Topic: Mixtures and Solutions
Objective: Distinguish between Mixtures and Solutions. Give and describe examples of both concepts.



MIXTURE AND SOLUTIONS GUIDED NOTE ANSWERS

Elements:

  • atom
  • cannot
  • Periodic Table
Compounds:
  • atoms
  • chemically
  • cannot
Mixtures:
  • elements or compounds
  • homogeneous

Mixture, Solutions, and Pure Substances Vocabulary 


(Students will create a Vocabulary Foldable for each term). Students will use the following article to define the vocab terms.




  • Heterogeneous Mixture-Mixture does not have uniformed composition
  • Homogeneous Mixture-Mixture does have uniformed composition
  • Mixture-combination of two or more substances that have not combined chemically
  • Pure Substancehas a definite and constant composition,
  • Solution-Mixture in which the molecules of one substance is dissolved in another substance
  • Suspension-Mixture in which particles are large enough to settle out.
  • Element-Different kinds of atoms
  • Compound-Matter made up of two or more elements
  • Solvent- substance in which dissolves
  • Solute- subatance that gets dissolves


Mixtures and Solution On-line Activities








Solute substance that gets dissolved, Solvent Substance that dissolves , and Solution result of combining a solute and solvent.
