Unit 1 & 2- Seperating Particles And Method/ Atomic Structure Flashcards
What is crystallisation?
Crystallisation is when you separate water from salt
What is the simple method of crystallisation
- Crush the rock salt with a pastel and mortal (so it is easier for the salt to dissolve)
- Dissolve the salt ( to separate the salt from the rock)
- Filter off the rock (to separate the rock/ residue from the salty water)
- Evaporate the water, on a Bunsen burner, take the evaporating basin off the bunsen burning before it starts spiting and let it evaporate naturally
What is distillation
Separating a solid from a liquid
What do u put in a solution when you are full scale distillation
Anti bumping granules
What is the thing called that the distillate is carried through
Dilverary tube
What it the thing called that passes cold water through so the distillate condense quicker
Liebig condenser
Why is full scale distillation better?
Because…
- You do not lose the distillate
- There is a thermometer so you know when it is boiling
What is filtration?
Filtration is when you filter a solid out of a liquid
What is fractional distillation?
It is when you separate two liquids with similar boiling points
What is the extra apparatus that you use in fractional distillation
Fractionating column
In chromatography what does it mean i your ink does not travel up your page far
It means that the ink is not very soluble
In chromatography what happen it you draw your line in ink
The ink line would travel up the page just like the substance you are testing
What is an element
An element is a substance that are made from only one type of atom
What is an atom
An atom is the smallest unit of an element the still has the same properties as an element
What is a mixture
A mixture is when atoms, elements or molecules mix together
What is a compound
A compound is when atoms of different elements join together
What is a molecules?
A molecules is when two or more atoms join together
What is the apparatus that is used in fractional distillation but not used in full scale distillation
A fractionating colum
What will happen if you draw the pencil line in chromato graphy in pen
The ink will spread up the paper just like the substance that you are testing
What does it mean if the ink your are testing does not travel far up the page
It is not very soluble
What is an element
An element is a substance that are made from only one type of atom
What is an atom
The smallest unit of an element that still has the same properties as an element
What is a mixture
When atoms, element or molecules mix together
What is a compounds
A compounds is when atoms of different elements join together
