Residue
Is the soil or dirt left on the paper
Chromatography
Used to separate a mixture of dissolved substances E.G the different colours in a black marker
Matter
Anything that takes up space and has mass
Mass
A measure of the amount of matter in an object
States of matter
Three states that matter can exist in solid liquid and gas
Solid
atoms are close together, they vibrate to transfer energy. Cannot flow, fixed shape. e.g. wood, rock
Liquid
Atoms are less close that solid but still close . Particles can move around. Liquids can flow and change shape e.g water, milk
Gas
Particles are spread out. Gases can flow and change shape
Particles
Suggestions that everything is made up of small parts
Particles theory
Scientist believe that everything is made from small particles
Viscosity
The flow rate of a liquid. Water is less viscous than maple syrup
Diffusion
The spreading out of particles to fill the space they are in.
Mixture
Consists of two or more substances mingled together but not chemically combined
Filtration
The soil left in the filter paper after filtration
Insoluble
Does not dissolve in a liquid
