Review: Mixtures Two or more ________________ or
_________________ NOT chemically combined. No reaction between substances. Mixtures can be uniform (called
________________________) and are known as solutions.
Mixtures can also be non-uniform (called ________________________).

Key Question How can mixtures be separated?
Differences in physical properties can be used to separate mixtures.
According to your book, what are some methods are used to separate mixtures? Filtration Distillation
Filtration Describe how this works
Solid particles are separated from a liquid in a heterogeneous mixture
What physical property is used to separate the mixture? Size of particles
Distillation Describe how this
works
In a homogeneous mixture, a liquid substance (usually water) is separated from substances dissolved in it through boiling
What physical property is used to separate the mixture? Boiling point
What’s the Difference? When would you use filtration versus
distillation to separate a mixture?
Filtration - heterogeneous mixture of solid in liquid
Distillation - homogeneous mixture of substance(s) dissolved in liquid
Watch Glass Evaporation Describe how this works
Particles are separated from a liquid in a mixture
What physical property is used to separate the mixture? Boiling point // evaporation
Crucible Evaporation Describe how this works
Particles are separated from a liquid in a mixture
What physical property is used to separate the mixture? Boiling point // evaporation
Chromatography Describe how this works
Particles in a mixture are separated as they are carried up the chromatography paper by the solvent
What physical property is used to separate the mixture? Particle size Solubility
Add water to the mixture to dissolve the table salt.
Filter the mixture to remove the sand. Evaporate the mixture to remove the
water.
