Give an example of a 2 phase mixture and describe how you would separate the substances

Chemistry

Monica [59]3 years ago

<span><u><em>First, we should define what a mixture and a two-phase mixture mean.</em></u>
<u><em>A mixture</em></u> is a combination of two or more substances without any chemical reaction occurring between them. Components of a mixture can be separated using physical methods such as heating, filtering, evaporation, .... etc
<em><u>A two-phase mixture</u></em> is a type of mixture that contains two different phases of matter, for example solid and liquid phases in one mixture or liquid and gas phases in one mixture.

<u><em>Now, we can give examples of two-phase mixtures and mention how to separate them:</em></u>
<u><em>A mixture of sand and water</em></u> is considered a two-phase mixture (sand is sold and water is a liquid).
<u><em>The components can easily be separated</em></u> using filtration where the sand will remain on the filter paper and water will pass.

Another example is <u><em>a mixture of sugar and water</em></u> (sugar is a solid and water is a liquid).
<u><em>The components can be separated </em></u>by heating. We can eat the mixture until water evaporates and the sugar is precipitated. The evaporated water can then be condensed into a different container.

Hope this helps :)</span>

$$\boxed{{\text{Mixture of sand and water}}}$$ is an example of two-phase mixture and this can be separated by $$\boxed{{\text{filtration}}}$$ .

Further explanation:

Mixture:

The material that is made up of two or more substances is called a mixture. It has no fixed formula and its composition is also varied. All the individual constituents retain their properties after the formation of the mixture.

<u>Types of mixtures: </u>

<u> </u>

1. Homogeneous mixtures

<em>Homogeneous </em>is a Latin word that means the <em>same</em>. These mixtures have a <em>uniform composition</em> throughout. These types of mixtures consist of a single phase only. Air, orange juice and blood are the examples of a homogenous mixture.

2. Heterogeneous mixtures

<em>Heterogeneous </em>is a Latin word that means <em>different</em>. These mixtures that have <em>non-uniform composition </em> throughout. These mixtures have more than one phase. Concrete, soda and chocolate chip cookies are the examples of a heterogeneous mixture.

Characteristics of mixtures:

1. It has a variable composition and has no formula.

2. Mixtures are not formed by any chemical reactions.

3. Mixtures can be either homogeneous or heterogeneous.

4. The constituents of the mixtures can be separated by physical methods such as filtration, heating, drying, distillation, crystallization.

5. The properties of the individual particles of the mixture are retained even after the formation of mixtures.

A mixture of sand and water is an example of a two-phase mixture. Here sand is a solid whereas water is a liquid. The components of the mixture are separated by filtration. Sand will remain on the surface of filter paper while water passes through it.

A student has a balloon that looks shiny like a metal and wants to perform an experiment to determine if it contains any metal.
zheka24 [161]

Answer:

Charge the balloon, hold it near an electroscope, and determine if the electroscope leaves move.

Explanation:

The gold leaf electroscope is an instrument used to detect if a body is charged. It has two gold leafs suspended from a brass stem in a vacuumed glass jar and connected to a metal cap(Toppr).

When the test body is allowed to touch the metal cap, a change in the size of the leaves shows whether the body is charged or not.

Since we are suspecting the balloon to be made up of a metal; metals can be charged. We can test if there is really a charge on the balloon by bringing it near an electroscope to see if the electroscope moves.

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

Mark has a speed of 6 MPS (Miles Per Hour)

Explanation:

It took mark 2 hours to ride his bike to his grandma's house, which was 12 miles away. I divided 2 by 12 and got 6. Remember this: mph = miles away ÷ time.

alexgriva [62]
I think the answer would be dependent variable. An unknown or changeable quantity is called a dependent variable. It <span>is what you measure in the experiment and what is affected during the experiment. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.</span>

What is ksp for agi, if its molar solubility is 9.1 × 10−9 mol/l?
LekaFEV [45]
When the salt AgI dissolves, it dissociates as follows;
AgI --> Ag⁺ + I⁻
molar solubility of salt is the amount of salt that can be dissolved in 1 L of solution
since the ions dissociated are in 1:1 molar ratio, the molar solubility of the ions are equivalent to the molar solubility of the salt.
ksp is the solubility product constant of the salt
ksp = [Ag⁺][I⁻]
ksp = (9.1 x 10⁻⁹ mol/L)²
ksp = 8.28 x 10⁻¹⁷
