| A | B |
|---|
| filtration | separating a mixture by straining it through a material with tiny holes - liquid passes through and the larger particles are trapped |
| evaporation | separating a mixture by allowing a liquid to evaporate, leaving behind the solid particles |
| distillation | heating a mixture of liquides with 2 different boiling points - 1 liquid boils off first leaving the other behind |
| magnetic separation | using a magnet to remove a magnetic material like iron |
| decanting | pouring off a liquid leaving behind a solid or another liquid |
| centrifuging | separating a liquid mixture by spinning a container- the heaviest liquids go to the bottom |
| Mixture | a combination of elements and compounds |
| Homogeneous mixture | substances are evenly mixed(don't separate or scatter) |
| Heterogeneous mixture | substances are not evenly mixed (will separate) |
| solubility | how well solids dissolve in a solution |
| solute | are the solids in a solution |
| solvent | is the liquid in a solution |
| factors can affect solubility | particle size, temperature of solvent, stirring the mixture |
