16
Q

How can compounds be separated into their component elements?

A

only through chemical changes/reactions

17
Q

Mixture

A

two or more pure substances combined together that are NOT bonded together

18
Q

How can mixtures be separated?

A

Through physical changes

19
Q

Homogeneous mixture

A

a mixture where the components are evenly mixed all the way down to the molecular level

20
Q

Another word for homogeneous mixture

21
Q

Heterogeneous mixture

A

a mixture where the components of the mixture are NOT evenly mixed all the way down to the molecular level

22
Q

Which has larger particles: a suspension or a colloid?

23
Q

Which will settle out eventually: a suspension or a colloid?

24
Q

What type of mixture can the Tyndall Effect help to identify?

25
Distillation
A method used to separate two pure substances with different boiling points
26
Filtration
A method used to separate a solid substance out of a liquid (heterogeneous mixtures only)
27
Chromatrography
A method used to separate solutions that relies on the different attractions of each component towards another substance
28
Physical Property
a property that can be observed without changing the nature of the substance
29
Chemical Property
a property that can only be observed by changing the nature of the substance
30
Physical Change
a change that does not result in a different substance
31
Chemical Change
a change that results in a new/different substance
32
Extensive Property
physical property that depends on the amount of matter present
33
Intensive Property
physical property that does not depend on the amount of matter present
34
Ductility
ability to draw into thin wires
35
Malleability
ability to shape into flat sheets
36
Refractive Index
Measurement of how much a substance bends a light ray as it passes through it
37
Recognizing a chemical change
``` Formation of a precipitate Change in color Production of a gas Change in energy (temperature) Change in smell ```
