  1. Chemistry for Kids

    A mixture is a substance in which two or more substances are mixed but not chemically joined together, meaning that a chemical reaction has not taken place. Mixtures can be easily separated and the substances in the mixture keep their original properties. Imagine mixing skittles and full size marshmallows, the individual components (skittles ...

    Bookmark. The 'separating mixtures' chapter from That's Chemistry! This chapter looks at key ideas and activities that can be used to help students learn how sieving can separate particles of different sizes and other methods used for separating mixtures. These PDFs have been taken from the popular book, That's Chemistry! compiled by ...

  3. Separation of Mixtures Lab Activities for High School Chemistry

    Chromatography Lab. For this separation of mixtures lab, you'll only need a few materials. If you don't have what you need, you may be able to borrow from the art teacher in your school. You'll need water, beakers, pencils or stirring rods, tape, coffee filters (or nice funnel filters) and washable markers (they need to be water soluble).

  6. Separating mixtures

    A series of videos demonstrating various simple, fun practicals and demonstrations that you can use to teach separating mixtures. Each video shows how to carry out the demonstration and explains the science behind it. You don't need any specialist equipment - all of the demonstrations use things you can buy in a supermarket.

  7. Separation techniques

    In fact, most chemistry experiments have some sort of separation in them. Whilst some mixtures need more involved methods, often we can physically separate solids from a mixture with liquids. Have a go with your learners and try different mixtures and separation equipment, like coffee filter paper, different sized sieves, and tea strainer.

  8. Fun Experiments for Separating Mixtures

    Fun Filtering. In this experiment you will observe how rudimentary separating techniques are better suited for certain mixtures, while others require slightly higher technology. Mix uncooked rice, kidney beans and flour in a mixing bowl. Spread the mixture onto a large sheet of wax paper, and you'll notice that the beans are easy to see.

  9. EXPERIMENT 2: Separation of the Components of a Mixture

    Wrap a magnet in a piece of paper towel and use the magnet to pick out all of the iron filings from the mixture. Weigh the evaporating dish with the remaining solid. The loss in weight represents the amount of Fe in the sample mixture. Add 20 ml of water to the solid in the evaporating dish and stir gently for a couple of minutes.

    In this experiment, filter paper wet with water is your stationary phase and water is your solvent. Marker inks are your mixture of substances. Purpose: This experiment uses the differences in each substance's attraction to a stationary surface and solubility in a solvent to separate mixtures and identify the same substance in different mixtures.

  11. Separating Mixtures

    mixtures can be separated using various separation methods such filtration,separating funnel,sublimation,simple distillation and paper chromatography. The methods stated above are all physical methods. There are also chemical methods, which are used by rearranging the particles so a certain substance no longer exists (chemical reaction).

  12. Separating Mixtures

    Thanks to the physical properties of matter such as size, shape, and density, mixtures can also be separated back into their different kinds of matter. One way mixtures can be separated is through filtration. Filtration is the passing of matter through a filter to separate larger particles. Another way mixtures can be separated is through ...

  16. Separating Mixtures

    A mixture of sand and salt can be separated by mixing with water, filtering, and then evaporating. The salt dissolves in the water, the sand filters off and the water evaporates to leave the salt. Separating sand from salt. Hope you enjoy learning how mixtures can be separated into their different parts by using different methods.

    Lesson 5: Mysterious Mixtures Experiment. ESTIMATED TIME Setup: 5-10 minutes | Procedure: 10-15 minutes. DESCRIPTION. Separate mixed dyes into the different colors that make up the dye. OBJECTIVE. This lesson examines mixtures and demonstrates a separation process. Students will use food coloring and filter paper to observe the separation ...

  18. EXPERIMENT 7

    Not all mixtures of liquids obey Raoult's law, such mixtures; called azeotropes, mimic the boiling behavior of pure liquids. These mixtures when present at specific concentrations usually distill at a constant boiling temperature and cannot be separated by distillation. Examples of such mixtures are 95% ethanol-5% water (bp 78.1 °C).

    Mud, gravel and water. This works best in the clear soda bottle with the top cut off. Mix a handful of dirt, gravel, sand, grass, and water into the bottle. Separate them (including the water!) Sand and salt. This one calls for some tricky thinking. In a cup, mix together equal parts sand and salt. Separate them!
