Some Analytical Techniques in one look

purifying and separating what a mixture is hiding

Filtration and Crystallisation

  • insoluble impurity removed by filtration: residue stays on the paper, filtrate passes through
  • suction filtration: Buchner funnel plus vacuum pump, faster, used for hot filtration
  • a safety bottle sits between flask and pump, keeps filtrate out
  • crystallisation: dissolve near-saturated hot, filter hot, cool to crystallise, filter again for pure crystals
  • the leftover filtrate after crystallisation is the mother liquor
  • a good solvent dissolves little cold, plenty hot
  • it must not react with the compound, and is volatile enough to remove
  • the usual solvents: water, ethyl or methyl alcohol, acetone, ether
  • copper sulphate, benzoic acid and common salt are all crystallised from water
  • purification exploits a difference in physical properties, e.g. filtration exploits solubility
  • the everyday version: tea leaves out of a decoction, sand out of sandy water

A Good Crystallisation Solvent

  • Cold vs hot: little dissolves cold, plenty dissolves hot
  • Unreactive: does not react with the compound
  • Volatile: removed easily afterward
  1. Dissolve hot: a near-saturated solution
  2. Filter hot: insoluble impurities stay behind
  3. Cool: solute crystallises, soluble impurities stay dissolved
  4. Filter again: pure crystals, free of both impurities

How CapCompass uses this sheet

These notes are not a standalone PDF. CapCompass plans Chemistry chapter by chapter against your real exam dates and free hours, and when the plan reaches Some Analytical Techniques the sheet opens inside the study block itself — at the page covering the sub-topic that block is on, with the timer still running. Revision arrives at the moment the plan says revise, instead of having to be gone looking for.
