Lesson
1 Pure Substance
What’s In
3
In your previous lesson, you learned that a solution is a homogeneous mixture.
It means that it has a uniform composition which makes the appearance uniform all
throughout.
This time you will describe the appearance and other properties of pure
substances. Is it homogeneous or heterogeneous? What are other properties of pure
substances?
What’s New
Activity No. 1
Let us proceed with the new lesson to be presented through a poem. You’ve got
what it takes to be a conqueror if you read carefully thi s poem and discover the
differences between substances and mixtures. The poem is entitled, “I am Substance, I
am Mixture.” (Note: This poem was composed exclusively for ADM module)
I am Substance, I am Mixture
By Wilfredo D. Bartolo, Jr.
Matter has two broad classes
Mixtures and substances
Each one with differences
Let us start with their appearances.
Homogeneous or heterogeneous
Telling a substance from a mixture can be used
When substances are all homogeneous
Mixtures can be homo or heterogeneous.
Next way to distinguish is through separating technique
Mixtures can be separated easy and quick
Through evaporation, distillation and filtration
But not substances due to chemical combination.
Substances and mixtures behave differently,
During boiling and melting most especially
Boiling point of substance is fixed while mixture is not
Substance melts completely but mixture does not
I am substance, I am mixture
Two worlds apart
Just always remember the differences they’ve got
To distinguish a substance or mixture from what is and what is not.

How are you feeling so far? Did you find the poem interesting and effective
learning resource? If your answer is a big yes, let us find out!
To find out if the poem really helped you to discover and understand some of the
important concepts of the lesson; you will be asked to answer the following questions
below.
Guide Questions:
1. What is a pure substance?
2. What are the properties of pure substances?
3. Tabulate your answers about pure substances.

NOTES TO REMEMBER: Pure Substances are one of the classes of matter. Substances
are homogeneous or with uniform composition and appearance are the same all
throughout. The temperature of a substance is fixed and sharp. During melting, a
substance melts completely/smoothly within a short time.

Chef Matt and his assistant observed two solid samples: Solid A and Solid B.
Both substances are white crystalline powder. They cannot determine which is a
substance and mixture just by looking at it. So, to distinguish which is which, they
heated the two samples using an improvised melting dish. Both the two samples were
heated at the same time and received an equal amount of heat. After a few minutes,
they had observed that Solid A melts completely within a short period of time; while
Solid B has portions that seem to be not melting.
