Q

How to create a paper chromatography investigation

A

Draw a pencil line on a piece of chromatography paper then place the solution on the line. Use a pencil to label, then pour solvent into a beaker place paper into beaker paper should be dipped but pencil line above. Then wait until solvent nearly reaches top of paper. Draw a line there.

16
Q

What is the R^f values

A

the ratio of how far the substance travelled in comparison to the solvent

17
Q

What is the importance of purity

A

Control of purity is important for accuracy thus effective research and the safety of consumer usage.

18
Q

What temperature does water boil or freeze

A

100 degrees to boil, 0 to freeze

19
Q

What happens if x is impure

A

it will boil or freeze over a range of temperatures

20
Q

What happens if a substance becomes impure

A

Impurities in a liquid can raise its boiling point and lower freezing point

21
Q

When to use filtration

A

Separating solids from liquids:

22
Q

How to do filtration

A

Pour your mixture down a filter funnel with filter paper, the ppt. should stay and solvent is in the conical flask.

23
Q

When to do crystallisation

A

Purifying solids: Crystallization is ideal for purifying solids from a solution, such as purifying sugar or salt from a solution.
separate different solubilities, su
Purifying liquids: Crystallization can purify liquids by removing impurities that are insoluble in the solution, such as removing impurities from a solution of sugar.

24
Q

How to do crystallisation

A

Heating the solution: Heat the solution to a temperature where the impurities are soluble, but the desired substance is not.
Cooling the solution: Allow the solution to cool slowly, allowing the desired substance to crystallize out of the solution.
Collecting the crystals: Collect the crystals by filtration or centrifugation, and wash them with a solvent to remove any remaining impurities.

25
Q

When to do distillation

A

Distillation is ideal for separating a mixture of liquids with significantly different boiling points.

26
Q

How to do distillation

A

Set up the distillation flask, condenser, and collection flask

Add the mixture to be distilled to the distillation flask.

Apply heat to the distillation flask using a Bunsen burner,

. Monitor the temperature using a thermometer.
Vaporize the mixture: Heat the mixture until it reaches its boiling point, producing vapor. The vapor rises into the condenser.

The condenser cools the vapor, causing it to condense back into a liquid. This liquid is the distilled product.

The distilled product is collected in the collection flask or receiver.

27
Q

When to do fractional distillation

A

When there are minor differences in the boiling point of the two liquids

28
Q

How to do fractional distillation

A

Same setup as distillation but use a fractionating collum so only the liquid with the lowest boiling point can be condensed into the other conical flask

29
Q

What is law of conservation of mass

A

the mass of any one element at the beginning of a reaction will equal the mass of that element at the end of the reaction.

30
Q

What is air

A

a mixture of compounds, elements, and molecules

31
Q

What is the liebig condensor

A

A condensing equipment where there are two valves the first one where cold water exits and the second one where cold water enters.
