Pure Substances vs. Mixtures
100

any substance that has mass and takes up space and anything that has mass and takes up space

what is Matter

100

What is a solvent 

What is a solute

The solute is the part of the solution that dissolves in the solvent. It is the smaller amount.

The substance that dissolves the solute, it is the larger quantity.

100

the process of separating a solid from a liquid or gas using a filter medium that traps the solid particles while allowing the fluid to pass through

what is flotation 

100

looks the same everywhere and you can’t see different parts

what is Homogeneous 

200

state of matter with a definite shape and volume

what is solid 

200

it can dissolve more substances than any other liquid

what is universal solvent

200

physically separating small particles from larger ones


What is sifting

200

you can see the different parts and they are not mixed evenly.

what is Heterogeneous 

300

a state of matter that has a definite volume but no fixed shape

what is liquids 

300

Concentration is a measure of how much solute is dissolved in a specific amount of solvent or solutionwhat is a Concentration

what is a Concentration

300

something stays on top of the water or goes to the bottom.if it flotes or sinkes

what is floatation

300

a type of heterogeneous mixture where you can see the different parts, and they can often be separated by hand or with simple tools.

What is mechanical mixtures

400

a state of matter with no fixed shape or volume, characterized by particles that are far apart, move freely and rapidly, and fill any container they occupy

what is gass

400

the ability of a substance (a solute) to dissolve in another substance (a solvent) to form a solution.

the ability of a substance (a solute) to dissolve in another substance (a solvent) to form a solution.what is solubility

400

 a process that uses a magnetic field to separate magnetic materials from non-magnetic ones

what is magnetism

400

a type of homogeneous mixture where one substance is completely dissolved in another substance so you cannot see the different parts.

What is solutions

500

All matter is made up of tiny particles.

These particles have empty spaces between them, even though you can't see them. 

They are all in motion. Particles move faster when heated, attract each other

All particles in a particular substance are identical.

Particle Theory

500

The main factors affecting solubility are temperature, pressure, polarity, and the nature of the solute and solvent

factors affecting solubility

500

The process where a liquid turns into a gas (vapor) without boiling

what is evaporation
