| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| What is a homogeneous mixture? | A mixture that can’t be distinguished with the naked eye and whose composition and properties are identical. |
| What is a heterogeneous mixture? | A mixture that can be distinguished and whose composition and properties are different. |
| What are solutions made up of? | They are made up of solvent and solute. |
| What is a solvent? | It’s the main component of a solution |
| What is a solute? | It is a component found in smaller quantities. |
| What are alloys? | Alloys are solid solutions made up of two or more chemical elements of which at least one is a metal. |
| What does the concentration of a solution tell us ? | The concentration of a solution tells us how much solute te here is in a given solvent or solution. |
| What is solubility? | Maximum amount of solute that can be dissolved in a solvent |
| What is filtration? | A technique to separate a solid from a liquid. |
| What is magnetic separation? | Technique to separate heterogeneous mixture that only works if one of the substances has magnetic properties and th e rest don’t. You need a magnet |
| What do you need for the technique of filtration? | A filter, a funnel and beaker |
| What does immiscible mean? | It can’t be mixed. |
| What is distillation? | Technique to separate homogeneous mixture that consists of separating soluble liquids that have different boiling points. |
| What is evaporation ? | Technique to separate homogeneous mixture consisting of separating a solution made up of solids solute dissolved in a liquid solvent by natural means ( for example by letting water evaporate) or by heating to boiling point. |
| What is crystalllisation? | The process by which crystals are formed. |
| What is an atom? | Smallest and indivisible part of matter. |
| What are the particles of an atom? | Neutrons, electrons and protons |
| What are the properties of protons? | They are Positively charged and their mass is 2000 times bigger than electrons. They are located In the nucleus. |
| What are the properties of a neutron? | They are Neutrally charged and their mass is the same as the one in protons. They are located in the nucleus. |
| What are the properties of an electron? | They are Negatively charged and their mass is very small. They are located in the orbit around the nucleus. |
| What does the atomic number indicate? | The number of protons |
| What is the mass number? | It is the sum of protons and neutrons |
| What are the isotopes of an element? | They are what we call the atoms of an element with a different mass number |
| What is the atomic mass number of an element? | It is defined as the average mass of the mass numbers of its isotopes according to their abundance. |
