Types of Mixtures
What type of mixture has parts that look the same throughout?
What is a homogeneous mixture?
The substance that gets dissolved is called the ________.
What is a solute?
Water is known as the most common ________.
What is universal solvent?
This method uses a filter to separate solids from liquids.
What is filtration?
A student has a beaker of blue salt water. Some undissolved salt is sitting at the bottom. The student wants to collect pure water from the mixture while leaving the salt behind.
- What type of mixture is in the beaker?
- What does the salt at the bottom tell you about the solution?
- What separation method should be used?
What is a homogeneous mixture (solution), a saturated solution, and distillation?
What type of mixture can you see different parts in?
What is a heterogeneous mixture?
The substance that does the dissolving is called the ________.
What is a solvent?
Smaller pieces of solute dissolve faster because they have more ________.
What is surface area?
This method removes a liquid so the solid is left behind.
What is evaporation?
Pizza is an example of this kind of heterogeneous mixture.
What is a mechanical mixture?
A solution with more solute particles in the same amount of solvent is called this.
What is concentrated?
Increasing this usually makes solids dissolve faster in liquids.
What is temperature?
This method uses boiling and condensation to recover both parts of a solution.
What is distillation?
Salt water is classified as this specific kind of homogeneous mixture.
What is a solution?
A solution with fewer solute particles in the same amount of solvent is called this.
What is dilute?
Increasing this helps gases dissolve better in liquids.
What is pressure?
This method separates colors in ink.
What is paper chromatography?
A material made of only one type of particle is called this.
What is a pure substance?
When no more solute particles can dissolve, the solution is called this.
What is saturated?
A solution that can still dissolve more solute is called this.
What is unsaturated?
Petroleum is separated using this special type of distillation.
What is fractional distillation?
