we get a compound: Magnesium oxide (MgO) Examples of Mixtures - Mixtures of gases in the air.No chemical reaction.No new substance is formed.All elements keep their properties.
Chemical change - A change that is very hard to reverse.May reverse the change by heat or electricity.Example : Burning fossil fuel Physical change - Can be easily reversed.Does not change the properties of the substances.Example : Scrambled paper
A compounds is formed when 2 or more different elements combine together by a chemical reaction.Compound can be split to smaller substances.But elements is made up of 1 or more atoms of the same types.Element is a pure substances, it cannot be split up to something smaller.And A mixture is formed when 2 more substances are mixed together by a physical method such as stirring, shaking, dissolving.
Examples of Elements : Oxygen, Carbon
Elements Are classified to 3 groups: 1.Metals 2.Non-Metals 3.Metalloids
