Chemistry 1 states of matter and purifying substances Flashcards
What is a molecule
2 or more atoms that are chemically bonded
What is a compound
2 or more different elements chemically bonded
What is a mixture
Two or more substances which are not chemically combined
What is filtration
Is used to separate insolvable solid from liquid
What is the process
Pour mixture through filter paper into conical flask
Liquid goes through pores of paper
Solid remains
What is crystallisation
Is used to separate a solvable solid from a liquid
What is the process
Heat up the solution let it dissolve
Asfter a couple days the solvable solid will be left to form crystals
What is distillation
Heat Evaporate liquid by vapour In a flask
The vapour will then run through into condenser
Combes sorry is cold as cool water around it
The liquid is then created
Leaving the crystals behind
Used to produce drinking water
What is fractional distillation
Is used to separate a mixture of liquids
What is process
The liquids must have different boiling points
The flask is atttched to fractional column contains glass beads
then the same asimple distillation
Start by heating mixture however will evaporate a diff boiling points and diff times
They then condense t
This reappears until they are all condensed
