2020/11/9 Homework for this week:

read/review sections 8Ed and 8Ee Define the following

key vocab in your

notebook: chromatography, chromatogram, steam,

water vapor, condensation,

evaporation, distillation, a still (a type of device)

Chromatography->the separation of a mixture by

passing it through a

material through which some parts of the mixture

travel further than others

according to their solubility (more soluble particles

travel further up the

paper than less soluble particles)

Steam-> a kind of gas (the gas phase of water when

water is fully converted

to gas (usually by boiling)

Water vapor-> water that has been evaporarize.

(evaporated) similar to steam

but occurs at any temperature

Condensation,->particles in the gas state turn to solid

due to energy loss

(temperature loss)
Evaporate -> when any LIQUID turns into gasl

Distillation ->If a liquid such as whisky or water is

distilled, it is heated until

it changes into steam or vapour and then cooled until

it becomes liquid again.

This is usually done in order to make it pure.

Still->a device used to distill water and make it

potable (drinkable)

3) Key Concept Questions

a) Explain why different chemicals that make up ink or

paint travel at

different speeds up chromatography paper. (hint

include the word "solubility"

or "soluble" in your answer) Because theink is made

up of different dye chemicals and chromatography

paper separates

them based on their varying degrees of solubility.

Those dye chemicals

(solutes) that spend more of their time "dissolved" in

the solvent will travel

further up the paper. Those that are less soluble and

spend less time dissolved


in the solvent move more slowly up the

chromatography paper.

b) Give a REAL LIFE example of why someone would

use chromatography. What

are they trying to figure out?

Oops no answer here. An example might be for a

painter to recreate a color of

paint exactly using all the correct colors (dyes) to

reach the desired paint

tone.

They are also used for food testing (food quality test)

to make sure the

chemicals in food are the correct ones (for example to

check if beef that is

sold to consumers is actually meat from cows (rather

than a horse! This

really happens!)

c) You made coffee... but then you CHANGED YOUR

MIND. YOU WANT WATER

NOW! Describe all the steps required to separate a

solution of COFFEE back

into pure water and coffee powder.


You first buy a kind of special paper that can let the

water go and gave away

the water. Then you fold the paper twice and make it

into a funnel, and put

it on the beaker or test tube. Next, you pour the tea

into the funnel and you

can use dilution water to clean the cup. Last wait and

you you will get some

splendid water and the powder.

OR, YOU CAN JUST BUY ANOTHER BOTTLE OF WATER

AND ANOTHER PACKET OF

COFFE POWDER. THAT IS MUCH [Link] I like

your second answer the best! I agree it's much easier.

But if you use the first method you mentioned, you'll

still be unsuccessful. Coffee is a

homogenous solution where water particles fully

dissolve the coffee paricles.

We could get pure water again by distilling the coffee

solution which involves

the following:

1. Heating the coffee solution to the point of boiling

(vaporization)
where liquid water will turn into pure water vapor. The

less dense

water vapor will rise through the distillation apparatus

until it reaches

a condensing tube.

2. The condensing tube is attached to a cool water

inlet (further from

the entry point do the water vapor) which allows cool

water to run

outside of the condensing tube chamber removing

energy from the gas

particles so they change state back to liquid

(condensation) . The

particles condense on the sides of the glass attracted

by hydrogen

bonding and gravity will pull the droplets of pure liquid

water into a

beaker or cup as a result of the downward angle of the

condenser..

3. Now you can drink the pure, distilled water and the

un-vaporized
solute will remain in the original container that was

heated

4) CHALLENGE!!! Write your own

distillation/chromatography related question

to share with the class next week. I am not sure.

You don't have to be sure! Asking a question, and then

trying your best to

find the answer is literally what science is ALL ABOUT!

Nobody's ever sure

until they try. So let's try please!

Example: can chromatography be used to solve

crimes?Can you distill milk to

get potable water?

Homework for this week:

1) read/review sections 8Ia (Hot Stuff)

preview 8Ib, 8Ic

2) Define the following key vocab in your notebook:

heat, temperature, joules, thermal energy, thermal

equilibrium, thermal expansion, kinetic energy

Heat-> the level of temperature.

Temperature ->the mearurement indegrees of how

hot or cold a thing or a place is.

Joules->In physics, a joule is a unit of energy or work.

Thermal energy -> some kind of energy or heat generate

by something.

Kinetic energy -> energy of motion.

Thermal equilibrium->a state in which all parts of a

system are at the same temperature

Thermal expension -> hot enough to make it bigger.

3) Key Concept Questions

a) Explain the diference between "heat" and

"temperature" and how they are related to eachother.

Heat and the temperature are related but not the

same . We can measure temperature with a


thermonmeter but we cannot measure the amout of

heat energy something contains using one.

b) You have 2 bottles of water. "Bottle A" has 1 liter of

water at 30 degrees celsius, "bottle B" has 2 liters of

water also at 30 degrees celsius. Which container of

water contains more thermal energy (heat)?

I think it is the bottle “B” because in the real life, when

I am adding water to my bottles, put 50ml of hot water

with 40ml cold water is just right ot me. But if I put

100ml and 80ml of water, I think it will be too hot, for

some reason, I think the hotness will increase just like

the counpuond interest or simple intereted, but the

cold water just don’t change.

c) Explain why a MASSIVE iceberg at 0 degrees celsius

can have more heat than a SMALL but very hot coffee.

The temperature of the iceburg is higher because it

has more temperature.

d) List 2 examples of objects that have a very HIGH

temperature, but relatively LOW heat (thermal

energy). hint: think about the sparkler example from

your book.
Spark& fire

4) CHALLENGE!!! Write your own heat/temperature

related question to share with the class next week.

Thanks!

Also! A great question was asked about how to

separate substances that have the same boiling point!

Some other options besides filtration (if particles have

different sizes) or chromatography (if substances have

different solubilities) is to separate them by freezing (if

they have different freezing points) or by spinning

them very fast in a centrifugation device (which works

to separate substances that have significantly

different densities) I hope that helps!
