What is the purpose of the piece of filter paper inside the 400 mL beaker?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Natalka [10]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

The purpose of a filter paper inside a beaker is to retain the suspended solid particles found in the solution.

<em>The retention capacity of the filter paper will depend on the size of the pores of the filter</em>. Thus, for example, if the pores of the filter have a diameter of 1 mm, particles with a diameter greater than 1 mm will be retained, and the rest of the solution will pass through the pores.

The removal of impurities through filters is a physical separation process.

Why do some atoms form positive ions and others form negative ions?
Scrat [10]
It is energetically favorable for all atoms to have a complete outer electron shell. Loosely, the atoms on the left hand side of the periodic table only have a few extra electrons in their outer shell so it is energetically favorable for them to lose them. The atoms on the right hand side of the periodic table almost have enough electrons in their outer shell and so they have a tendency to gain them. Once electrons have left an electron shell, an atom will have a positive charge because it has more protons (positive charges) than electrons (negative charges). Similarly, an electron which has gained electrons to complete its outer shell will have a negative charge because it now has more electrons (negative charge) than protons (positive charge).

How does a chemist count the number of particles in a given number of moles of a substance?
jolli1 [7]
The chemist the count the number of particles (Atoms, Molecules or Formula Unit) in a given number of moles of a substance by using following relationship.

                              Moles  =  # of Particles / 6.022 × 10²³

Or,

                              # of Particles  =  Moles × 6.022 × 10²³

So, from above relation it is found that 1 mole of any substance contains exactly 6.022 × 10²³ particles. Greater the number of moles greater will be the number of particles.
