Ways to separate heterogeneous mixtures Sorting Filtration Crystallization Evaporation Distillation Chromatography Differences in density Differences in magnetic properties Differences in solubility
Change of phase terms Evaporation = l to g Freezing = l to s Melting = s to l Condensation = g to l Boiling = l to g Deposition = g to s Fusion = s to l Sublimation = s to g
Names of Phase Changes Melting or Fusion Evaporation, Boiling, or Vaporization
Molecules are relatively far apart from each other & can move from place to place. Gas Phase
Molecules are pretty close, but have enough room to slide past each other. Liquid Phase
One substance dissolved in another substance Solution
Homogeneous mixture in a single phase Solution
CANNOT be separated by filtration. Liquid phase MUST be evaporated. Solution
(aq) means dissolved in water It’s a solution! NaCl(aq)
Heterogeneous mixture of a solid in a liquid Must be shaken or stirred constantly Looks murky or opaque Suspension
Solid phase can be separated by filtration Suspension
Heterogeneous Mixture SiO 2 (s) + NaCl(aq) Separate the sand by filtration. Evaporate the water to retrieve the salt.
