STUDY QUESTIONS

Question 1. Define or explain the following terms :

(a) Sedimentation: The method of separating insoluble solids from its suspension, y allowing it to stand still, such that insoluble solid settles at the base of vessel.

(b) Sediment: The matter that settles down at the bottom is called sediment.

(c) Supernatant liquid: A supernatant liquid is a clear liquid free of precipitate that forms during the chemical process of precipitation and is located above the solid part during settling.

(d) Decantation: It is the process of separating liquid components of a mixture while the solid component has settled at the bottom as sediments.

Question 2. What do you understand by the following terms :

(a) Centrifugation: Centrifugation is the process that uses centrifugal force for the separation of two liquids in a mixture. In this process, the denser component of the mixture migrates away from the axis and the lighter component migrates towards the axis

(b) Distillation: Distillation is the process of separating the components of a liquid mixture through selective evaporation and condensation. The basis of separation is the difference in the vapor pressures (volatilities) of the respective components

(c) Distillate: It is the vapor in a distillation that is collected and condensed into a liquid. Alternatively, it is the name of the product obtained from the distillation process.

Question 3. Explain the following terms as clearly as possible:

(a) Filtration: filtration, the process in which solid particles in a liquid or gaseous fluid are removed by the use of a filter medium that permits the fluid to pass through but retains the solid particles.

(b) Residue or precipitate: A precipitate is the solid formed in a solution during a chemical reaction and residue refers to the material remaining after a distillation or an evaporation.

Question 4. Describe an experiment for separation of pure ammonium chloride from a mixture of common salt and ammonium chloride.

Answer: The mixture should be taken in an inverted funnel covered with a cotton wool plug. Heat the mixture over a low Bunsen flame. After some time, white fumes are seen to rise in a funnel. These fumes are of ammonium chloride.

Question 5. Describe an experiment for the separation of a mixture of sand, saw dust and common salt.

Answer: The mixture of sand, saw dust and common salt can be separated if water is added to the mixture. Stir the mixture well with water and allow it to stand for some time. Sand settles at the bottom of the beaker, saw dust floats on water and common slat dissolves in water. Saw dust can be separated form the top the mixture.

Question 6. Describe how will you separate the constituents of the mixture of iron fillings, ammonium chloride and sand.

Answer: The constituents of the mixture of iron fillings, ammonium chloride and sand can be separated with the help of sublimation. Further, sand and Iron filings can be separated by magnetic separation.
