38
What happens when metals react with oxygen?
Form metal oxides
39
Pure substance
Made of of a single element or compound
40
How can you test the purity of a sample?
Comparing boiling/melting points
- If it's different than expected, it's impure
41
Simple distillation
Separates liquid from solution.
- Heat up solution until liquid evaporates
- Then condense liquid
42
Fractional Distillation
Separates mixture of liquids
- Different liquids melt at different boiling points
- Heat it up and they will boil at different temps
- Until they're all separated
43
Filtration
Separates Insoluble solid from a liquid
- Filter paper in funnel
44
Crystallisation
Separates soluble solids by crystallisying them
- Gently heat solution
- At point of crystallization, leave to cool
- Salt will from crystals
- Then use filtration
45
Chromatography
Separate and identify substances in mixture
46
Mobile phase
Substance that moves up.
E.g. water
47
Stationary phase
Substances don't move.
E.g. paper
48
Rf value
distance travelled by solute / distance travelled by solvent
49
Gas Chromatography
- Unknown substance injected in tube with stationary phase (thick liquid)
- Substance moves through stationary phase
- Retention time is time it takes to pass through
- This identifies substances
50
Aqueous
dissolved in water
51
Where can you only use half equations
Redox Reactions
52
Mole
amount of substance
53
Avogadro's constant
6.022 x10^23
54
Bond Breaking
Takes in energy (Endothermic)
55
Bond Forming
Gives out energy (Exothermic)
56
Energy change
Energy Change = Energy for breaking bonds - Energy for forming bonds
57
How can you test the pH of a solution?
- Indicator
- Universal Indicator
- pH Probe
58

61
What is pH
Concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution, inversely proportional
62
Indicator
