How do you separate sulphur form a mixture of carbon particles powder rolled sulphur?

One method of separating sulphur from a mixture of carbon particles and rolled sulphur is by using a process called sublimation. Since sulphur sublimes at a lower temperature compared to carbon, you can heat the mixture to a specific temperature where sulphur will vaporize and then condense back into solid form separately from the carbon particles. This way, you can isolate sulphur from the mixture.


How do you take a mixture apart?

One way to separate a mixture is through physical methods such as filtration, distillation, chromatography, or evaporation. Each method exploits the different physical properties of the components in the mixture to separate them.


Why distillation is the most effective way in separating mixtures?

Its not always, crystallization is often used when the mixed materials have similar boiling points. Distillation is only effective when the boiling points are very different. Electrolysis is much more useful in separating alloyed metals into their components. etc.


How could you modify Rutherford's experimental procedure to determine the relative sizes of different nuclei?

Well, honey, to size up those nuclei, you can switch up the game by using different projectiles with known energies and angles of deflection. By comparing the scattering patterns, you can get a good idea of the relative sizes of those bad boys. Just remember, science is all about trial and error, so don't be afraid to mix things up a bit!


What does homogenizing do to milk?

The breaking down of fats in a liquid (usually milk)in order to keep the particles of fat from rising to the topIt means the mixture is homogeneous, which means that it look uniform, and has a common texture all around. For example, water looks uniform, but What_does_'homogenized'_meandoesn't, because it has chunks of other ingredients.

What did you notice about the way the soil particles sank in the water How was it different from the way the soil and sand particles sank?

I noticed that soil particles took longer to settle in water compared to sand particles. Soil particles have smaller particles sizes and more organic matter which makes them less dense than sand, causing them to take longer to sink. Sand particles are larger and denser, so they settle more quickly in water.

How does chromotograhy work using particles?

Chromatography is a way of separating solutions. In schools dyes are usually used to illustrate this. Most dyes are actually solutions of different coloured chemicals. The colours are the solute particles. They are attracted by the solvent particles and the chromotography paper. Each solute is attracted by a different amount. When the colour is separated by chromotography the solutes which are held strongest by the solvent travel the furthest whereas the solutes that are held the strongest by the paper travel the least.

Can you explain different sizes in cello bows?

The different sizes in cello bows correspond to the different sizes in cellos. A 3/4 cello has a shorter bow than a full size cello. When laid on the fingerboard lengthwise with the end at the bridge the bow reaches all the way to the nut at the top of the fingerboard.
