CHEMISTRY [1 Mark Question Answer]

To perform ink chromatography, you put a small dot of ink to be separated at one end of a strip of filter paper. This end of the paper strip is placed in a solvent. The solvent moves up the paper strip and, as it travels upward, it dissolves the mixture of chemicals and pulls them up the paper.

Water and salt can be separated through the process of distillation or evaporation. The water is boiled till it evaporates into vapor and leaves salt behind as a solid. The boiling point of water is lower compared to the boiling point of salt.

A distillate is a liquid which is condensed from a vapor during distillation.

Distillation is a process of heating a solution in such a way that liquid converts into its vapors and then these vapors are cooled and collected.

Paper chromatography is a technique which is used to separate low-molecular-mass compounds based on their distribution between stationary phase and mobile phase.

A separating funnel is a funnel that is used to separate immiscible liquids.

The process of taking a chemical mixture and using heat to separate out the various components in that mixture is called fractional distillation.

Sublimation is the transition of a substance directly from the solid to the gas phase, without passing through the intermediate liquid. Example: Dry ice” or solid carbon dioxide sublimes.

Evaporation is a process by which water is transformed from liquid to a gaseous state. Heat is the main cause of evaporation.
