Answer:

When two or more substances, that do not react chemically, are blended together,

the result is a mixture in which each component retains its individual identity and

properties.

The separation of the components of a mixture is a problem frequently encountered

in chemistry. The basis of the separation is the fact that each component has a

different set of physical and chemical properties. The components are pure substances

which are either elements or compounds. Under the same conditions of pressure and

temperature, the properties of every sample of a pure substance are identical. Each

sample melts at the same temperature, boils at the same temperature, has the same

solubility in a given solvent, etc.

Although these and other characteristics can be used to identify a particular

substance, we will be concerned, in this experiment, with the separation of a mixture

into its components, not with the identification of the substances. Techniques used to

separate mixtures rely on differences in the physical properties of the components.

Techniques useful for the separation of mixtures include the following:

DISTILLATION is the purification of a liquid by heating it to its boiling point, causing

vaporization, and then condensing the vapors into the liquid state and collecting the

liquid. Separation of two or more liquids requires that they have different boiling

temperatures. All boiling temperatures can be reduced by decreasing the pressure

on the liquid.

EXTRACTION is the removal of one substance from a mixture because of its

greater solubility in a given solvent.

FILTRATION is the process of removing or "straining" a solid (the chemical term is

precipitate) from a liquid by the use of filter paper or other porous material.

DECANTING is the pouring of a liquid from a solid-liquid mixture, leaving the solid

behind.

CENTRIFUGING is the process of separating a suspended solid from a liquid by

whirling the mixture at high speed.

SUBLIMATION is the physical property of some substances to pass directly from

the solid state to the gaseous state without the appearance of the liquid state. Not

all substances possess this characteristic. If one component of a mixture

sublimates, this property may be used to separate it from the other components of

the mixture. Iodine (I2), naphthalene (C10H8, mothballs), ammonium chloride

(NH4Cl) and dry ice (solid CO2) are some substances which sublime.

CHROMATOGRAPHY is the process of separating a mixture by the distribution of

its components between two phases, one phase being stationary and the other

phase moving. Some examples of chromatography are gas chromatography, paper

chromatography, and thin-layer chromatography.

Which is a characteristic of a strong base
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

Explanation:

The strong bases have following properties:

1. In solution, strong bases ionize fully.

2. On dissolving the strong bases in water they produce all hydroxide ion which they have.  

3. For strong bases the value of equilibrium constant (Kb  ) is large.

4. In general the strong base ionizes completely means concentration of ions are greater means conductivity also greater.

5. For strong bases the value of equilibrium constant (Kb) is large, thus the value of dG0 is very large negative number.

A sample of gas at 1.10 atm has a volume of 326 mL. What is the new volume if the pressure is changed to 1.90 atm?
Brut [27]

Answer

For this we use ideal gas equation which is:

P1V1 = P2V2

P1 = 1.10 atm

V1 = 326 ml

P2 = 1.90

V2 = ?

By rearranging the ideal gas equation:

V2 =  P1V1 ÷ P2

V2 = 1.10 × 326 ÷1.90

V2 = 358.6 ÷ 1.90

V2 = 188.7 ml

Different between a bird and a rat​
Bess [88]

Explanation:

Rats and mice are both rodents, so look similar - the biggest difference is their size. Rats are larger and heavier while mice have smaller slender bodies. Mice also have long slender tails (for their body size) covered in hair compared to rat tails which are shorter, thicker and hairless
