Chromatography

Chromatography separates different substances in a mixture.
A spot of ink is placed on chromatography paper and the paper is placed in water.
Water rises up the paper and acts as a solvent.
Ink is made of different dyes that are soluble in water.
As water rises, it brings dyes up the paper; different dyes move at different rates.
Dyes that travel the same distance up the paper are the same dye.

The three steps of a paper chromatography experiment: spotting the sample on a pencil baseline, lowering the paper into solvent below the baseline, and analysing the separated spots on the chromatogram.

Simple Distillation

Simple distillation separates a liquid from a dissolved solid (e.g., salt from seawater).
A Bunsen burner heats the mixture; the liquid evaporates, leaving the solid behind.
Vapour travels through a condenser where cooling water passes.
The cool condenser condenses the vapour back to liquid, collected as distilled water.
This method can also separate liquids with different boiling points.

Simple distillation of salty water: water vapour rises from the flask, passes through the condenser (cooling water in at the beaker end, out at the flask end), and is collected as pure water.

Key Terms

Soluble: able to dissolve in a solvent.
Solvent: a liquid that dissolves a substance (e.g., water in chromatography).
Evaporation: change from liquid to gas.
Condensation: change from gas to liquid.

Common Misconceptions

In chromatography, ink is not the solvent; water is the solvent.
Chromatography separates mixtures, not elements in a compound.
Salt cannot be filtered from seawater because salt dissolves; distillation is needed.

Application: Separating Liquids

If two liquids have different boiling points, the one with the lower boiling point evaporates first.
Example: Liquid A (boiling point 100°C) will evaporate before Liquid B (300°C).

Fractional distillation of a water/ethanol mixture: the fractionating column allows repeated condensation and evaporation so the lower-boiling ethanol distils off first.

$Fractional distillation of a water/ethanol mixture: the fractionating column allows repeated condensation and evaporation so the lower-boiling ethanol distils off first.$

States of matter: solid, liquid, gas. Evaporation (liquid to gas) and condensation (gas to liquid) are key in distillation.

## Chromatography and Distillation ### Chromatography - **Purpose**: Separates different substances in a mixture (e.g., dyes in ink). - **Method**: Place a spot of ink on chromatography paper; put paper in water (solvent). Water rises, carrying soluble dyes. Different dyes move at different rates, so they separate. - **Key fact**: If two inks have a dye that rises the same distance, they share that dye. - **Terms**: - **Soluble**: Can dissolve in a solvent. - **Solvent**: The liquid that dissolves a substance (here, water). ### Simple Distillation - **Purpose**: Separates a liquid from a solid (e.g., pure water from seawater) or liquids with different boiling points. - **Method**: Heat mixture (e.g., seawater). Water evaporates (liquid → gas), leaving salt behind. Vapour passes through a condenser cooled by water, condensing it back to liquid (gas → liquid). Collect distilled water. - **Boiling points**: When separating two liquids, the one with the lower boiling point evaporates and collects first. Example: Liquid A (bp 100°C) will be collected before Liquid B (bp 300°C). ### State Changes - **Condensation**: Gas → Liquid (occurs in condenser). - **Evaporation**: Liquid → Gas (occurs when heating). ### Common Mistakes - **Filtering seawater**: Salt dissolves in water, so it passes through filter paper. Use distillation to obtain pure water. - **Chromatography**: Ink is NOT the solvent; water is. Chromatography separates mixtures, not elements in a compound.

Chromatography: A method to separate different substances in a mixture based on their different rates of movement through a medium.
Distillation: A process that separates a liquid from a solid or other liquids by heating to evaporate and then condensing the vapour.

What is chromatography used for?

Chromatography allows us to separate different substances in a mixture.

In chromatography, what is the solvent?

In chromatography, water acts as the solvent.

Why do different dyes separate during chromatography?

Different dyes move up the chromatography paper at different rates, so they separate.

How can you tell if two inks share a common dye using chromatography?

If a dye rises by the same amount up the chromatography paper for both inks, they have that dye in common.

What is simple distillation used for?

Simple distillation can separate a liquid from a dissolved solid, or separate liquids with different boiling points.

A spot of ink is placed on chromatography paper, which is placed in water. Water rises up the paper, carrying dyes at different rates, separating them.

No, because salt dissolves in water to form a solution, so it passes through filter paper. Distillation is a correct method to obtain pure water from seawater.
