Q

Distillation

A

The separation of mixtures containing liquids

17
Q

Simple distillation method

A
  • Put solution in distillation flask
  • Connect bottom of condenser to cold tap and run cold water to keep it cool
  • Heat distillation flask
  • Gas will pass through condenser, cooling then condensing into liquid collected in beaker
  • Rest of solution in distillation flask
18
Q

Fractional distillation

A

Used in mixture of liquids

19
Q

Fractional distillation method

A
  • Put mixture in flask
  • Attach fractional column above and connect condenser to column
  • Gradually heat flask, different liquids will evaporate at different boiling points
  • Lowest boiling point liquid will come to the top of column and will be collected first
  • After first liquid is collected, increase heat until next liquid reaches top to condense
20
Q

Filtration

A

Used to separate insoluble solids from liquid

21
Q

Filtration method

A
  • Place filter paper in cone shape into funnel
  • Run mixture through
  • Solid should be left in filter paper
22
Q

Crystallisation

A

Used to separate soluble solid from solution

23
Q

Crystallisation method

A
  • Pour solution into evaporation disk and heat gently
  • Once some of water has evaporated or crystals start to form, remove dish from heat and leave to cool
  • Salt should form crystals as insoluble in cold, highly concentrated solution
  • Filter crystals out of solution and leave them to dry
24
Q

Chromatography

A

Used to separate and identify mixture of soluble substances

25
Q

Mobile phase

A

Where molecules can move (liquid or gas)

26
Q

Stationary phase

A

Where molecules can’t move (solid or really thick liquid)

27
Q

Paper chromatography method

A
  • Draw line at bottom of filter paper using pencil
  • Put spot of mixture on line
  • Put some solvent into beaker and dip bottom of paper (not spot) into solvent
  • Put watch glass on top of beaker to stop any solvent from evaporating away
  • Solvent will move up the paper and will dissolve the chemicals mixture
  • The chemicals will also travel up the paper and form different spots at different places on the paper
  • Remove paper from beaker before solvent reaches top and mark the distance the solvent travelled with pencil

28
Q

Rf

A

Distance travelled by solute
————————————
Distance travelled by solvent

29
Q

Surface water

A

From lakes, rivers and reservoirs

30
Q

Ground water

A

From aquifers (rocks that trap water underground)

31
Q

Waste water

A

Water contaminated by human process

32
Q

Filtration in water treatment

A

Wire mesh, gravel and sand filter out solid bits e.g. twigs

33
Q

Sedimentation

A

Iron sulfate or aluminium sulfate makes fine particles clump and settle at bottom

34
Q

Chlorination

A

Chlorine gas is bubbled through to kill harmful bacteria and other microbes
