AP Chemistry - 3.9: Separation of Solutions

3 types of chromatography

paper, thin layer, collumn

What does chromatography do

method of separating a mixture of solutions based upon polarity differences

Polarity differences are also called what

solubility

the more similar in polarity of the sample, the ______ it will travel

further

Polar water will have ___ samples travel far, and _____ samples travel a short distance.

polar, nonpolar

What is filtration

removing a solid from a liquid. Or solid from a solution Screen file flip it away

What is distillation

Separating Substances, usually liquids, with different boiling points

Example of distillation

ethanol and water

How does distillation work

Liquid with lower boiling point turns into a vapor gas and is thus removed from the substance, then recondensing and turning back into a liquid

What is chromatography

separating substances with different types of intermolecular forces
