properties and changes of properties in matter

The classification of matter into three different states, namely solid, liquid and gaseous state is termed as the physical classification of matter. Most properties of solid, liquid and gases that can be observed with our sense organs are called as 'macroscopic' ..

Separation of the Constituents of Mixtures The separation of the various constituents of different mixtures depends on the properties of the constituents. Some of these properties are size, density, magnetic nature of particles, solubility, miscibility, differences in boilin..

Matter exists in several phases. If we look at all objects around us, we perceive that some materials have a definite shape and occupy a definite amount of space or volume. We call these materials solids and we can name many objects that are solids. We say that solids have a definite shap..

Is Matter Around us Pure - Impure Substances - Mixtures Impure substances are commonly called mixtures. A mixture is a material containing two or more elements or compounds that are in close contact and are mixed in any proportion. The constituents of mixtures exhibit their individual ..

The suggestion that matter may have wave like properties was first put forwarded in 1924-1925 by Louis De Broglie. He argued that if light, which consists of waves according to classical picture, can sometimes behave like particles, then it should be possible for matt..

Summary - All material is made from small moving particles called atoms. Materials can be solid, liquid or gaseous, depending upon the arrangement and freedom of movement of these particles. Diffusion is the movement of particles from a place of high concentration to a place of lower concentration ..

A physical change is one in which the shape, size, appearance or state, of a substance may alter, but its chemical composition remains same. No new substance is formed. It is usually a change, which is reversible. By reversing the process, the original substance can be obtained...

Is Matter Around us Pure - Types of Solutions Solution is defined as a homogeneous mixture of two or more chemical substances. The state of matter of a solution may be solid, liquid or gas. For example: common salt in water (liquid solution), air (gaseous solution), alloys (soli..

Introduction - We have learnt that a force changes or tends to change the state of rest, speed or direction of motion of an object, i.e., the force produces an acceleration. In this chapter, we are going to identify one of the forces which produces acceleration in all objects on..
