separating mixtures Flashcards
filtrate
solution that passes through filter paper during filtration
residue
solid left in filter paper after filtration
distillate
liquid which evaporates then condenses and emerges from condenser
simple distillation definition
solvent from solution
evaporation
solids from solution
e.g. salt from saltwater
fitration
insoluble solids from liquids
separating funnel
separating liquids that don’t mix
chromatography
a mixture of soluble solids
distillation method
heat solution so it evaporates, turning into a vapour
vapour rises and enters condenser
condenser is cold, water vapour condenses and drips out of condenser into conical flask as distillate
concentration
mass of substance in particular volume
chromatography method
cut section of filter paper as a wick
drop wick into water, liquid drawn up through ink
colour begins to separate on its own
travel up to solvent front
volatile
liquids that can evaporate quickly
limescale
a hard solid residue formed when hard water is heated or boiled
