In this chapter we will learn about mixtures — how to classify them as solutions, suspensions and colloids, how to measure concentration, and the many techniques (crystallization, distillation, chromatography, and more) used to separate them.
Understanding the Name of the Chapter
Exploring
Looking closely at how mixtures behave.
Mixtures
Two or more substances mixed together.
Separation
Pulling a mixture back into pure substances.
- Mixtures can be uniform (solutions) or non-uniform.
- Different mixtures need different separation methods.
What does the name of this chapter tell us?
- We will study what mixtures are and how they differ.
- We will learn to measure how strong a solution is.
- We will learn methods to separate the parts of a mixture.
