It’s a trick question – they’re all mixtures! Do you know why? A liquid can be pure or a mixture. 7H Mixtures and solutions - Is it pure or is it a mixture? Which of these liquids is a mixture?

2. © OUP: To be used solely in purchaser’s school or college solid – no longer visible liquid – may change colour A solid that dissolves in water is soluble. solid – still visible liquid – no colour change A solid that does not dissolve in water is insoluble. Does the solid dissolve? YESNO 7H Mixtures and solutions - Does the solid dissolve? solid + liquid mixture

3. © OUP: To be used solely in purchaser’s school or college When a solid dissolves in a liquid it forms a special type of mixture called a solution. 7H Mixtures and solutions - What’s the solution? solvent solvent - the liquid/substance that does the dissolving solvent solvent - the liquid/substance that does the dissolving solute solute - the substance being dissolved (a solution can have more than one solute but only one solvent) solvent solute and solution - formed when the solvent and solute mix together solution Click on the beaker for some important solution words beginning with “s”!

Distillation involves three stages: The best method to separate and collect the solvent from a solution is distillation. boiling condensing collecting 7H Separation techniques – Distillation

6. © OUP: To be used solely in purchaser’s school or college water in water out Cold water enters the outer tube at the bottom and warm water leaves the outer tube at the top. Why does this happen? The most important piece of kit for distillation is the Liebig condenser. 7H Separation techniques – Distillation 2. Cold water in the outer tube cools the hot gas, which condenses to become a liquid. 3. The liquid is collected at the bottom. 1. Hot gas passes down the inner tube.
