Chemical analysis 2

Cards (15)

  • Parity formulations
    Formulations with a precise purpose that are made by following a set of instructions
  • Purity
    A substance in its natural state with no additives
  • A pure substance will only have one melting or boiling point
  • Chromatography
    An analytical technique used to separate and identify components in a mixture
  • The result of chromatography analysis is a chromatogram
  • RF value
    The distance travelled by a substance divided by the distance travelled by the solvent
  • The purer the sample

    The lower the RF value
  • The closer the melting point to the actual melting point
    The purer the sample
  • Solvent
    The liquid used in chromatography to move the components through the stationary phase
  • Chromatography
    1. Mobile phase (can move, liquid or gas)
    2. Stationary phase (can't move, solid)
  • The components will normally separate through the stationary phase based on how they distribute between the mobile and stationary phases</b>
  • Chlorine bleaches litmus paper to white
  • Carbon dioxide turns limewater cloudy
  • Hydrogen makes a squeaky pop sound
  • Product formulations allow consumers to choose a suitable product
