solid
A state of matter with a fixed shape and volume, where the particles are closely packed and have limited movement.
Solution
What is made when a solute (substance being dissolved) dissolves in a solvent (the dissolving medium) to form a homogeneous mixture.
Insoluble
A word that means a substance does not dissolve in a particular solvent, indicating a lack of solubility.
Liquid
A state of matter where the particles can move relatively freely but are still in close contact, allowing for slight compression.
Deposition
When a gas changes state directly to a solid without passing through the liquid state.
Melting
The change of state from a solid to a liquid, occurring when a substance is heated to a specific temperature.
Sublimation
When a solid changes state directly to a gas without passing through the liquid state.
Freezing
The change of state from a liquid to a solid, characterized by the decrease in temperature and the arrangement of particles into a more ordered structure.
Homogeneous Mixture
A mixture that has the same composition and properties throughout, with uniform distribution of its components.
Temperature
A measure of the average kinetic energy of particles in a substance, where higher temperatures indicate greater particle movement.
Mixture
Two or more species (atoms, molecules, ions) in the same place but not chemically bonded together, maintaining their individual properties.
Condenser
A piece of equipment used for cooling a gas into a liquid by transferring heat away from the gas.
Filtrate
The liquid that passes through filter paper during the process of filtration, typically containing the dissolved or separated substances.
condensate
The liquid that is produced in a condenser, often resulting from the cooling of a vapor or gas.
absolute zero
he name given to a temperature (-273.15°C or 0 Kelvin) where the particles of a substance have no movement at all, representing the lowest possible temperature.
aq
The state symbol in a chemical equation, indicating that a substance is dissolved in water, forming an aqueous solution.
gas
The state of matter where particles have large spaces between them, are highly mobile, and exert minimal attractive forces on each other.
temperature increase
When the kinetic energy of particles in a substance increases, the temperature also increases, leading to greater particle movement.
heterogenous mixture
A mixture that does not have the same composition throughout and contains regions with different properties.
condensation
The change of state that occurs when a gas is cooled to a liquid, characterized by the conversion of vapor molecules into liquid droplets.
distillation
the process of evaporating a liquid and then cooling the gas back into a liquid
evaporation
when a liquid changes state to a gas
mobile phase
in chromatography the solvent is the .... phase
element
a pure substance that cannot be made into simpler substances by chemical means
kelvin
the temperature scale that starts at 0K
molecule
what is formed when atoms bond together
residue
the solid that is trapped by the filter paper in a filtration
solvation
when water molecules surround ions to make a solution
compound
a molecule made up of atoms of different elements bonded together
filtration
separating soluble and insoluble particles
stationary phase
in paper chromatography the paper is the... phase
fractional distillation
distillation that repeats several times to purify the liquid being distilled
atom
the smallest piece of an element that still retains the properties of the element
