<h2>There are four distinct techniques used to separate mixtures that is : </h2>

Explanation:

Mixtures

They are formed when two or more substances are simply mixed in any ratio not chemically combined with each other.  

Characteristics  

  • They can be homogeneous or heterogeneous in nature that is the constituents can be seen to have visible boundaries or they may appear to mix thoroughly.
  • The Properties of mixtures are same as that of constituents.  
  • The constituents can be separated by physical methods.  
  • Their formations do not require or release energy as there is no bond formation or breakage involved.
  • The Properties of mixtures like melting point & boiling points are not fixed.  

Let us discuss few techniques :

1. Evaporation

For example :To obtain colored component (Dye) from Ink

Materials Required : Watch glass ink (blue/ black) beaker , stand, burner.  

Procedure :  

  • Take a beaker and fill it half with water.  
  • Take  ink (Blue/ black) in the watch glass and place it on the mouth of the beaker
  • Start heating the beaker and observe.  
  • Heating is continued as long as the evaporation is taking place
  • Heating is stopped when no any further change can be noticed on the watch glass  

Observation:  

Evaporation taking place from the watch glass can be seen  

Residue is left on the watch glass  

Conclusion drawn :

  • it can be concluded that ,”Ink is not a pure substance but it is a mixture of dye in water which can easily be separated by evaporation method”.  
  • Ink is not a single substance  

2, Centrifugal method

 For example : To separate cream from milk by using centrifuge method.  

Materials Required : Full cream milk centrifuging machine/milk churner, jug test-tubes.  

Procedure:  

  • Take un-boiled cold milk in two test-tubes and place these test-tubes in a centrifuging machine
  • Centrifuge it at high speed by using a hand centrifuging machine for two minute and observe.

Observation

Cream floating on the milk can be seen.  

Conclusion drawn

When milk is rotated at high speed then the suspended lighter particles (fats and protein molecules) bind with each other forming ‘cream’ and ‘skimmed milk’. The cream being lighter floats over the skimmed milk which can be removed easily.  

3. Sublimation

For example :To separate a mixture of common salt and ammonium chloride :  

Materials Required : China dish, tripod stand mixture of common salt and ammonium chloride glass funnel cotton and burner.  

Procedure:  

  • Take the mixture of sand and ammonium chloride in a china dish.  
  • Cover the china dish with an inverted glass funnel and place it on a tripod stand.  
  • Put a loose cotton plug in the opening of the funnel so as to prevent the escape of ammonium chloride vapors.  
  • Heat the china dish on a low flame and observe.  

Observation :  

  •  White fumes (vapors) of ammonium chloride can be seen coming out of the mixture.  
  • These white fumes start depositing as white solid on coming in contact with the cold, inner walls of the funnel.  
  • Sand salt is left behind in the china dish.

Conclusion drawn: Ammonium chloride, being a volatile substance , changes into white vapors easily which deposits on the cold inner wall of the funnel. This ammonium chloride obtained is called the

A 100.0 mL solution containing 0.864 g of maleic acid (MW=116.072 g/mol) is titrated with 0.276 M KOH. Calculate the pH of the s
Lilit [14]

Answer:

pH = 1.32

Explanation:

                 H₂M + KOH ------------------------ HM⁻ + H₂O + K⁺

This problem involves a weak diprotic acid which we can solve by realizing they amount  to buffer solutions.  In the first  deprotonation if all the acid is not consumed we will have an equilibrium of a wak acid and its weak conjugate base. Lets see:

So first calculate the moles reacted and produced:

n H₂M = 0.864 g/mol x 1 mol/ 116.072 g  =  0.074 mol H₂M

54 mL x  1L / 1000 mL x 0. 0.276 moles/L = 0.015 mol KOH

it is clear that the maleic acid will not be completely consumed, hence treat it as an equilibrium problem of a buffer solution.

moles H₂M left = 0.074 - 0.015 = 0.059

moles HM⁻ produced = 0.015

Using the Henderson - Hasselbach equation to solve for pH:

ph = pKₐ + log ( HM⁻/ HA) = 1.92 + log ( 0.015 / 0.059) = 1.325

Notes: In the HH equation we used the moles of the species since the volume is the same and they will cancel out in the quotient.

For polyprotic acids the second or third deprotonation contribution to the pH when there is still unreacted acid ( Maleic in this case) unreacted.

The half-life of cesium-137 is 30 years. Suppose we have a 200-mg sample. (a) Find the mass that remains after t years.
scZoUnD [109]

Given:

Half life(t^ 1/2) :30 years

A0( initial mass of the substance): 200 mg.

Now we know that

A= A0/ [2 ^ (t/√t)]

Where A is the mass that remains after t years.

A0 is the initial mass

t is the time

t^1/2 is the half life

Substituting the given values in the above equation we get

A= [200/ 2^(t/30) ] mg


Thus the mass remaining after t years is [200/ 2^(t/30) ] mg

Pls help ASAP........ A student was roasting marshmallows over a fire. The student
Phantasy [73]

Answer:

A chemical change

Explanation:

The marshmallow turning brown and bubbling implies that a chemical change has taken place.

For chemical changes to occur, we observe any of the following:

  • a new kind of matter is formed.
  • it is always accompanied by energy changes
  • the process is not easily reversible
  • it involves a change in mass
  • requires considerable amount of energy.

ii. Two signs that shows a chemical change has taken place is that:

  • bubbles are being formed as it is roasted and it implies that new substances have been formed.
  • also, significant amount of heat energy is supplied for the roasting.
