Separating Mixtures (procedures)

Your objective is to separate all the mixtures into seven different objects.

1) First you take the filter paper and place it around the circumference of the funnel, that will drain the water, and leaves the rest over objects on top.

2) Then you take out the tooth picks, marble, and the beans.

3) Next you put a magnet and extract the iron from the cup, separating the iron from the sand.

4) Next we poured all the water from the graduated cylinder and moved it into the graduated beakers, then moved some of the water, or excess to the Erlenmeyer flask.

5) Next you put the water on the Bunsen burners. You then watch the water evaporate, leaving gooey particles, and my hypothesis is that it might be salt.

6) Lastly, clean up your station, and leave it clean as you saw if before, for the next class, or otherwise, follow the teacher's directions.


The 7 objects you have found should of been:
1) a marble
2) sand
3) iron
4) toothpicks
5) beans
6) a soft powdery substance (maybe salt)
