Q

HEAT ENERGY

A

in order for substance to change state(from a solid to a liquid or liquid to gas) it needs heat energy
as a substance changes state is uses latent heat. there is no change to temperature but the state of material changes

Q

LATENT HEAT

A

As a substance changes state,it uses latent heat.There is no change to temperature,but the state of the materiel changes.

Q

DURING A CHEMICAL REACTION

A

the atoms rearrange to form a new substance.might be seen by color change,temperature change, light being emitted or bubbles

17
Q

LAW OF CONSERVATION MASS

A

matter can be changed from one form to another.during physical and chemical changes there is no overall change in mass

18
Q

MIXTURE

A

a mixture consists of two or more substances mingles together but not chemically combined eg.sand and water
there are four methods of separating mixtures
filtration
evaporation
distillation
chromatography

19
Q

FILTRATION

A

used to separate small insoluble solids (do not dissolve in a liquid) for a liquid by using filter paper and funnel to trap the solids eg.sand and water

20
Q

EVAPORATION

A

used to separate soluble solids (dissolve in liquids) from a solution by evaporating off the liquid to leave the solids eg.salt water

21
Q

DISTILLATION

A

Used to separate two liquids with
different boiling points such as
alcohol (boils at 78o
) and water
(boils at 100 o
). Also used to
separate a soluble solid from a
liquid (e.g. seawater) to give a pure
sample of each.

22
Q

CHROMATOGRAPHY

A

Used to separate a mixture of
dissolved substances in a
solution. E.g. the different
colours in a black marker.

23
Q

insoluble

A

does not dissolve in a liquid

24
Q

soluble

A

dissolves in a liquid

25
Q

residue

A

the soil left in the filter paper after filtration

26
Q

filtrate

A

the clean water that comes after filtration

27
Q

evaporation

A

used to separate a soluble solid from a liquid e.g. salt and water

28
Q

solvent

A

the liquid that a solid is dissolved into

29
Q

solute

A

the solid that is left behind after evaporation

30
Q

distillation

A

method of separation used to separate a soluble solid and its solvent, or two miscible liquids with different boiling points

31
Q

miscible

A

Liquids that mix together e.g. alcohol and water

32
Q

liebig condenser

A

piece of equipment used in
distillation in which cool water flows to condense steam to water

33
Q

distillate

A

clean water at the end of distillation

34
Q

chromatography

A

used to separate mixtures of substances that are in a solution e.g. dyes in ink

35
Q

chromatogram

A

chromatography paper with separated ink

36
Q

reactant

A

chemicals that react together in a chemical reaction

37
Q

products

A

the substances formed after a chemical reaction
