Class 9 Science: Is Matter Around Us Pure?

1. Pure Substances and Mixtures:

- A pure substance is made up of only one type of particles.

- A mixture is a combination of two or more substances which are not chemically bonded.

2. Types of Mixtures:

- Homogeneous Mixtures: Uniform in composition (e.g., salt dissolved in water).

- Heterogeneous Mixtures: Non-uniform in composition (e.g., sand and water).

3. Methods of Separation:

- **Filtration**: Used to separate solid particles from liquids.

- **Distillation**: Used to separate components of a liquid mixture based on differences in boiling

points.

- **Chromatography**: Used to separate components of a mixture based on their movement

through a medium.

4. Solutions:

- A solution is a homogeneous mixture of solute (dissolved substance) and solvent (substance that

dissolves).

- Examples: Salt water, sugar solution.

5. Concentration of Solutions:

- The amount of solute dissolved in a given quantity of solvent is called concentration.

- It can be expressed as mass/volume or in percentage.


6. Colloids and Suspensions:

- Colloids: Mixtures with particles that are not visible to the naked eye and do not settle down (e.g.,

milk, fog).

- Suspensions: Mixtures where solid particles settle down after some time (e.g., muddy water).

7. Physical and Chemical Changes:

- Physical Change: Change in the physical properties of a substance without changing its chemical

composition (e.g., melting, boiling).

- Chemical Change: A change in which a new substance is formed (e.g., rusting of iron).

8. Methods of Purification:

- **Sublimation**: A process in which a solid changes directly into gas (e.g., iodine crystals).

- **Crystallization**: A method of forming pure crystals from a saturated solution.
