Classifying Matter: Elements, Compounds, Mixtures (Chemistry)

⬣⬣⬣
In Chemistry Class, almost always we are talking about reactions involving PURE SUBSTANCES. But in the real world, we rarely stumble upon pure samples of anything! Almost everything we come in contact with is a mixture, rather than a pure element or compound.
Chemists classify matter according to how pure the sample is. This means you need to learn to distinguish between the following: pure substances (elements or compounds) and mixtures (homogeneous or heterogeneous). We’ve created a flowchart to make this kind of classification easier.

About our instructor:
Kimberly Hatch Harrison received degrees in Biology and English Literature from Caltech before working in pharmaceuticals research, developing drugs for autoimmune disorders. She continued her studies in Molecular Biology (focusing on Immunology and Neurobiology) at Princeton University, where she began teaching as a graduate student. Her success in teaching convinced her to leave the glamorous world of biology research and turn to teaching full-time, accepting a position at an exclusive prep school, where she taught biology and chemistry for eight years. Kimberly co-founded Socratica Studios.

I'm always impressed with how satisfying is to watch these vídeos.

[kirbymarchbarcena]

What matters is how great this video is in explaining what Matter is.

[leonilsonnunes]

I always stay waiting for another wonderful video like this one from Socratica Channel. 😍😊🤩

[PeterManger]

It's an amazingly distilled focused summary of where to start (or to baseline yourself - especially someone like me dabbling in a million topics at once) on your chemistry journey.

[keenanarrasyid]

Masterpiece this really helped me very much h\thank you u are so
sigm

[uyuoxyt]

as a 6th grader having a chimestry test tomorrow, this really helped me allot!! thanks

[MiaCatalig]

This got me















Why the heck do you have a gold bar!!!

[raunitsingh]

Great video, when are we getting more maths videos

[homeandkitchenproducts]

Why math videos are not coming socratica?

[deendion]

Where is the link to the flowchart? I'm not seeing it here or on your site.

In astrophysics, you can consider photons to be a gas and perform Bose-Einstein statistics on them
