- Question 1multiple choice · 1 mark
The diagram shows the result of dropping a purple crystal into water. (Diagram: a beaker of water with a small purple crystal resting at the bottom; after five hours the whole beaker contains an evenly coloured purple solution.) Which processes take place in this experiment? (Choose the row that correctly shows whether chemical reaction, diffusing and dissolving each occur.)
- Question 2multiple choice · 1 mark
Alcohol and water are completely miscible. This means when mixed together they form only one liquid layer. Which method is used to separate alcohol from water?
- Question 3multiple choice · 1 mark
