Module 4 2020/21

Tutor Group: _________

Make sure this knowledge organiser is brought into school every day!

How to use your knowledge organisersKnowledge organisers contain the most fundamental knowledge for the topics you are studying. You are required to study and quiz yourself on a section of your knowledge organiser for at least 20 minutes each evening to make sure you have the knowledge ready to use in lessons and for assessments. Many knowledge organisers contain lots of information and therefore you may need to start by mastering a small section first before moving on to another. It’s important that you revisit sections you have already studied again to make sure you can still remember it - this is called ‘spaced practice’ and enhances your knowledge retention.

How to ‘quiz’ using the knowledge organiser

When quizzing yourself, one method you can use is ‘look, say, cover, write, check’. You could also transfer information to flash cards with a question/keyword on the front and the answer/definition on the back. You can then quiz yourself using these. You could also ask someone that you live with or your friends to help quiz you on the knowledge contained in your knowledge organisers.

Remember to bring your knowledge organisers to school every day! Your teachers may get you to use them in lessons to support with your learning and they will also point out which sections to focus on when using them at home.

Middleground: In-between the background and the foreground.

Foreground: At the very front of the image.

2.1

Sequential Art shows events happening in a sequence. This is the way that a Comic Book communicates what is happening in the storyline. A Comic Book uses panels to show the passing of time.

2.2

Proportion or ratio is the relationship between the size of one element an the size of another.

2.3

You can use an eye as a measurement to draw a face in proportion. The width of the face is 5 eyes wide and the height of the face is between 6 and 7.

2.6

The chain and ball method is a technique which uses circles and chains to connect each part of the body together. It is a good way to measure proportions.

2.5

Comic Books are a way of communication. Consider what each photograph means or represents within your comic. Have you communicated the feelings and emotions of the characters into the work through facial expressions or body language? What about what the characters are wearing?

A figure is generally between 6&7 heads tall. A face is usually between 6&7 eyes tall.

HTML

HyperText Markup Language (HTML) is the standard markup language used to create web pages. A web page designed in HTML has to follow a certain structure in order to be properly interpreted by the browser.

Head elementThe head element allows web site designers to:

● Add a title element for the web page● Include metadata that can be accessed by

search engines and browser software● Include links that can be used to access icons,

CSS files and JavaScript files

Title

The title tags <title>…</title> will contain the title of the webpage. This title appears as text at the top of the browser window, usually as a tab title on modern browsers.







Metadata

While titles do appear on screen and are visible to users, everything else contained within the head section is hidden from users. Metadata means data about data, in the case of a webpage, data about the webpage.

Sample meta tags

Description

<meta name="description" content="Higher Computing Science ISDD revision">

Body element

The body element of the page begins with ˂body˃ and ends with ˂/body˃. This section will contain the main content of the web page. All HTML code for text, images, video, audio and user links to files and pages are found within the body of the page.

The list below shows some more common HTML elements used within the body of the page, each element has content added by way of exemplification:

Heading

<h1˃Welcome to BBC Bitesize˂/h1>

Used to create a heading on the page. There are six different heading sizes, so the number 1 could be replaced with 2, 3, 4, 5 or 6.

Paragraph

IB Sciences

Y8 Science Knowledge OrganiserUnit 9 - Separation Techniques

Definitions

1 Element A substance made up of only one type of atom

2 Compound A substance made of atoms of different elements chemically bonded together

3 Molecule A collection of atoms chemically bonded together

4 Mixture Different atoms or molecules together but not chemically bonded - easy to separate

5 Pure substance

A substance made of the same particles throughout

6 Solvent A liquid in which a solute can dissolve

7 Solute Substance dissolved in a solvent

8 Solution A mixture formed when a substance is dissolved in a liquid

9 Insoluble A substance that cannot dissolve in a solvent

10 Solubility The amount of substance that will dissolve in 100g of water

11 Filtration A process used to separate large insoluble particles from a liquid / smaller particles

12 Crystallisation Separating a solute from a solution using evaporation

13 Distillation Separating a mixture through evaporation and condensation

14 Potable water Drinking water

Recall Questions

1 How can a heating/cooling curve show when a substance is pure?

Pure substances have a sharp melting point (represented by a horizontal line)

2 What happens when a substance dissolves?

The solute is surrounded by the solvent so it becomes mixed

3 What do we call a solution in which no more solute will dissolve?

Saturated solution

4 How does temperature affect the solubility of a substance?

The higher the temperature the higher the solubility

Keywords & Spellings

dissolve distillation filtration chromatography

insoluble residue saturated solubility

solute solvent filtrate solution

temperature mixture compound separate

Recall Questions (continued)

5 What is a filtrate? The solution or liquid that passes through the filter paper

6 What is the residue? The insoluble substance that is left in the filter paper after filtration

7 How does filtration separate mixtures?

The filter paper traps larger insoluble particles

8 What is chromatography? A process that separates different liquids e.g. the pigments in coloured ink

9 What is the mobile phase in chromatography?

The solvent

10 What is the stationary phase in chromatography?

The chromatography paper

11 How can you identify a pure substance in chromatography?

There will only be one spot

12 How can you identify an insoluble substance in chromatography?

The spot will stay on the start line

13 How do you calculate the Rf value?

Distance moved by spot ÷ distance moved by the solvent

14 How can you identify identical substances from a chromatogram?

The spots on the chromatogram will be at the same height

15 What are the stages to make waste or ground water potable?

Sedimentation, filtration, chlorination

A cooling curve for a pure substance

The temperature stays the same whilst the pure substance changes state

A cooling curve for a impure substance

The temperature changes slightly as the impure substance changes state
