Matter
by Jacob Lucas
1. Pure Substances
1.1. Made of one type of particle
1.2. Example - iron found in a meteor is the same iron found in pots and pans
2. Metalloids
2.1. Have the properties of metals and non-metals
2.2. Semiconductors
2.3. Somewhat malleable and ductile
2.4. Example - silicon
3. Metals
3.1. Good conducters
3.2. Shiny
4. Non metals
4.1. Poor conductors
4.2. Dull
4.3. Brittle
4.4. Example - Bromine
5. Heterogeneous
5.1. All components visible
5.2. Example - Pizza
6. Homogeneous
6.1. All substances are unoticable
6.2. Evenly Mixed
6.3. Example - Peanut Butter
7. Homogeneous vs heterogeneous video
8. Mixtures
8.1. Not chemically combined
8.2. All components are visible
8.3. Example - Trail mix
9. Compounds
9.1. All components not visible
9.2. Chemically combined
9.3. Example - Salt
10. Elements
10.1. In simplist form
10.2. Pure substance
10.3. Cannot be separated into simpler substances
10.4. Example - Gold
11. Characteristic Properties
11.1. Properties that describe a substance
11.2. Example - Color and melting point
12. Picture of a mixture
