Matter And Materials Flashcards
Mixtures where the substances are in distinguishable from each other
Homogenous mixture (solution)
What has to happen during distillation
The lower boiling point liquid evaporates, leaving the other higher boiling point liquid
Iron filings
Tiny, dull gray bits of a magnetic metal
Sulphur
Fine yellow powder that is non-magnetic
No uniform composition, one component doesn’t dissolve in the other
Heterogenous mixture
Anything that has mass and takes up space
Matter
What elements are magnetic
Iron, cobalt, nickel
Consists of one kind of atom with unique properties that they can’t be separated by physical or chemical means
Elements
Constant composition that consists of two or more chemically combined elements with differing properties that can be separated by chemical means
Compounds
Varying composition with two or more elements or compounds with the same properties as constituent elements that can be separated by physical means
Mixtures
What is chromatography
Seperating two or more dissolvable solids which are present in a solution in very small quantities, the liquid will move up and take the substance along with it, leaving all that is has in it
