10 -22 -13 Separating Mixtures

1. Sorting Separating mixtures with your hands. Ex: separating pop corn kernels, black beans, & rice

2. Chromatography Separating colored mixtures. Ex: Black marker

3. Using a Magnet • Using the magnetic property of a substance to separate a mixture • Made of iron Ex: Iron Filings & pencil shavings

4. Dissolving a Substance Mixing substances in water to separate the one that dissolves. Ex: Sand & Sugar

5. Filtration • Separating by size • Allowing liquids or smaller items to pass through a filter, leaving a larger substance on the other side. Ex: sand & water; rocks & dirt

6. Evaporation/Boiling Separation by changing a liquid to a gas to leave behind a dissolved substance Ex:

Sand, Salt, Iron Filings Mixture Procedures for separation: (be very detailed) 1. Take out the iron filings with a magnet.

2. Pour the sand salt in water so that the salt will dissolve. 3. Use a filter to separate the salt water from the sand.

4. Evaporate the water out of the salt water which will leave the salt behind.
