Sublimation template
Premium template. Preview and edit it free in MolDraw; downloading and exporting it is part of MolDraw Pro.
CBSE / NCERT class 9, GCSE / high school separation: a mixture of ammonium chloride and common salt heated in a china dish on a tripod and gauze, under an inverted funnel with a cotton plug in its stem.
What the template shows
- Separate a solid that sublimes (ammonium chloride, camphor) from one that does not
- Cotton plug
- Stops the vapour escaping from the stem
- Inverted funnel
- The vapour turns straight back to solid (the sublimate) on its cool inner wall; a damp cloth round it helps
- China dish
- NH₄Cl + NaCl mixture; NaCl is left behind
- Wire gauze on a tripod
- Bunsen burner
- Heat gently, in a fume cupboard: NH₄Cl ⇌ NH₃ + HCl, which recombine as white solid on the funnel
- Reaction setup
Drawn with 13 shapes – every one editable in MolDraw.
