Filtration Experiment

today in Chemicals and chaos we did an experiment with two different substances. the two different substances are sodium carbonate and copper sulfate. The first steps were safety, so we had to put on some safety glasses then get the equipment for the experiment 

Solvent - thing doing the dissolving (Liquid)

Solute - thing being dissolved (Solid)

Solution - a mixture that is formed. 

Filtration - separates particles based on size.

Filtrate - liquid after it has been filtered.

Mixture - 2 or most substances together.

Solubility - the ability to dissolve.

- blue, transparent, liquid copper sulfate sodium carbonate.

- clear, transparent liquid.

looked like a blue opaque liquid clear liquid-solid, blue copper carbonate. 

the stuff- equipment we used 

sodium carbonate,

copper sulfate, 

conical flask,

stirring rod,

200ml beaker, 

funnel,

filter paper,

Chemicals

Today we in Chemicals and Chaos, we are learning about particle theory and diffusion.

Particle theory is 6 rules about what particles do.

All matter is made up of particles

All particles in a pure substance are the same                       

There is space between all particles

Particles are always moving

There are attractive forces between particles

Temperature affects the speed at which particles move
