1.2: Classification of Matter - Chemistry LibreTexts
Matter can be classified according to physical and chemical properties. Matter is anything that occupies space and has mass. The three states of matter are solid, liquid, and gas.

Apply the law of conservation of matter; Classify matter as an element, compound, homogeneous mixture, or heterogeneous mixture with regard to its physical state and composition; Define and give examples of atoms and molecules
1.4: Classification and Properties of Matter
Aug 29, 2023 · Use physical and chemical properties, including phase, to describe matter. Distinguish between physical and chemical changes. Identify a sample of matter as an element, a compound, or a mixture (homogeneous/heterogeneous). Distinguish between organic and inorganic chemicals. Label all atoms within an organic or inorganic compound.
3.4: Classifying Matter According to Its Composition
Matter can be classified into two broad categories: pure substances and mixtures. A pure substance is a form of matter that has a constant composition and properties that are constant throughout the sample.

Solids, liquids, and gases are the three states of matter commonly found on earth (Figure 1). A solid is rigid and possesses a definite shape. A liquid flows and takes the shape of a container, except that it forms a flat or slightly curved upper surface when acted upon by gravity. A gas takes both the shape and volume of its container. Figure 1.

Figure 1.6 The three most common states or phases of matter are solid, liquid, and gas. A fourth state of matter, plasma, occurs naturally in the interiors of stars. A plasma is a gaseous state of matter that contains appreciable numbers of electrically charged particles (Figure 1.7).
Describing and Classifying Matter - Let's Talk Science
Classifying Matter. There are different ways to classify matter. One way is to classify it as a pure substance or a mixture. Pure Substances. A pure substance is the same throughout. It can’t be separated into other substances, or transformed into a new substance. The physical properties of a pure substance never change. Water is a pure ...

Matter is defined as anything that occupies space and has mass, and it is all around us. Solids and liquids are more obviously matter: We can see that they take up space, and their weight tells us that they have mass. Gases are also matter; if gases did not take up space, a balloon would stay collapsed rather than inflate when filled with gas.
