Extended Learning
• Imagine you are a little water molecule and you have
been put into the round bottom flask. Describe your
journey as you travel from point ‘A’ to point ‘D’.
Remember to use the important science words
you learnt in your lessons.
• Due date:

Learning Activities for Outcome 1
•There is one more method to get clean drinking water –
Distillation. Often there are parasites and bacteria in water.
Even after filtration these tiny organisms can be left behind.
They can make you very ill if you drink them.
•One way to kill them is by boiling the water.
•Q1: What problems can you think of with boiling your
drinking water?
•Distillation is made up of 2 steps. Boiling/Evaporation and
Condensation.
•Task 1: Watch the teacher demonstration. Label the diagram
using the words.

•Chromatography is a method scientists can use to separate
mixtures.
•If we had a mixture of sweets in a bag we could use our _________ to
separate
the sweets into different groups.
•
•Can you think of any other mixtures that are easy to
separate?
•Chromatography can be used to separate a mixture of different
liquids.
•E.g. A mixture of different coloured inks in a felt tip pen factory.
•
A mixture of different bloods found at a Crime Scene.
•Before they can use chromatography, scientists need to know the
meaning of some important scientific words.
• These words are:
•Liquid Soluble Chromatography Solute
Solvent Chromatogram Solution
Dissolve
Insoluble
What is chromatography?
•Chromatography is used to separate mixtures of coloured
or non-coloured substances that are soluble in the same
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.
•The substances in the mixture get separated because the
more soluble substance spreads along the paper faster.
Identifying dyes in a mixture
•Chromatography can be used to find out if a dye is made
up of a single coloured substance or 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?
•There are 4 important words we use when talking
about mixtures:
•Solute, Solvent, Solution and Solubility.
Using the example of the Cup of tea:
The sugar in the solute.
The tea is the solvent.
The sweet tea is the solution made.
We can say that sugar is soluble in tea or that sugar has
dissolved in the tea.
Task : Draw a large diagram of a cup of tea and label
it using the key words.
Learning Activities for Outcome 2
•
You are walking through the island and you find some blood on a tree branch, but it
doesn’t seem like normal blood
•
You realise you aren’t alone and suspect there is an alien on the island!!!
•
You decide to investigate the island to obtain some samples

Method
• You will have four samples to analyse taken
from various points on the island.
• You will carry chromatography and the sample
of blood that contains the green colour shows
presence of alien life

Method.
•
The apparatus will be set as shown in the diagram below.
•
Cut the paper to make a small flap about 2 – 3 cm this will be placed in the
beaker.
•
Fold the paper back along the top of the small flap you have just cut out.
•
Each sample will be placed on a different piece of paper, just above the pencil
line using a small cotton bud.
•
Place the paper in the beaker of water making sure the pencil line is above the
water level.
•
After 10 minutes remove your chromatograms and allow them to dry in a
sensible and safe place.
•
Be careful the pieces of paper DO NOT over lap as this could contaminate your
results.

Review ( true or false)
• Distillation involves boiling, evaporating and
condensation
• Distillation can only be done to purify water
• Tap water is distilled
• Solute is the solid that you are dissolving
• Chromatography is the method in which mixtures are
separated
• Solvent means it can dissolve
