Q

steps of chomotography paper practical

A
  • chomotography paper with pencil lines on the bottom and put dotted lines of the pen we want to use
  • lower it into a solvent which makes it way up the paper and dissolves ink in the two coloured dots which are carried up

Q

why does chomotography paper practical work

Q

what happens in paper chomotography

A
  • each soluble substance in the mixture forms bonds with the two phases
  • substances that form stronger attractive forces with the stationary or mobile phase move different lengths

Q

what does a pure ink produce in paper chromatography

A

only one spot

19
Q

what does an impure ink produce in paper chromatography

A

multiple spots

20
Q

steps in simple distillation

A
  • solution is heated and the solvent boils
  • solvent va[our passes into the condenser
  • vapour cools and condenses back to the liquid state in a seperate beaker/flask
21
Q

steps in fractional distillation

A
  • the mixture is heated and hot vapour rises up the fractionating column
  • the liquid with the higher boiling point condenses when it hits the cools urface and drips back
  • the liquid with the lowest boiling point has it’s vapour reach the condenser first
22
Q

how does a condenser keep cool

A

it has two tubes keeping cold water running in and out

23
Q

describe the tempurature gradient in a fractionating column

A

hottest at the bottom, coldest at the top

24
Q

define molecule

A

two or more atoms, held together by chemical bonds, which can contain different elements

25
steps in crystallisation
- place the solution in an evaporating dish and slowly heat - once some of the solvent has evaporated and crystals start forming, stop heating it - leave it to cool - more crystals start to form, as solids are less soluble at colder tempuratures - filter them - dry them in an air oven or warm place
26
steps in evaporation
- heat solution in an evaporating dish - solvent starts evaporating and the remaining solution becomes more concentrated, forming crystals
27
con of evaporation
it may be quick and easy but some solids may decompose when heated (thermal decomposition)
28
steps in filtration
- use a filter paper and funnel - filter paper has small holes that allow the liquid to pass through, but not the solid
29
what is filtration used for
to seperate an insoluble salt from a liquid
30
what happens in sublimation
solid to gas
31
what happens in deposition
gas to solid
32
what happens during a state change
- energy is transferred to or from the particles - the arrangement of particles change - the movement of particles change
33
what is the order of different states in increasing energy stores
solid, liquid, gas
34
what is the order of different states in decreasing energy stores
gas, liquid, solid
35
true or false: mixtures have a more varied melting/boiling point than a single element, which is more sharp
true
36
what are the stages of making water potable
sedimentation, filtration, chlorination
37
define potable
safe to drink
38
what must potable water have
low levels of contaminating substabces and microbes
39
explain why tapn water is potable but not pure
it contains dissolved salts and chlorine which is more than one element
40
why is using distillation by boiling and condensing for sea water hard
it's expensive
41
what is sedimentation
large insoluble particles sink to the bottom of a tank
42
what is filtration
small insoluble particles are removed by filtering through beds of sand
43
what is chlorination
chlorine gas is bubbles from the water to kill microbes
