formation of solid particles.

Answer 25

Precipitation

Question 26

The solid particles in precipitation

Answer 26

Precipitate

Question 27

In the laboratory, dilute solutions are
more often used than concentrated solutions.

is prepared from a concentrated
solution by mixing an aliquot portion of the
concentrated solution with distilled water.

Answer 27

Dilution

Question 28

is prepared from a concentrated
solution by mixing an aliquot portion of the
concentrated solution with distilled water.

Answer 28

Dilution water

Question 29

Dilute solution

Question 30

Separation Techniques

Answer 30

Sedimentation
Decantation
Filtration
Centrifugation
Evaporation
Distillation

Question 31

the process of allowing heavy
particles to settle out of the suspension under
the influence of gravity.

Answer 31

Sedimentation

Question 32

The solid portion that is
collected at the bottom of the container

Answer 32

Sediments

Question 33

the process of separation of
liquid from solid and other immiscible
(non-mixing) liquids by slowly pouring the liquid
layer at the top of the mixture into another
container. This technique is applicable in
separating heterogeneous mixtures.

Answer 33

Decantation

Question 34

separation technique used to
separate a solid substance such as a precipitate
from the liquid in an insoluble solid-liquid
mixture.

Answer 34

Filtration

Question 35

a laboratory
technique that can be used to separate mixtures
that cannot be separated by filtration.

separation technique based
on the differences of densities of particles in the
mixture by means of centrifugal force.

Answer 35

Centrifugation

Question 36

separation
technique that can be used to separate soluble
solids in water. The technique is based on the
difference in volatility of the solute and the
solvent in the mixture. When a substance is
volatile, it evaporates easily. Mixtures such as a
salt solution can be separated into pure water
and salt by means of evaporation. Water
evaporates at a lower temperature as compared
to table salt (NaCl).

Answer 36

Evaporation

Question 37

the technique of
heating a liquid to create vapor which is
collected when cooled to separate from the
original solution.
is based on the
difference in boiling points or volatility of the
components in the mixture.
For example, in the
salt-water mixture, water is volatile while salt is
non-volatile. Heating will cause water in the salt
solution to boil while salt remains in the solution

Answer 37

Distillation
