  • Chemistry Year 10
    • Separating Mixtures
      • Distillation
        • Separates liquids with different boiling ponts
        • Liquid heats, evaporates, cools
        • Waters boiling point: 100°C
        • Ethanol evaporates at 79°C
      • Chromatography
        • Used to separate pigments from a mixture
        • Solvent (eg. Water) soaks into paper and moves upwards
          • Soluble substances in the mixture dissolve and travel up the paper with the solvent.
        • Substances can be identified by how far they have travelled.
      • Filtration
        • Insoluble solid from a liquid
          • Eg. Sand from water
      • Evaporation
        • Soluble solid from a liquid
          • Eg. Salt from salt water
    • Atomic Structure & the Periodic Table
      • Atoms
        • Positively charged nucleus, negative electrons orbiting
        • Number of protons = Number of electrons
          • No overall electrical charge
        • Atomic number = number of protons
        • Mass number = number of protons and neutrons
        • Isotope = atoms of the same element with different number of neutrons but same amount of protons and electrons
      • Arrangement of the Periodic Table
        • Groups vertically across
          • Number of electrons on outer shell shows what group
          • Elements in the same group have similar properties
        • Periods horizontal
          • Number of shells show what period
        • Metals are on the left side and centre, non metals on the right
          • Metals on the dividing line are called metalloids
            • Properties of metals  and non metals
      • Ion = charged atom (gained or lost and electron)
        • Losing or gaining more than one electron is harder that just losing one. Therefore group 2 and 6 elements are less reactive than groups 1 and 7
