Topic 2-Mix & Flow Flashcards
Pure Substance
A substance made up of only one type of matter.
Mechanical Mixture
Heterogeneous mixture. A mixture in which the different substances are easy to see.
Mixture
Combination of two or more different pure substances.
Soloution
Homogeneous mixture
Mixture of two or more pure substances that looks like one substance.
Heterogeneous Mixture
Mixture in which the different substances can be seen.
Homogeneous Mixture
A mixture in which the different substances cannot be seen
Suspension
Cloudy mixture in which droplets or tiny pieces of one substance are held within another substance. If you leave a suspension undisturbed, its parts will usually separate out.
Colloid
Cloudy mixture in which the droplets or tiny particles are too small to separate out.
What are some examples of mechanical mixtures? (Heterogenous)
Trail Mix
Chicken Noodle Soup
Cereal
What are some examples of solutions? (Homogeneous)
Cake Batter
Lemonade
Jello
Salt Water
What are some examples of suspensions?
Orange juice with pulp
Muddy water
What are some examples of colloids?
Milk
Whipped Cream
Butter
What is paper chromatography?
It is a test of fluids to see if they are pure substances or solutions. I’m he test a piece of filter paper is placed partially into the fluid. If the fluid is a solution, the different substances in it will move up the paper to different levels. If it is a pure substance it will move up the paper to one level
What is a chromatogram?
It’s the filter paper used to test substances used in paper chromatography.
Solute
Substance that dissolves in a solvent to form a solution.
Solvent
Substance that dissolves a solute to form a solution.
What are some popular solvents?
Water and alcohol
Concentration
The amount of solute dissolved in a specific amount of solvent in a solution.
What measurement is the concentration of a solution written in?
g/mL
kg/L
Unsaturated Solution
Solution in which solvent will dissolve. If there is too much solvent then the solution becomes saturated.
Saturated Solution
Solution in which no more solute can be dissolved because there is already to much in it.
Saturation point
A point at which no more solute can be dissolved in a given volume of solvent.
Solubility
The maximum amount of solute you can add to a fixed amount of solvent.
Aqueous Solution
A solution in which the solvent is water.
What are the four main points in the particle model of matter?
- ) All matter is made up of tiny particles. Different substances are made up of different particles.
- ) The tiny particles of matter are always moving and vibrating
- ) the particles in matter may be attracted to each other or bonded together.
- ) the particles have spaces between them.
What three factors help solutes dissolve quicker
Temperature
Size of Pieces
Stirring
What is the process of dissolving?
In a solution, the particles of the solute are attracted to the particles of the solvent. The solute dissolves in the solvent.
