Neutrons
Neutral (no charge) - 1 mass unit
Protons
+1 charge - 1 mass unit
Electron
-1 charge - no mass
Element
Made up of any 1 type of atom
Compound
More than 1 type of element, chemically combined together
Mixture
More than 1 type of element, not chemically joined
Molecule
A small groups of atoms, you can have a molecule of an element : O2 molecule of a compound - H2O
Souluble
Something that can be dissolved
Insoluble
Something that cannot dissolve
Distillation
A technique used to separate a solvent and a solution
Solute
A substance that dissolves in another substance
Solvent
A substance that dissolves a solute
Solution
Mixture of the solvent and the solute
Pure
1 element or 1 compound
Chromatography
Used to separate mixtures of substances into their components
Solvent front
The furthest the solvent ( the liquid that separates the inks ) can reach
What happens during chromatography?
The solvent soaks up the paper and travels to the ink dots and the ink spreads out, separating the components of the substance
Rf value
Distance travelled by substance
