It needs a mixture of water and many solutes.
Slide 4 / 39 Mixtures vs. Pure Substances Mixtures contain two or more pure substances. Mixtures do not obey the law of definite composition therefore the relative amounts of each substance can vary depending on the sample. Pure water Salt water H 2 O contains H 2 O, Ca 2+ , Cl - , Na + ..... 89% O, 11% H composition by mass varies chemical separation method physical All mixtures can be separated using physical means while most pure substances cannot with the exception of thermal decomposition of certain pure substances such as metal carbonates and metal chlorates. What are some methods for physically separating mixtures? Slide 5 / 39 Mixtures Mixtures are classified as suspensions, colloids, or solutions based on particle size. Suspension Colloid Solution > 1000 nm 1000 nm <-->1 nm Particle Size < 1 nm Settling Yes No No Yes Homogenous No Yes Tyndall Effect (particles Yes Yes No scatter light) Given the similarity between colloids and solutions, the Tyndall effect is often key to distinguishing them apart. Click here to see a short animation of the Tyndall Effect Slide 6 / 39 Suspensions Due to their large particle size, suspensions can often be separated by filtration. When precipitates form a mixture of aqueous solutions, a suspension is created with the solid precipitate settling out in an aqueous medium. The solid precipitate can be easily separated by proper filtration. filtration precipitate + Other examples of suspensions include sand in water and snow in air.
Slide 7 / 39 Colloids Due to their smaller particle size, colloids cannot be separated by filtration. In addition, the particles neither settle nor dissolve in the greater medium. Fog is a classic example of a colloid, as the water droplets neither dissolve in the surrounding gaseous medium nor do they settle out. The Tyndall Effect is easy to see when driving through fog as the light from the headlights gets scattered by the particles as visualized below by sunshine on a foggy morning. Slide 8 / 39 Solutions Solutions contain the smallest solute particles that dissolve in a medium called the solvent. Solutions are homogeneous mixtures because regardless of sample size, the ratio of solute particles to solvent remains the same. Uniform mixture of solute (purple) and solvent (green) If you took a 5mL sample or a 200mL sample of a solution you would find the exact same ratio of solute to solvent. Slide 9 / 39 Solutions Solutions contain the smallest solute particles that dissolve in a medium called the solvent. Solutions are homologous mixtures because regardless of sample size, the ratio of solute particles to solven remains the same. Salt water is a classic example of a solution. The Na + and Cl - ions are dissolved in the solvent, creating a uniform material. - - Na+ - Na+ - - + + + + + + - + + + - Cl- + + - Na+ + - + + - + Cl- + + + + Cl- + Due to their small size and interactions with the solvent, the solute particles cannot be filtered out. How could you physically separate solutes from solvents in a solution?

A There are no interactions between the solute and the solvent B Solutions cannot be separated by filtration C A sample of a solution will be uniform in composition D Solutions have smaller particles than do colloids and suspensions E Solutions do not demonstrate the Tyndall Effect Slide 13 (Answer) / 39 4 Which of the following would NOT be TRUE of a solution?

The solubility of a solute depends on its state and its affinity for the solvent. Solubility is commonly expressed as g solute/100 g of solvent. Substance Solubility in water @23 C CH 3 OH infinite CH 3 Cl 0.47 g/100 g water CCl 4 0.081 g/100 g water Note: The more polar the molecule, the more affinity for water as it is also polar. CCl 4 is non-polar and therefore has an extremely small solubility in water. The phrase "like dissolves like" is applicable here.
Slide 15 / 39 Solubility The solubility of a solute in a solvent is highly temperature dependent. In general, solids and liquids dissolve better at higher temperatures while gases are more soluble at lower temperatures. Solubility of NaCl (g/100g water) at different temperatures. 0 C 10 C 50 C 80 C 100 C 35.65 35.72 36.69 37.93 38.99 Solubility of NH 3 gas (mL/100 mL water) at different temperatures. 0 C 10 C 50 C 80 C 100 C 11.7 9.0 3.33 1.38 0.88 Note: The decrease in gas solubility with temperature can be explained by remembering that if the gas molecules have a high kinetic energy, they are likely to weaken any solute -solvent attraction and escape the solution.
