Unit‐2 States of

Matter: It is something that occupies space possessing certain mass. Hence all the Substances present in this are .

Classification of matter on the basis of their physical state:

On the basis of physical state, matter can be classified as , , and .

Solid: Matter which possesses definite mass , and shape are called .In this state are held very close to each other.These particles have no freedom of movement. Ex: Wood, stone, copper etc. Liquid: Matter which possesses definite mass and volume but indefinite shape are called liquid. In this state particles are close to each other and they can move within their volume. Ex: ,Benzene,carbon tetrachloride, kerosene. Gas: Matter which possess definite mass but indefinite volume and shape are called . In gases particles are far apart as compared to solid and liquid. The particles can move freely from one point to another.Ex: Nitrogen, Oxygen, Carbon dioxide etc.

Plasma: It is a highly ionized gas, made up of almost equal number of positive and negative . It is formed only at a extremely high of the order of 50000C. It is described as the fourth state of a matter.Plasma is believed tobe the main constituent of stars including sun.

Note: The fifth is called Bose‐Einstein condensate (BEC). This state occur at the end of the temperature scale at a step above Kelvin.

Classification of matter on the basis of composition:

On the basis of the chemical composition matter can be classified as fallows.

1. Heterogeneous matter 2. Homogeneous matter

1) Heterogeneous matter: A substance is heterogeneous if it exhibits different properties at its different position. Different types of heterogeneous matter are a) b) c) heteromixture

Metal Non‐metal metalloid

a) Suspension: It is a heterogeneous mixture in which the solute particles do not dissolve but remain suspended throughout the bulk of the medium.These particles can be seen by the naked eye. The solute particles settle down when the suspension is left undisturbed. These can be separated from the mixture by the process of filtration.

Ex: dirt particles in water, soar .

b) Colloid: are the heterogeneous mixture of two components with the size of the is 1nm to 100nm(or 10 A0 to 1000A0).These particles of colloid are uniformly spread throughout the . Due to relatively smaller size of the particles as compared to the ,It appears to be homogeneous, but actually colloids are heterogeneous. These are possessing two phases.(Dispersed and medium)

c) Heteromixture: It is obtained by mixing two or more substance in any ratio. These are possessing the mixed properties of the combined substance.These can be separated by physical method.

Ex: A mixture of and common salt. 3

2) Homogeneous matter: A substance is a homogeneous matter if the smallest part of it exhibits the same chemical and physical properties. Ex: Air , Solution of sugar with water, an intimate mixture of two or more than two metals (alloys).

Homogeneous matter can be classified into two types.

a) Homogeneous mixtures b) Pure substances

a) Homogeneous mixture: A mixture of two components that appears in a single phase is called homogeneous mixtures. These are called as .

A homogeneous mixture of solute and are called solutions. These solutions are also called as true solutions or crystalloids

Ex:A homogeneous mixture of sugar and water gives true solutions.

b) Pure substance: These are made of only one type of particles such as or . Further these are classified as elements and compounds.

Element: Simple forms of matter which cannot be decomposed into further simple substances are called elements. 118 elements are discovered till today, out of which 92 are naturally occurring elements and remaining are artificially prepared elements.

Ex: Hydrogen, mercury, , etc.

Elements are further classified as metals, non‐metals and metalloids

Metal:The elements with the electro‐positive of losing one or more electrons readily to give positively charged cations are called metals.

M M++ e‐

Ex :Copper,Zinc,Iron

Non‐metal: The electronegative elements which have a tendency to gain one or more electrons are called non‐metals. After getting the electrons negative ions formed are called anions. A is a non‐metal and A‐is anion.

A + e‐A‐

Ex: Chlorine, Bromine, sulphur etc

Metalloids: Elements possessing properties of both metals and non‐metals are called metalloids.

Ex: Antimony, arsenic, Germinium etc.

Compounds: The substances made of two or more than two elements combined with each other in a definite ratio by mass are called compounds. These can be decomposed into its elements by chemical or electrochemical reactions.

Ex: 1. In water(H2O) number of hydrogen and oxygen atoms are in the ratio 2:1 or it contains hydrogen and oxygen combined with each other in the ratio of 1:8 by their mass. i.e. 2g of hydrogen combines with 16 g of oxygen .

2. Sulphuric acid (H2SO4 ):In this compound the ratio of number of atoms of H:S:O combined is 2:1:4. The ratio by mass of H:S:O is 1:16:32.In this compound 2 g of hydrogen 32 g of sulpher 64 grams of oxygen combine with each other to form 98 g of H2SO4.

Solution: A homogeneous mixtures of solute and solvent are called solutions. In a solution, a substance which is in a less quantity is solute and other which is in more quantity is solvent. In of sugar, water is solvent and sugar is solute.

Concentration of solution. The amount of a solute present in a unit volume of the solution is called of the solution. 5

Concentration of the solution can be expressed in terms such as percentage by mass or by volume, molarity,, normality, ,ppm.Out of these terms the most familiar terms to express the concentration of the solution are percentage by mass or volume, molarity and normality.

Percentage by mass: It is the mass of the solute present in 100 g of the solution.

Percentage by mass =

Percentage by volume: It is the mass of the solute present in 100 cm3of the solution.

Percentage by volume =

Problem: 50 g of glucose is dissolved in 400 g of water, then calculate % by mass of the solute.

Ans: Total mass of the solution = mass of glucose + mass of water

= 50 + 400 = 450 g

Percentage by mass =

= = 11.11

Hence % by mass of glucose in the solution is 11.11

Problem: 300 cm3 of solution contains 20 g of NaCl dissolved with water ,then calculate % by volume of the solution.

Ans:

Percentage by volume =

= = 6.67

Hence % by volume of NaCl in the solution is 6.67

Molarity: Molarity can be defined as the number of gram molecular mass of solute dissolved in one dm3 of the solution. It is denoted by M 6

Molarity = or

Molarity = Where m= mass of the solute M= Molecular mass of the solute V= volume of the solution Molarity of NaOH solution is 0.5 M means 0.5 mole ( or0.5 gram molecular mass )of NaOH is dissolved in one dm3 of the solution. Problem.: Calculate the molarity of the solution obtained by dissolving 6 g of oxalic acid in 200 cm3of solution.Mol.mass of oxalic acid is 126.

Solution. Given things m=6 g M= 126 V= 200cm3

Molarity =

= = 0.238M

Normality: Normality can be defined as the number of gram equivalent mass of solute dissolved in one dm3 of the solution. It is represented by N

Normality =

OR Normality = Where m= mass of the solute E= Equivalent mass of the solute V= volume of the solution

Normality of H2SO4 solution is 0.5 N, It means that 0.5 gram equivalent mass of H2SO4 is dissolved in one dm3 of the solution Problem: Calculate the normality of the solution containing 4 g of sodium hydroxide in 500 cm3 of the solution.(Equ.mass of NaOH is 40)

Normality =

= 0.2 N Hence the normality of NaOH solution is 0.2N
