INSIGHT PAPER #1: MIXTURES

THE LESSON IS ABOUT CHEMISTRY WHEREAS WE

TACKLED CLASSIFICATIONS OF MATTER, THE LESSON
MADE T CLEAR THAT THE REASON WHY THERE ARE
PURE SUBSTANCES CANNOT BE SEPARATED BY MEANS
OF PHYSICAL METHODS, SO THE ANSWER IS SIMPLY THE
CHEMICAL BOND. UPON DEEPENING AND REVIEWING
MY UNDERSTANDING ABOUT CHEMICAL BOND DURING
MY SENIOR YEARS, THERE ARE FOUR MAJOR TYPES OF
CHEMICAL BOND, 1ST IS THE IONIC BOND, IT IS METAL
ATOM LOSES ELECTRON/S TO A NONMETAL ATOM. THE
2ND IS COVALENT BOND WHEREAS TWO NONMETAL
ATOMS SHARE ELECTRONS. 3RD IS THE HYDROGEN BOND
FROM THE NAME ITSELF THE HYDROGEN ATTRACTS AN
ELECTRONEGATIVE ATOM ELECTOSTATICALLY. LAST OR
THE 4TH TYPE OF BOND IS THE METALLIC BOND, THE
POSITVE METAL IONS ATTRACTS CONDUCTION
ELECTRONS. SO AS FOR THEIR EXAMPLE FOR NUMBER 1,
IS WHEN THE SODIUM LOSES ONE ELECTRON TO
CHLORINE TO FORM SODIUM CHLORIDE THAT WE FOUND
IN OUR KITCHEN, THE TABLE SALT. FOR NUMBER 2
THERE WILL BE 2 EXAMPLE THE POLAR AND NON POLAR
BOND WHEREAS IN THE POLAR, THE OXYGEN WITH 6
ELECTRONS ATTRACT 2 MOLECULE OF HYDROGEN
WHERE THEY ONLY HAVE 1 ELECTRON EACH THAT WE
ALSO KNOWN AS PURE WATER. FOR THE NON POLAR,
THE OXYGEN WE BREATHE WHERE 2 OXYGEN ELEMENT
COMBINED TO FORM OXYGEN MOLECULE. THE 3RD IS
THE 2 SAME PURE SUBSTANCES IS COMBINED TO FORM
GREATER AMOUNT OF THE SUBSTANCE WHERE AS WE
CAN PUT WATER IN ANY CONTAINER WITHOUT MIXING
IT BECAUSE THEY ARE THE SAME SUBSTANCE. 4TH IS A
SOLID BOND WHEREAS ATOM IS TIGHTLY PACKED OR
COMBINED TOGETHER THAT FORM A METALLIC
SUBSTANCE THUS EFFECIVE FOR ELECTRICITY TO FLOW
AS THE COPPER WIRE SHOWS. THEN PROCEEDING O THE
NEXT PART OF THE LESSON PROFESSOR EISHA
DISCUSSED TYPES OF MIXTURE AND WAYS TO SEPARATE
MIXTURE. ALSO, UPON DISCUSSING THE WAYS AND
TYPES, I THOUGHT OF NUMEROUS ACTIVITIES FOR MY
FUTURE STUDENTS WHEREAS IT IS FUN AND SAFE TO
EXPERIMENT WITH, I WILL MAKE THEM BRING
KITCHEN MATERIALS OR A MAGNET WHEN TACKLING
MIXTURE, THEN WHEN IT COMES TO TECHNICAL PART I
WILL LET THEM WATCH VIDEOS.
