i)                 An element is a pure substance which cannot be split into simpler substances by any chemical means. Example Iron, silver, gold, Aluminium etc

ii)               A compound is a pure substance that is made up of two or more elements in chemical combination.

iii)              A mixture is a physical combination of two or more substances in any ratio.

iv)             A solvent is a component of the solution that dissolves other substances.

v)              A solute is the component in a solution that is dissolved in a solvent.

 

03. (a) Differences between mixture and compounds

Mixtures

Compounds

Compounds may be seen separately

Components cannot be seen separately

 

The components can be separated from one another by physical method

 

The constituent elements cannot be separated by physical means

Mixtures may vary widely in composition. The elements are mixed in any ratio

 

Compounds always have definite compositions by mass of the elements. The properties cannot be changed

 

No chemical change takes place when a mixture is formed

 

When new substances are formed, they involve a chemical change

 

The properties of a mixture are those of the individual elements

 

The properties of compounds are very different from those of individual elements

 

 

(b) Differences between suspensions and solutions

Solution

Suspension

It is homogeneous

It is heterogeneous

 

It is transparent or clear

It is opaque or not clear

 

Particles are completely dissolved

Particles separates on standing

 

Components are separated by evaporation

Components are separated by filtration

 

 

04. Uses of solvents

Solvents can be used:

ü  As the bleaching agent

ü  As stain removal

ü  As varnish removal

ü  As degreasing

ü  For cleaning

 

05.  

i)                 Immiscible liquids

ii)               Immiscible liquids

iii)              Miscible liquids

iv)             Immiscible liquids

v)              Miscible liquids

06.  

i)                 Sublimation

ii)               Layer separation (using separating funnel)

iii)              Fractional distillation

iv)             Magnetic

v)              Solvent extraction
