Residue
Is the dirt left after you filtrate
Chromatography
Used to separate a mixture of dissolved substances in a solution. Eg th pe different colors in a black marker
Matter
anything that takes up space and mass
Mass
: a measure of the amount of matter in an object
States of matter
three states that matter can exist in solid, liquid and gas
Solid
atoms are close together, they vibrate to transfer energy. Cannot flow, fixed shape. e.g. wood, rock
Liquid
atoms are less close that solid, but still close. Particles can move around. Liquids can flow and change shape. e.g. water, milk
Gas
particles are spread out. Gases can flow and change shape. e.g. air, oxygen
Particles
suggestion that everything is made up of small parts.
Particle theory:
scientists believe that everything is made from very small particles.
Viscosity
the flow rate of a liquid. Water is less viscous (more runny) than maple syrup.
Diffusion
the spreading out of particles to fill the space they are in.
Mixture
consists of two or more substances mingled together but not chemically combined
Filtration
used to separate an insoluble solid and a liquid
Insoluble
does not dissolve in a liquid
Soluble
dissolves in a liquid
Residue
the soil left in the filter paper after filtration
Atom
a tiny particle
Element
a substance made up of only one type of atom.
Chemical symbol:
The letter or letters used on the Periodic table to represent elements
Subatomic particles
the small particles that make up an atom
Protons
a Positively charged particle located in the nucleus of an atom
Neutrons
A neutrally charged particle located in the nucleus of the atom
Electrons
A negatively charged particle, located on shells that orbit the nucleus of the atom
