ATOMS AROUND US If you want to have a language, you will need an alphabet. If you want to build proteins, you will need amino acids. Examples in chemistry are not any different. If you want to build molecules, you will need elements. Each element is a little bit different from the rest. Those elements are the alphabet to the language of molecules. Why are we talking about elements? This is the section on atoms. Let's stretch the idea a bit. If you read a book, you will read a lang ...

LOOKING FOR A GAS Gas is everywhere. There is something called the atmosphere. That's a big layer of gas that surrounds the Earth. Gases are random groups of atoms. In solids, atoms and molecules are compact and close together. Liquids have atoms a little more spread out. However, gases are really spread out and the atoms and molecules are full of energy. They are bouncing around constantly. Gases can fill a container of any size or shape. That is one of their physical characteristic ...

LIQUID BASICS The second state of matter we will discuss is a liquid. Solids are hard things you can hold. Gases are floating around you and in bubbles. What is a liquid? Water is a liquid. Your blood is a liquid. Liquids are an in-between state of matter. They can be found in between the solid and gas states. They don't have to be made up of the same compounds. If you have a variety of materials in a liquid, it is called a solution. One characteristic of a liquid is that it will fil ...

MIXTURE BASICS Mixtures are absolutely everywhere you look. Mixtures are the form for most things in nature. Rocks, air, or the ocean, they are just about anything you find. They are substances held together by physical forces, not chemical. That statement means the individual molecules enjoy being near each other, but their fundamental chemical structure does not change when they enter the mixture. When you see distilled water, it's a pure substance. That fact means that there are j ...

PLASMA BASICS Plasmas are a lot like gases, but the atoms are different because they are made up of free electrons and ions of the element. You don't find plasmas too often when you walk around. They aren't things that happen regularly on Earth. If you have ever heard of the Northern Lights or ball lightning, you might know that those are types of plasmas. It takes a very special environment to keep plasmas going. They are different and unique from the other states of matter. FINDING ...

SOLID BASICS So what is a solid? Solids are usually hard because their molecules have been packed together. The closer your molecules are, the harder you are. Solids also can hold their own shape. A rock will always look like a rock unless something happens to it. The same goes for a diamond. Even when you grind up a solid into a powder, you will see little tiny pieces of that solid under a microscope. Liquids will move and fill up any container. Solids like their shape. In the same ...

CHEMICAL REACTIONS Let's start with the idea of a reaction. In chemistry, a reaction happens when two or more molecules interact and something happens. That's it. What molecules are they? How do they interact? What happens? Those are all the possibilities in reactions. The possibilities are infinite. There are a few key points you should know about chemical reactions. KEY POINTS 1. A chemical change must occur. You start with one compound and turn it into another. That's an example ...

MathMol Home Page What is Matter GRADE States of Matter Resource Page for Middle and High School Properties describe matter. A block of wood, milk, and air all have properties. All the material on earth is in three states-solid, liquid, and gas. The "state" of the matter refers to the group of matter with the same properties. In other words, you group the objects together according to their properties. Solids The wood block is solid. A solid has a certain size and shap ...

_ Best experienced with either or Welcome to The Chemistry Consortium Chemistry is one of the subjects in science, and is very useful to our everyday life. The Chemistry Consortium concentrates on the topics about organic chemistry. Organic chemistry means the study of all compounds that contain carbon (C). It does NOT mean the study of living organisms, which was misunderstood by some beginners. Now you could select either the normal version or the framed version. W ...
