Science Lesson Week 2 and 3

The document discusses 5 main techniques for separating mixtures: decantation, filtration, sieving, evaporation, and using magnets. It provides examples of how each technique can be used, such as using decantation to separate oil and water, filtration to separate insoluble solids from liquids, and sieving to separate items like rice grains from small pebbles. The document also includes a quiz and hands-on activity to help understand separating mixtures.

Separating Mixtures

How to separate the following


mixtures??
Separating Mixtures
WAYS OF SEPARATING MIXTURES

Handpicking Use of Magnet Decantation

• Is a technique used • Is useful in mining • Is a technique used


in separating solid iron and in many in separating a
components of a process industries less-dense
heterogenous to remove metal substance from a
mixture. contaminants from denser one.
• Example: tiny product streams
stones are
separated from rice
grains using hands.
WAYS OF SEPARATING MIXTURES

Evaporation Filtration Sieving

• Is a technique • Is the process • Is the


used to of separating an commonly used
separate insoluble solid filtration at
homogenous from the liquid home by the
mixtures where substance by used of
there is one or allowing the “salaam” or
more dissolved liquid to pass sieve.
substances. through a
porous material.
WAYS OF SEPARATING MIXTURES

Distillation

• Is the process of
separating
liquids from a
solution.
• It is used in
producing pure
water, distilled
water or ethanol.
Let’s get
to know
them
one by
one!
Hypothesis
Handpicking

Will separate the


tiny stones such
that the rice
grains would be
safer to continue.
Use of Magnet

Metals are
attracted to the
magnet while
nonmetals are
not.
Decantation

The liquid may be


poured slowly to
leave the solid
particles. Oil and
water also can be
separated through
this method.
Evaporation

Applying heat will


cause the liquid in a
mixture to evaporate
leaving the other
component/substance
behind
Filtration

In this process, the filter


paper allows the liquid to
pass through it and retains
the solid particles.
Residue the solid
substance
Filtrate the liquid substance
Sieving

An example also at
home is when coconut
milk is separated from
the grated coconut
milk.
Distillation

The separation technique is


based on the differences of the
boiling point of the substances
in the mixture. The mixture is
heated. The substance with
the lowest boiling point boils to
vapor and condenses to liquid.
Quiz Time!

• Learning Task 1: Identify the method by which the given mixtures will be separated. Choose
the word of the correct answer inside the box. Write your answers on a separate sheet of
paper.

1. Water in cloth 6. oil and water


2. Needle and flour 7. boiled pasta
3. Different beans 8. rice grains and small pebbles
4. Muddy water 9. pins and wooden clips
5. Pebbles and water 10. water turning into steam

Decantation filtration use of magnet


Sieving evaporation handpicking
Learning Task 2:

• Write the letter in Column B that corresponds to the statements in Column A.


Write your answer in your notebook.
COLUMN A COLUMN B
1. The liquid may be poured slowly to leave the solid particles. A. Decantation
2. A method in which two or more components of different sizes are B. Evaporation
C. Filtration
separated from a mixture on the basis of the difference in their D. Sieving
sizes. E. Using magnet
3. It is done by passing a suspension through a filter paper retains
the solid components of the mixture.
4. It is applying heat to cause the liquid in a mixture to evaporate
leaving the other component/substance behind.
5. It is the separation that involves the use of tools to separate metal
solids mixture together.
Performance Task
Instruction: With the assistance of your family members, read the procedures below. Perform what is being asked in
each task. Take a video and don’t forget to record your observation. Submit your video/s and the table.
Materials Needed Procedure Observation Technique in separating
(Observe what happen?) mixtures

1 cup of water, ½ cup of sand, 1. Mix the water and the sand
cheesecloth, 2 containers 2. Pass the mixture through a
cheesecloth

Wet rug, wooden table 1. Scrub the table using a wet


cloth or rug
2. Observe what happened to
the moist on the table after 3
to 5 minutes
3 tablespoons of rice grain, 4 1. Mix 3 tablespoons of rice
tablespoons of flour, plate, grains and 4 tablespoons of
container sieve/strainer flour in a plate.
2. Sift/sieve the mixture
1 cup of sand, 3 cups of water, 1. Mix 1 cup of sand to 3 cups of
small container water in a container.
2. Pour water from the glass.

Nails, coins, small rocks, magnet 1. Mix the nails, coins and small
rocks.
2. Use a magnet to separate the
mixture.
