See? We were meant to be~

Ahahas just a place where imma write down my notes for science.

The solute dissolves in the solvent, which becomes a solution.
e.g. sugar solution--> sugar+water.

A suspension has larger particles than a solution.
The sediment will be suspended at the top;
But gradually will sink down to the bottom.

A colloid's particles are bigger than a solution's, but smaller than a suspension's.
e.g. paint.

An emulsion --> liquid + liquid.
e.g. liquid fat + water --> milk.

A sol--> Solid + liquid ?

A gel -- > A solid within a liquid, e.g. water + gelatine --> jelly.

Smoke --> Solid + Gas e.g. smoke --> carbon + air.

Mist --> Liquid + Gas e.g. mist --> air + fog (?) or something.

Can't think of anything else on that topic.

Okay.

Decanting:

In suspensions, the sediment sinks to the bottom.
So decanting will let the liquid flow down into the glass;
While the sediment will stay in the bottle [for wine]
Sometimes wine is decanted from the bottle to a decanter to a glass;
Cause the sediment might become suspended again from shaking the bottle.

Filtration:

For fine particles; where filter paper is used? x)
The thing with finer particles goes through (filtrate); while the one with bigger particles gets trapped (forgot what its called ==')

Goldpanning:

If you shake things in a container a lot;
The heavier things go to the bottom;
This is used for gold; since it is heavier.

Umm..Electrostatic separation:

Particles get charged
and get magnetially attracted
to parts of the chimney
which are also charged
thus can't get through the chimney.

Ummm that weird ore thing:

Liberation;
water+special chemicals to make flotation cells;
Air blown in to make froth bubbles;
Gangue falls down to the bottom of the cell;
The top is copperore; mostly copper.

Magnetic Separation:

That large conveyor belt can attract metals, and leave non-metals.
So It can attract iron, without getting that other stuff.
It can be turned on and off to release the iron.

Ummmmm can't think of anything else; INSOLUBLE substances.

Evaporation/Crystallisation:

Solvent can be heated up to evaporate;
And the crystals of the solute will still remain.

Chromotography:

Colours travel at different rates
so when put on a medium
they will separate (?)
something like that.

That weird circular drum thing.

Things get spun dry by
the thing spinnning real quickly
so that the clothes
get pushed against the wall
which has holes
which water goes through
and goes down the drain.

Distillation:

So the 'distillate' is collected by
it getting heated up and becoming gas
and traveling through a tube where cold air/ water(?) is pumped in
and the gas is liquid again.

And then there's that thing
the desert technique
the plastic piece of material
traps water
that travels
from plant's roots?

And the thing about
burning stuff
because all things burn at different temperatures
so you can separate them that way.

Absorbance:

This is when a substance ;takes in; another.
E.g. sponge takes in water.
E.g. charcoal takes in gas.

I honestly can't think of anything else..

I wrote that all by myself, without looking at the book or anything, HONEST~!

Whoever read the above doesn't have a life at all.
