    Week 4-Separating Mixtures

    Uploaded by

    Katrina Reyes
    This document discusses different methods for separating mixtures without chemical changes. It describes mixtures as combinations of substances that do not chemically combine and can be separated physically. Six separation methods are outlined: magnetism, hand separation, filtration, sieving, extraction, and evaporation. Examples are provided for each to illustrate how the technique separates components of a mixture.

    Separating

    Mixtures
    What is a
    mixture?

    • two or more materials or


    substances that are mixed but
    do not chemically combine.
    • This means they retain their
    original properties.
    • This means they can be
    separated by physical means.
    What are the
    different ways of
    separating mixtures?

    • Magnetism
    • Hand separation
    • Filtration
    • Sifting or sieving
    • Extraction
    • Evaporation
    Magnetism
    If one component of the
    mixture has magnetic
    properties, you could use a
    magnet to separate the
    mixture. Iron, nickel, and
    cobalt are all materials that
    are magnetic.
    Example of magnetism
    Using a magnet to separate
    iron fillings from sand
    Hand separation
    • Separating the parts of
    a mixture by hand.
    • Only useful when the
    particles are large
    enough to be seen
    clearly.
    Example of hand separation:
    Using your fork to separate tomatoes, lettuce,
    cucumber, onions, etc. in your salad.
    Filtration
    • Used when separating a solid
    substance from a fluid (a liquid or a
    gas) by passing a mixture through a
    porous material such as a type of filter.
    • Works by letting the fluid pass through
    but not the solid.
    • Examples of filters: coffee filter, cloth,
    oil filter, even sand!
    Example of
    filtration:
    Using a coffee filter
    to separate the
    coffee flavor from
    the coffee beans.
    Sifting or Use to separate a dry mixture which
    contains substances of different

    sieving sizes by passing it through a sieve, a


    device containing tiny holes.
    Example of
    sifting/sieving:
    Using a sieve to
    separate sand
    from pebbles.
    Extraction

    • Used to separate an insoluble solid (something


    that doesn’t dissolve in a liquid) from a soluble
    solid. Done by adding a solvent to the mixture.
    Then pouring the liquid through a filter.
    • Pour water in the
    Example of mixture which causes
    extraction the sugar to dissolve
    • Then pouring the
    Mixture of solution through a
    sugar and filter, causing the sand
    sand to separate from the
    sugar water.
    Evaporation
    • Allowing the liquid to
    evaporate, leaving the
    soluble solid behind.
    • Example: heating
    sugar water. The
    water evaporates and
    the sugar crystals are
    left behind.
    Example of using Using water to dissolve
    extraction and sugar, then letting the
    evaporation water evaporate, leaving
    together: the sugar behind.
