mixtures Flashcards
a pure substance of only one kind of atom
element
two or more substances physically mixed
mixture
two or more elements chemically combined
compound
to separate magnetic materials from non magnetic materials. what method of separating mixtures is this
magnetic attraction
used to separate insoluble solid from a solid liquid mixture
filtration
Used to separate a dissolved solid from a solid-liquid mixture
evaporation
Used to separate a pure liquid from a solid-liquid or liquid-liquid mixture
Distillation
Used to separate more than two liquids in a mixture of miscible liquids
Fractional Distillation
Used to separate mixtures of pigments found in inks
chromatography
stationary phase in chromatography
filter paper
mobile phase in chromatography
water
is used to identify the contents of a mixture or to test the purity of a liquid
paper chromatography
to separate larger solids from smaller ones
sifting
pouring off a less dense top liquid layer
decanting
Rf formula
distance travelled by spot / total distance of solvent
Process of chromatography
take a chromatogram paper
draw a base line with pencil
place spots by the help of a dropper
dry the chromatogram paper
place chromatogram paper in a beaker containing the solvent
calculate Rf value and observe solubility
if the spot travelled more so it means
the solubility is more
if the spot travelled less so it means
the solubility is less

evaporation
Which other method id used to separate a solid from a solution
crystallisation
Which method id used to separate a solvent from a liquid
simple distillation
Which method id used to separate liquids from each other
fractional distillation
Which method id used to separate different substances from a solution
chromatography
Difference between compounds and mixture
compounds are formed with the combination of two or more elements and their chemically joined while mixtures are formed when compounds or elements are mixed together and their physically joined.
Components of compounds cannot be separated physically while components of mixtures can be separated physically.
compounds are always homogeneous mixtures by nature while mixtures can be homogenous or heterogeneous by nature.
compounds show their own characteristics while mixtures don’t.
