Seperating Mixtures

Question 1

Solute

Answer 1

The solid or gas that dissolves in a liquid

Question 2

Solution

Answer 2

A mixture of a liquid with a solid or a gas. All parts of the mixture are the same.

Question 3

Dissolve

Answer 3

The mixing of a substance (the solute) with a liquid (the solvent) to make a solution.

Question 4

Dilute

Answer 4

A solution is dilute if it has a small number of solute particles per unit volume.

Question 5

Insoluble

Answer 5

A solution that can’t dissolve.

Question 6

Soluble

Answer 6

A solution that can dissolve.

Question 7

Evaporation

Answer 7

When you heat up the solution to get the solid or gas which doesn’t dissolve.

Question 8

Filtration

Answer 8

When you separate an insoluble solid from the solution. You use filter paper inside a funnel and the solid that’s left is residue.

Question 9

Distillation

Answer 9

When you boil the dirty/inky liquid and then particles go through the leibig condenser which condenses them into pure water.

Question 10

Chromatography

Answer 10

Chromatography can be used to separate mixtures of coloured compounds. You draw a line in pencil because it’s insoluble so you will know how far the ink has moved up. The colours deprecate because the more soluble the colours the further they will move up. U put the end of the filter paper in some water which will make it move up.

Question 11

Solvent

Answer 11

The liquid in which a solid or gas dissolves
