chemistry- is matter around us pure Flashcards
what can matter be classified according to?
matter can be classified according to pure and impure substances
what are the divisions of pure substances
elements and compounds
what is a impure substance
and impure substance is any substance that is made up of 2 or more pure substances
what are the types of mixtures?
the types of mixtures are homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures
what is a homogeneous mixture
a homogeneous mixture is a mixture that has a uniform composition
it is also known as a solution
what is the difference between pure and impure substances( mixtures)
draw table in exam
1. pure substance only consists of 1 type of substance while the impure substance or mixture has 2 or more impure substances
2. pure substances cannot be separated into its constituents through physical methods but mixtures can be separated by physical components
3. pure substances have their own definite properties while the mixtures display physical properties of its components
what are the divisions of heterogeneous mixtures
the divisions of heterogeneous substances are collides and suspensions
what are the properties of homogeneous mixtures
- has a uniform composition
- a beam of light will not be visible in the solution
- the solution is stable, it does not have any sediments
- particles are not visible to the naked eye
- particles cannot be separated through filtration
what is a heterogeneous mixture
a heterogeneous mixture is a substance which does not have a uniform composition
what are the properties of heterogeneous mixtures?
- they have a non uniform composition
- the particles are visible though naked eye
- the substance is unstable, sediments can be found
- a path of beam light will be visible in the mixture
- can be separated through filtration
what is a true solution?
a true solution is a homogeneous mixture with 2 or more substances
what are the properties of a true solution?
True solution is a homogeneous mixture.
➢The particles size is less than 1nm (cannot be seen
by the naked eye).
➢The solute particles cannot be separated by
filtration.
➢The solute particles do not settle down and the
solution is stable.
➢The particles do not scatter a beam of light passing
through it and the path of light is not visible in the solution
what is the difference between true solution and heterogeneous mixture
a true solution is a homogeneous mixture that is made up of 2 or more substances. it usually comes in the form of solvent and solute
however, a heterogeneous mixture has a non uniform composition
what are the properties of a true solution
`1. the size of the particles in a true solution are less than 1nm
2. cannot be separated though filtration
3.solution is stable (so sedimentation)
4. particles will not scatter a beam of light and a beam of light will not be present in the solution
what is a unsaturated solution
a solution is unsaturated if more if the same solute can dissolve in the solution
what is a saturated solution
a solution which cannot dissolve any more of the given solute in the solution at a given temperature
what is solubility
solubility is the amount of solute present in the solution at its saturated point. the solubility varies from one substance to another.
effect of temperature in solubility
as the temperature increases, the saturated point of the substance increases, until a certain point
