Recall:

Matter: takes up space, has mass

Fluid: liquid or gas, no fixed shape, can flow

Use of fluids

slurries: a mixture of a liquid and a solid in which the liquid is used to move the solid (ex. hosing doggy doo off the driveway

Fluids become solids

  • Many solids are prepared as fluids (ex. glass, cement)

  • Fluids can hold other materials acting as a binder (toothpaste, glitter glue)

Properties of fluids

  • density

  • buoyancy

  • viscosity

  • compressibility

  • concentration

2.0 The particle model of matter can explain the properties of mixtures and fluids.

Pure substances and mixtures

Pure substance: elements that consist of only 1 kind of atom (ex. oxygen)

Compounds: consist of two or more elements chemically bonded in specific ratios

Mixtures: consist of two or more pure substances, not chemically bonded, can be separated

Types of mixtures:

Homogenous mixture- 2 or more components appear as one (homo) this mixture is a solution (particles are evenly distributed)

Heterogenous mixture- this mixture is a mechanical mixture (different components are visible) ex. mixed veggies

Other types of mixtures:

suspension- when particles are suspended or hanging in a mixture they will settle out. (ex. muddy water) When the dirt particles were moving and hanging, it was suspended

colloid- a mixture so well mixed, that it would not separate (ex. jello)

Classifying matter

Concentration and solubility

Dissolving- when two or more substances’ particles are intermixed

A solution has two parts:

  • solute

  • solvent

Solute- the substance that is dissolved. For example, kool-aid in water. The juice crystal is the solute

Solvent- the substance that does the dissolving. For example, kool-aid in water. Water is the solvent

Soluble- a solute will dissolve in a solvent

Insoluble- a solute will NOT dissolve in a given solvent

Measuring concentration

Concentration- the actual amount of solute in the actual amount of solvent ex. a sugar solution was made with 5g of sugar and 100ml of water

C=M/V Where c is concentration, m is mass, and v is volume. Concentration can also be expressed as a percent or using a weight-volume ratio

Dilute solution- has little solute in large volumes of solvent'

Concentrated solution- a large amount of solute in smaller volumes of solvent

Saturated solution- a solution in which no more solute will dissolve

Unsaturated solution- a solution in which more solute can dissolve

Aqueous solution- a solution in which the solvent is water

The particle model of matter

  1. Everything is made up of particles

  2. The particles are in constant motion

  3. If you add energy, that particle motion will increase, if you remove energy, the particle motion will decrease

  4. there is space between the particles

The PMM explains mixing

Particles are different sizes and when two substances are mixed, the smaller particles fill the spaces between the larger particles. The particle model also states that particles are attracted to each other. However, sometimes particles are more attracted to themselves and they will not mix with another kind of particle

Factors affecting rates of dissolving

The 3 factors that affect the rate of dissolving are:

  1. Temperature. When the temperature is increased, the rate of dissolving increases

  2. Agitation. Agitating, or shaking will increase the rate of dissolving

  3. Surface area. Increasing surface area will increase the rate of dissolving. For example, crushing a compact small tablet into a loose powder will help the particles mix.

3.0 The particle model of matter can explain the properties of gases and liquids.

Viscosity- the internal friction of a substance’s particles. The more friction, the more viscous a substance is.

  • a more viscous fluid flows slowly, and a less viscous fluid flows quickly

  • Viscosity is affected by temperature. Increased temp= lower viscosity. Decreased temp= higher viscosity

    Calculating flow rates

    R= D/T Where r is flow rate, d is distance, and t is time

    ex. An oil slick flowed 10m downhill in 5 min, What’s the flow rate?

    r=d/t

    r=10m/5min

    r=2m/min

Density of a fluid

Density- the amount of matter in a given volume

Volume- the amount of space an object occupies LxWxH (or area of base x h) meters x meters x meteres= m3 or meters cubed

In liters of cubic units 1m= 1cm3 of water

Floating- when a less dense substance is in a more dense substance, it floats. (ex. oil on top of water)

Sinking- when a more dense substance is in a less dense substance it will sink (ex. a rock in the water)

D=M/V Where d is density, m is mass (g), and v is volume (ml for liquids and cm3 for solids)

Cheaters triangle

it works like this: cover the variable you are trying to solve for

D=M/V

V=M/D

M= (D) (V)

Density, temperature, and buoyancy

Density is a constant provided the temperature remains the same

Density and Concentration

The, more concentration there is, the more particles there are, which means it is dense

Buoyancy

Buoyancy- the tendency for an object to float

Buoyant force- the force in fluids that act against gravity

The larger upward buoyant force=smaller downward force of gravity= float

Smaller buoyant force= larger downward force of gravity= sink

N upward buoyant force (neutral) =N downward force of gravity= hover

Application of buoyancy: hot air balloons

A burner heats the air inside, and since hot air rises, the balloon will rise. To lower the hot air balloon, flaps are opened to cool the air inside, and since cool air sinks, the balloon will descend.

Plimsoll line

Plimsoll line- a line on the bow or stern of boats that determines how much cargo can be safely loaded depending on the waters’ temperature and concentration

Compressibility and Pressure

  • gases are most easily compressed

  • liquids compress very little

  • solids hardly, if at all, compress

Pressure- is a measure of force distributed over an area

P=F/A Where f is force (Newtons), A= area (meters)

The unit of pressure is Pascal (Pa)

Therefore P=N/M2 =Pa

Pascals law

In an ENCLOSED SYSTEM, pressure is transmitted equally in all directions

Hydraulic- closed fluid is a liquid

Pneumatic-enclosed fluid is a gas
