Study Notes
Mixtures
- A mixture is formed by combining two or more substances in any proportion without chemical bonding.
- Mixtures retain the physical properties of their individual components.
- Mixtures can be homogeneous or heterogeneous.
Types of Mixtures
- Homogeneous Mixtures: Uniform composition throughout. Example: lemonade without pulp or salt water (3.5% salt concentration).
- Heterogeneous Mixtures: Composition varies throughout. Example: a rock made up of smaller rocks and minerals.
Classification by Particle Size
- Solutions: Homogeneous mixtures with tiny particles that do not settle or can’t be filtered. Example: Salt dissolved in water.
- Colloids: Heterogeneous mixtures with medium-sized particles that remain suspended. Example: Gelatin dessert.
- Suspensions: Heterogeneous mixtures with larger particles that can settle or be filtered. Example: Salad dressing or paint.
Separation of Mixtures
- Mixture components can be separated by their physical properties, like boiling point or solubility.
- Example: Salt can be separated from saltwater by evaporation, leaving salt deposits behind.
- Example: Salt and pepper can be separated as salt dissolves in water while pepper does not, allowing for filtration.
Summary of Key Concepts
- Mixtures differ from compounds, as compounds consist of elements combined in fixed proportions.
- Physical processes (boiling, filtering) can be used for separation of mixture components.
- Iron filings can be separated from sand using a magnet due to their physical property of magnetism.
