Study Notes
Scientific Characteristics
- Flexibility involves altering one's hypothesis to accommodate factual evidence, demonstrating a willingness to adjust conclusions based on new data.
Laboratory Techniques
- Decantation is used to separate mixtures based on differences in their densities or solubility, allowing for the removal of sediment or impurities.
- Filtration is employed to separate solid particles from a liquid or gas, resulting in a clearer or more purified substance.
- Distillation involves the separation of mixtures based on differences in boiling points, allowing for the purification or isolation of specific components.
