Study Notes
Separating Mixtures
- Mixtures are combinations of two or more substances that are physically combined, not chemically bonded.
- Mixtures can be separated using various physical methods.
- Examples of mixtures include air, saltwater, and soil.
Methods of Separation
- Evaporation: Separates a dissolved solid from a liquid. Heat the liquid until it evaporates, leaving the solid behind.
- Filtration: Separates solids from liquids or gases based on particle size.
-
Distillation: Separates liquids with different boiling points by heating the mixture and condensing the vapor.
- Simple Distillation: Separates liquids with significantly different boiling points.
- Fractional Distillation: Separates liquids with closer boiling points.
- Magnetism: Separates magnetic solids from non-magnetic materials.
- Density: Separates substances with different densities by floating or sinking them in a liquid.
Chemical Reactions in Separation
- Chemical Reaction: A process where one or more substances (reactants) are converted into one or more different substances (products).
- Chemical reactions involve the breaking and forming of bonds between atoms.
- Example: 2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂ (Sodium reacts with water to produce sodium hydroxide and hydrogen gas).
Elements, Compounds, and Mixtures
- Element: A pure substance made up of only one type of atom.
- Compound: A substance formed when two or more different elements combine chemically.
- Examples of elements include hydrogen, oxygen, and iron.
- Examples of compounds include water (H₂O), sodium chloride (NaCl), and carbon dioxide (CO₂).
Electron Configuration
- Atoms have electron shells.
- Atoms strive to have a full outer shell (usually 8 electrons, except for hydrogen and helium which have 2) to achieve stability.
