Study Notes

Sodium Chloride Properties at High Temperature

Sodium chloride is a liquid at 900°C.
At this temperature, the particles are arranged randomly.
The particles move randomly.

Measuring Chemicals

2.00 g of calcium carbonate is added to 50.0 cm³ of hydrochloric acid.
A balance is used to measure the calcium carbonate.
A pipette is used to measure the hydrochloric acid.
A burette typically measures liquid volumes.
A thermometer measures temperature.

Separating a Mixture

Rock salt is a mixture of sand and sodium chloride.
Sodium chloride is soluble in water, insoluble in hexane.
Sand is insoluble in both water and hexane.
To separate sand from sodium chloride, use filter paper and water.
