Unit 1: Particles and purification
  1. Describe solids, liquids and gases in terms of the kinetic particle theory
    1. Solid
      1. arrangement: fixed pattern movement: only vibrate proximity: close together
      2. Liquid
        1. arrangement: random - no fixed pattern movement: slide past each other proximity: close together
        2. Gas
          1. arrangement: random movement: move everywhere rapidly proximity: far apart
        3. Describe change of state in terms of the kinetic particle theory
          1. During a change of state, energy is absorbed (if melting or boiling - breaking inter-molecular bonds), or released (if condensing or freezing - binding inter-molecular bonds)
          2. Describe and explain diffusion
            1. Diffusion is the random movement of particles in solutions or gases leading to complete mixing of the particles
              1. from an area of high concentration to areas of less concentration
              2. Describe how rate of diffusion depends on molecular mass
                1. the speed of diffusion depends on how heavy the molecules of the substance are
                  1. the greater the relative molecular mass, the heavier the molcule
                  2. Name apparatus for measuring mass, time, temperature and volume
                    1. Mass
                      1. measured in kg (in chemistry: grams)
                        1. measured using a (top pan) balance
                        2. Time
                          1. measured using a stopwatch
                          2. Temperature
                            1. measured in degrees C
                              1. measured using a thermometer
                              2. Volume
                                1. Volumes of liquids
                                  1. measuring cylinder
                                    1. volumetric flask
                                      1. volumetric pipette - more accurate
                                        1. burette - more accurate
                                        2. Volumes of gases
                                          1. gas syringe
                                            1. displacement of water
                                        3. Describe paper chromatography and interpret chromatograms
                                          1. Paper chromatography is the separation of a mixture of substances using filter paper amd a solvent
                                          2. Calculate Rf values from chromatograms
                                            1. Rf value = distance from base line to the centre of the spot / distance of solvent front from the base line
                                            2. Understand the use of locating agents in chromatography
                                              1. Locating agents are used to make colouless compounds visible on a chromatogram. Once chromatography has been carried out, mark a line near the top of the paper to show where the solvent has reached - this is the solvent front. The chromatography paper is then dried and sprayed with a chemical (a locating agent) which reacts with the chemicals in the colourless spot and a coloured compound is formed.
                                              2. Identify and assess the purity of substances from melting and boiling point data
                                                1. e.g. Pure water boils at 100 degrees C exactly. Impure water boils above 100 degrees C depending on the concentration of the dissolved salt (impurity)
                                                  1. A pure substance melts and boils at a definite temperature. An impure substance melts and boils over a range of temperatures.
                                                  2. Understand the importance of purity in medicines and foodstuffs
                                                    1. Because we take medicines and foodstuffs into our bodies, they must be pure, otherwise, if there are any unwanted substances (impurities), they may have harmful effects on health
                                                    2. Describe methods of purification using solvents or by filtration or crystallisation
                                                      1. Filtration
                                                        1. Decanting
                                                          1. pouring off the solution
                                                          2. Centrifugation
                                                            1. A centrifuge is a machine which spins test tubes round at very high speeds. The spinning pulls the solid to the bottom of the test tube. Then decant the liquid from the solid.
                                                            2. Crystallisation
                                                              1. Solution is heated in an evaporating basin. The solvent evaporates until crystals start to form at the bottom.
                                                              2. Solvent extraction
                                                              3. Understand the use of simple distillation and fractional distillation
                                                                1. Simple distillation is used to separate water from a dissolved salt. Distillation is a combination of 2 processes: evaporation and condensation.
                                                                  1. Simple distillation can be used to get drinking water from salt water on a large scale.
                                                                  2. Fractional distillation is used to separate a mixture of liquids with different boiling points - to separate more volatile liquids from less volatile liquids.
                                                                    1. Fractional distillation is very important for the separation of petroleum fractions and separating ethanol from water.
