4 WAYS TO SPEED UP THE RATE OF A REACTION
_increase concentration of reactants_____________________________
- _increase pressure______________________________________________
- _increase temperature___________________________________________
- _use a catalyst_________________________________________________
spectrophotometry
based on how much light is absorbed by an example
conductivity
uses electrical current to check ion concentration
refraction
based on how light waves are bent as they move through a sample
crystallization
super saturating a solution until it cannot stay dissolved
precipitation
add vinegar to milk, causing proteins to clump
distillation
heating a solution capturing vapors and turning them back into a solution
chromatography
using negatively-charged resin to pull
positively-charged solute molecules from
a solution
filtration
using a screen to remove rocks from garden soil
liquid extraction
boiling sap to get syrup
