Common experiments operations

Filtration

Fitration

  • Filtration can be used to separate solid and liquid, which is often used to separate mixture of an insoluble and a soluble substance

Crystallization

Crystallization

  • Crystallization is used to obtain soluble substances from their solution like copper(Ⅱ) sulphate
  • Crystallization often happens with fitration to get a relatively pure sustance

Distillation

  • Simple distillation

Simple distillation without a thermometer

  • Simple distillation can be used to separate the mixture of different kinds of liquid which the differences of boiling point are larger than 25℃

  • In actual experiment, we use thermometer which is inserted in the flask to indicate whether a liquid is separated from the mixture

  • Fractional distillation

Fractional distillation

  • Fractional distillation is used to separate different kinds of liquid which the differences of their melting points are less than 25℃
  • In actual experiment, we use thermometer which is inserted in the flask to indicate whether a liquid is separated from the mixture

Titration

Acid-base titration

  • Titration is used to indicate the concentration of an unknown solution, which is usually used in acid-base titration
  • The actual end point of the titration usually adds slightly more amount of solution than it need to ensure the other solution is fully reacted
  • In acid-base titration, we often use litmus, methyl orange and phenolphthalein as indicator.
