Question | Answer |
---|---|
Does diffusion occur faster in hot or cold water? | Hot, as they have more kinetic energy |
What is a graph of solubility vs temperature known as? | A solubility curve |
What is meant by the solubility of a substance? | The ability of a substance to dissolve in a substance |
Are particles of ammonia or particles of hydrogen chloride larger? | Hydrogen chloride |
Particle theory assumes all matter is made of _______, solid, and _________ spheres | small, inelastic |
What colour is potassium manganate(VII)? (What we use to show diffusion) | Purple |
If a gas is heated within a fixed container, the volume is fixed, meaning what will have to increase? | The pressure |
What colour is bromine gas? | Brown |
In the ammonia and hydrogen chloride experiment, will the ring of ammonium chloride form closer to the wool soaked in HCl or NH3? | Hydrochloric acid (HCl) |
What does the term dilution mean? | Making a solution more dilute (e.g. adding more water in the potassium manganate experiment) |
Which particle determines what element an atom is? | Protons |
What do we call an atom that has a positive or negative charge? | An ion |
What is an isotope? | Atoms with the same atomic number, but different mass numbers OR Atoms with the same number of protons, but different numbers of neutrons |
An atom has 13 protons and 14 neutrons. What is its mass number? | 27 |
What is a compound? | A substance made from two or more different elements that are chemically bonded together |
What is the definition of a mixture? | A combination of two or more substances NOT chemically combined |
What is filtration used to separate? | An insoluble solid from a liquid |
What is crystallisation used to separate? | A soluble solid from a solution |
When trying to obtain crystals from a solution, what method do we have to use if the solid is susceptible to thermal decomposition? | Crystallisation instead of evaporation |
What is paper chromatography used to separate? | Different dyes in an ink |
How do we find the Rf value in paper chromatography? | Distance travelled by substance/distance travelled by solvent |
In paper chromatography, why should we use pencil for the baseline rather than pen? | Pen ink would dissolve in the solvent and move up the paper |
Should the baseline be submerged in the solvent in paper chromatography? | No |
What are 2 solvents commonly used in chromatography? | 1. Water 2. Ethanol |
What is the name of the resulting paper we end up with in paper chromatography? | A chromatogram |
