protons

neutrons
 and 
electrons
Last term: 
Explain

prokaryotic
Last Year:

Distillation
Distillation is used to separate 2 different liquids.
Liquids have different 
boiling points
. You can heat up the mixture
so one of them 
evaporates 
but the other one does not.
You can then cool down the gas to 
condense
 it.
 
 
Simple Distillation Equipment
 
1.
Set up your apparatus as shown in the diagram.
2.
Adjust the Bunsen burner so that you have a gentle blue flame.
The air hole should be about half open.
3.
Heat the ink until it boils.
4.
Collect the distillate in the test tube and note the temperature of
the vapour.
Bronze
:
1.
Identify the temperature at which the distillation took place [
1 mark

2.
Describe how ensured no water vapour was lost [
2 marks
]
 
Gold:
1.
Explain
 why simple distillation allows a pure solvent to be separated from a
solution. [
3 marks

2.
A student distils a sample of ink. 
Devise a simple method 
to show that the
liquid collected is pure water. Include the expected results in your answer. [

(
there is a clue in the bronze questions)
 
Silver:
1.
A student carries out distillation on a sample of blue ink.
a)
Predict
 how the appearance of the ink changes, and give a reason for your
answer. [
2 marks

b)
During the experiment a hot liquid drips from the bulb of the
thermometer. 
Suggest an explanation 
for a temperature rise from 83
o
C to
100
o
C as this happens. [

Distillation was used to separate water from ink. Ink has a boiling point of around
200
o
C
 
Potable water
 is water that is safe to drink.
 
To make it safe to drink, you need to remove any harmful substances
or microbes from it.

Distilled water
 is pure water, with no other substances in it.
 
Purifying Sea Water
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Purifying sea water requires 
a lot of energy
.
It is carried out on a large scale when resources are plentiful, or
when pure water is scarce.
Due to the high energy requirement it is avoided if possible.
Water that is safe to drink is called 
potable
 
More often, drinking water comes from 
rivers
 or 
aquifers
 (underground
water sources). It is often stored in 
reservoirs
.
This water often contains 
leaves, twigs, soil, grit, salts, pesticides,
fertilisers, bacteria and other microorganisms
.
 
 
What problem could a reservoir of water have during
the summer?

Bronze
:
1.
Explain how pure water can be produced from salt water
2.
Describe the stages of producing drinking water in the UK
Gold:
1.
Transform
 
the stages of water purification into a flow diagram
2.
Fresh water is treated to make it safe to drink. Soluble and insoluble
substances are removed during this treatment, and chlorine is added to
kill harmful bacteria. Explain two reasons why samples of the treated
water are tested regularly.
 
Silver:
1.
Explain why chemical analysis requires 
distilled water
 to be used
2.
Produce
 a 
flow chart
 or 
diagram
 of the steps used to make 
drinking
water 
in the UK.
Include the key words:
Chlorination
Filtration
Sedimentation
 
Progress Questions
 
1.
Look at the table below. Which substance is a gas at
90
o
C?
 
 
 
2.
Identify the name of the change of state being
described below:
“During this process, particles gain enough energy to break
free from their fixed positions. After this change, the
particles stick together, but are free to move past each
other.”
 
3.
How many different phases are used in
chromatography?

Distillation is a method used to purify water by separating it from impurities through evaporation and condensation. It involves heating the water until it evaporates, then cooling the vapor to collect the purified water. This process ensures the removal of harmful substances and microbes, resulting in potable water safe for consumption.
