Lesson 3 How are chemical properties

used?

chemical properties can be used to:

1. separate mixtures & substances

2. separate elements from solutions

ore• rock that include metals combined with

other substances

ex. iron ore- when heated produces pure iron & CO2

2FeO + C 2Fe + CO2

iron oxide + carbon iron + carbon dioxide

What kind of reaction is this?

acids & bases

acids & bases

• have chemical properties to help identify them

• strong ones react more easily than weak ones

• chemicals react in universal indicator paper

flame test• material heated to high temp. in flame

• different substances cause different color flames

lithium copper
