For example, a cup of instant coffee
is a solution.
The solid that dissolves (e.g. coffee
granules) is called the solute.
The liquid that does the dissolving
(e.g. hot water) is called the solvent.
How many other examples of
solutions can you think of?
Mixtures and solutions
A mixture is two or more substances that are mixed together
but not chemically joined.
A solution is a special type of mixture that is made when
a solid dissolves and mixes a liquid.

Salty water
Where does the salt around the Dead Sea come from?

Separating mixtures
Sea water is a salty mixture
that contains water, salt,
sand and other substances.
The Dead Sea is a salty lake
that contains some of the
saltiest water in the world!
The Dead Sea is almost six times more salty than the ocean,
so nothing is able to live in it and that’s why it is called “dead”.
The substances in a mixture, such as salty water, are not
chemically joined which means they can be separated.
How is salt separated from salty water?

How are solids separated out of mixtures?
If a solid is insoluble (e.g. sand in water) then
it is easy to separate it by filtering the mixture.
The insoluble solid cannot pass through the filter
paper but the water can.
To separate a soluble solid from a liquid
(e.g. salt and water), evaporation can be used.
The solution is heated so that the water
evaporates and leaves the dissolved solid behind.

Separating salt from sea water
The main salt dissolved in sea
water is “common salt”.
In hot areas, how can the Sun
be used to separate the salt
from sea water?
The heat of the Sun evaporates
the water, the salt is left behind
and collected in salt beds.
Salt can also be obtained from
‘rock salt’ found in layers under
the ground.
How are dissolving, filtering and evaporating used to separate
the salt from rock salt?

Separating solvents
Evaporation can be use to separate and collect the solute in
a solution. How can the solvent be collected?
The technique use to obtain
a solvent from its solution is
called distillation.
Distillation has three steps:
 evaporating;
 condensing;
 collecting.
The solution is heated so that the solvent (a liquid) evaporates
and is turned into a gas. The solute is left behind.
The gas cools in the condenser and turns back into a liquid.
This liquid is collected and is pure solvent.

A spot of the mixture is placed on some filter paper.
In method A, the solvent is soaked up the paper.
In method B, the solvent or is slowly dripped onto the paper.
What is chromatography?
The substances in the mixture get separated because
more soluble substances spread along the paper faster.
Chromatography is used to separate mixtures of coloured or
non-coloured substances that are soluble in the same solvent.

The
mixture
consists
of dyes
3 and 5.
Identifying dyes in a mixture
Dots of known single dyes are placed alongside the dot for
the unknown mixture.
After the solvent washes through the paper, the pattern of
the dyes in the mixture is compared with the single dyes.
Which dyes does the mixture consist of?
Chromatography can be used to find out if a dye is made up
of a single coloured substance or a mixture.

Does sugar dissolve in a cup of cold tea?
The sugar does dissolve but not as much
as in a cup of hot tea.
The sugar is more soluble at higher
temperatures.
How does the solubility of a substance change
with temperature?
The solubility of a substance usually increases as
the temperature increases.
How does temperature affect solubility?
The amount of a solute that can dissolve at
a given temperature is called its solubility.
