Matter - Its Organization & Classification - Directions

Let's begin by looking at Chemistry - What is Chemistry?

Please be "Mindful" of the following:

Our first MANTRA:

When I say chemistry, and you say" _______ and _______" (ANS: physical & chemical as your response)

  • There are two very broad and important aspects of CHEMISTRY always to keep in mind.
  • These are, physical and chemical.
  • Our goal as "Citizens of Science" in our course is to focus with intention on the above mantra, so please write it down on one of your 3x5 flash cards.
  • Before we begin to answer any questions in chemistry, we need to ask where or not we are on the physical or chemical side of chemistry.

VERY IMPORTANT - Know our MANTRA (broad response) to the question, "What is Chemistry?"

  • ANSWER: physical or chemical
  • Asking this question first "What is chemistry?" is an extremely important 'incremental step' moving forward in this course.
  • Are the questions ask on homework, assessments, celebration addressing the physical side of chemistry or hte chemical side of chemistry.
  • Ask first, "What is chemistry?" before diving into your repsonse to any question in our course.

The content expressed on the following pages—after pressing 'Next'—do not presume to cover all aspects of matter analysis, identification and classification. Students are strongly encourage to be engaged in reading their lecture textbook as they prepare their study guide over matter analysis, identification and classification while being engaged in optional content—supplemental materials, tutorials, videos, powerpoints, PDFs & drill and practices—associated with these directions and presented in these linked resources
