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.

What is a potential problem with respect to the timing for when a cytotoxic?
Maru [420]
Cytotoxic is a characteristic of a medicine that bears the ability to cure cancer. The timing of the medication is very important because if not used properly, the substance or the drug may damage also even the healthy cells. Thus, it is just right to caution everyone, especially those who are involved, with the right usage of the drug.

Which of these is a chemical property of a substance? texture ductility reactivity conductivity
beks73 [17]

Reactivity is a chemical property of a substance. According to EPA regulations, it is normally unstable and readily

undergoes violent change without detonating. it can explode or violently react when exposed to water, when heated, or under STP.

Which set contains non-equivalent members?A) enthalpy and heat contentB) endothermic reaction and +HC) exothermic reaction and -
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

E

Explanation:

Here in this question, what we will do is to select which of the pairs that do not correlate.

A. Enthalpy and heat content

This two terms are at par with each other. By definition, the enthalpy of a system simply is the total amount of heat content it has.

B. Endothermic reaction and +H

These two terms are at par with each other. An endothermic reaction is one in which heat is absorbed from the surroundings. It has a positive value for the heat content i.e the enthalpy is positive and thus H is positive.

C. Exothermic reaction and -H

An exothermic reaction is one in which heat is released to the environment. It usually has a negative value for the enthalpy and thus the value of H is negative.

D. High energy and High Stability

These two terms are not at par. When an entity has or is of high energy, it is usually unstable. An entity at a higher energy level will not be stable until it goes to a lower level of energy.

Thus higher energy level is associated with lesser stability while lower energy levels are associated with higher stability. The lesser the energy of an entity, the higher its stability.

This makes the option our answer.

What causes atoms to form covalent bonds?
tino4ka555 [31]

Sharing of valence electrons.

Explanation:

In a covalent bonds, there is sharing of the valence electrons used in bonding between the two combining species.

The atoms taking part do not have a wide electronegativity difference between them and so they share the valence electrons to complete their octet and ensure their stability.

  • For the formation of this bond type, each of the atom requires a odd or unpaired electrons.
  • Covalent bonds are formed between atoms having zero or very small electronegativity difference.
