Thus, each canbe thought of as having a full outershell of electrons.

It attracts electrons sostrongly that aluminum chloride is acovalen t com pou n d. It exists as Al 2Cl 6molecules in which two AlCl 3molecules are linked by coordinatebonds formed by the donation of lonepairs of electrons from two chlorineatoms.H+HHClClClAlAl● The© Diagram Visual Information Ltd.H3 Aluminum chloride4 Ionic compounds withcovalent characterions in a sodium chloride latticeare perfectly spherical. Thus the bondsin this compound are said to beperfectly ionic.● But in an ionic compound consistingof a small, highly charged positive ionand a large negative ion such aslithium iodide, the positive ion attractselectron charge away from thenegative ion.
The result is that thenegative ion becomes distorted, andelectron density becomesconcentrated between the ions,creating a bond similar to a covalen tbon d.

Particles in solutions arevery small and cannot be seen. Theparticles may be atoms, ions, ormolecules, and their diameters aretypically less than 5 nm. Salt dissolvesin water to form a clear colorlesssolution.● Many, but not, all ion ic com pou n dsare solu ble in water.● A small proportion of organiccompounds are soluble in water.However, organic compounds aregenerally more soluble in organicsolvents such as hexane and ethanol.2 Suspensions● A su spen sionwaterflourcloudy mixture with solidparticles in the liquidis a heterogeneousmixture of two components. Theparticles will settle out over a period oftime. Suspended particles havediameters that are typically 1,000 nmor more.● When flour is mixed with water, itforms a white suspension.
Tinyparticles of flour are suspended in thewater. The flour particles can befiltered off from the suspension.3 Emulsionsem u lsion is a colloidal dispersionof small droplets of one liquid inanother (See page 46).● When oil and water are mixed, theyform an emulsion. Oil is less densethan water and forms the upper layer.● Tiny oil droplets are suspended in thewater.
After a while, the oil dropletsjoin together, and two layers areformed.● The mixture of oil and water can beseparated using a separating funnel.wateroilcloudy mixtureforming an emulsionwhen shakenliquids separatewhen leftto stand© Diagram Visual Information Ltd.● AnProducing an emulsion46CHANGES IN MATTERKey wordsaerosolcolloidemulsionfiltrationfoamgelsolsolutionsuspensionColloids1 In AirColloids● A colloidis a substance made ofparticles whose size is intermediatebetween those in solu tion s andsu spen sion s.● The particles in a suspension have adiameter of typically 1,000 nm ormore.

Water boils at100°C and becomes water vapor.● A condenser consists of an inner tubesurrounded by a jacket of cold water.This jacket ensures that the inner tuberemains cool.● The vapor passes into the condenser,where it is cooled and changes backinto liquid.● The water runs out of the condenserand is collected in a second flask.● The salt remains in the roundbottomed flask.edgbFractional distillation of ethanolboiling point (°C)cfwater100ethanol7878°C79°C80°Cidejhbabcdefghijsea waterheat sourcethermometercondenser with cold watercold water incold water outdistillate of pure watersolution of alcohol and waterfractionating column of glass beadsdistillate of ethanol2 Fractional distillation● Fraction aldistillation is used toseparate components whose boilingpoints are similar.● Ethanol boils at 78°C and turns tovapor.
