Separating Techniques Flashcards
Simple Distillation
Technique to separate liquid from a solution.
Fractional Distillation
Separates liquids based on differing boiling points.
Filtration
Separates solids from liquids using filter paper.
Crystallisation
Process to obtain solid from a saturated solution.
Chromatography
Technique to separate pigments in a mixture.
Thermometer
Measures temperature during distillation processes.
Liebig Condenser
Cooling device used in distillation to condense vapors.
Boiling Point
Temperature at which a liquid turns to vapor.
Distillate
Pure liquid collected after distillation.
Filtrate
Liquid that passes through filter paper.
Residue
Solid left on filter paper after filtration.
Evaporating Basin
Container used to evaporate solvents from solutions.
Solvent
Liquid that dissolves a solute in a solution.
Solute
Substance dissolved in a solvent.
Pencil Base Line
Starting point for chromatography spots.
