Q
Chromatography
A
- physical change no chemical reactions taken place
- works from solubility
- paper = stationary phase
- solvent = mobile phase ( SOLVENT dissolves substances)
the chemical is attracted to the stationary phase
weakly attracted chemicals = move far up
strongly attracted chemicals = not far
Mixture = more than 2 dots
pure substance = 1 dot

Q
Flame tests METAL IONS
A
sodium (so damn loud) = yellow copper = green lithium (lipstick) = crimson lilaK = potassium calcium Calum ScOt = orange red
might not work because:
- low concentration or mixture
use flame emission spectroscopy (faster, accurate, sensitive)
