Q

how does filtration work?

A

the insoluble solid is left behind on the filter paper as residue and the liquid passes through the filter paper

Q

how does simple distillation work?

A
  • liquid evaporates from the solution, it then cools and condenses in a condenser
  • liquid is then collected based on boiling points

Q

how does fractional distillation work?

A
  1. heat the mixture so it boils at the bottom to form vapours
  2. vapour rises at column
  3. the column is hot at the top and cool at the bottom
  4. vapours condense at different temperatures, depending on their boiling points

Q

what is the conservation of mass?

A

no atoms are lost or made in a chemical reaction

24
Q

what is avogadro’s number?

A

6.02 x 10(23)

25
how do you work out mass?
moles x Mr
26
how do you work out moles?
mass/Mr
27
how do you work out Mr?
mass/moles
28
what is a solvent
liquid that the solute dissolves in
29
what is the mobile phase
phase in chromatography that moves, usually a solvent or a mixture of solvents
30
stationary phase
phase in chromatography that does not move, for example the paper
31
why must the start line be in pencil
pen is an ink and could affect the results and pencil is insoluble
32
what is Rf
distance moved by substance/distance moved by solvent
33
what does a larger Rf mean
the solute is more soluble
34
what is a chemical reaction?
change that involves rearranging atoms within reactant molecules and the formation of a new product
35
how can we tell a chemical reaction has taken place
- colour change - temperature change - bubbles - precipitate formation - odours and sounds
36
what is the rate of reaction
the speed at which a reaction occurs
37
examples of reactions
- rusting - baking - explosions
38
how can you measure the rate of reaction
change in mass, volume, colour or time taken to tur cloudy or precipitate formation
39
rate of reaction equation
quantity of reactant used or product formed/time taken
40
for a chemical reaction to happen... (collision theory)
* reactant particles must collide with each other * particles must have enough energy to react
41
whats a successful collision
a collision that produces a reaction
42
what is activation energy
minimum amount of energy needed to start a reaction
43
what happens if a particle doesnt have enough energy
they just bounce off each other
44
what factors affect rate of reaction
concentration, temperature, catalysts, surface area, pressure
45
how does temp affect ror
as temp increases, the particles move faster so collide more frequently
46
how does catalysts affect ror
they lower activation energy by providing alternate reaction pathways so increases successful collisions
47
how does SA affect ror
increased collision frequency as theres more contact points in the surface of particles
48
how does pressure/concentration affect ror
theres more particles/unit volume making collisions more frequent
49
what does concentration measure
solutions
50
what does pressure measure
gases
51
what is a catalyst
* substance that speeds up reaction without being used up in the reaction * they provide alternate pathway for reaction
52
examples of catalysts
nickel, iron, platinum
53
advantages of using catalysts
* products can be made more quickly so save enrgy and money * expensive byt reuseable * reduce the need to increase temperature so save fuel and pollution
54
biological catalysts
* enzymes - work best in a naerrow range of temp and pH * used in everyday products like washing powders, breaking down food stains
55
biological catalysts
* enzymes - work best in a narrow range of temp and pH * used in everyday products like washing powders, breaking down food stains
