Chemistry t1 l1/5 STUDY PLAY aqueous A mixture consists of sand and an aqueous salt solution Which procedure can be used to separate the sand salt and water from each other Salt water is a mixture because the proportion of its components can vary Sand and salt are poured into a single beaker the result is a mixture because they are not chemically combined When water is added to the sand salt mixture salt dissolves in water and sand does not When the liquid is poured through a filter salt water passes through the filter

Weigh sand and salt mixture with electronic scale and record mass 2 Pour the mixture in the beaker and add water weigh and record mass 3 Stir mixture until you believe salt has dissolved approx 5 10 seconds 4 Put mixture aside and set up filtering apparatus as shown in figure a figure aSeparation of a Salt/Sand Mixture Lab Partner When water is added to a mixture of salt and sand the salt dissolves but the sand does not The mixture can then be separated by a simple filtration Neither the salt nor the sand has been chemically changed LAB Separation of a Mixture Author Lou Casagrande Created Date

The cornstarch water mixture and real quicksand are both examples of non Newtonian fluids because their viscosity changes when stress or a force is applied not when heat is applied What is quicksand really Quicksand is nothing more than a soupy mixture of sand and water where the sand is literally floating on waterIt is important to understand that once the mix starts to set it cannot be re mixed because it will reduce the mortar s strength Also if too much water is added to the mix it affects the chemical composition of the mortar reducing its strength and potentially causing problems in the future

LAB SEPARATION OF A MIXTURE Because a mixture is a physical combination of materials the components may be separated using physical chang There are different ways of FILTRATE clear salt water solution 5 Pour the sand/salt water mixture into the funnel Collect the filtrate Mar 10 32 Filter the sand/salt/water mixture to separate the sand from the salt water Boil the salt water in a still until dry and condense the water vapors You now have sand distilled water and salt The distilled water and salt are pure but the wet sand will have a little salt in it

because their physical properties did not change when they were mixed together 3 Introduce the concept of a mixture A mixture is formed when two or more substances are combined but those substances are not changed The components of a mixture such as the marbles sand and water Sugar dissolves and is spread throughout the glass of water The sand sinks to the bottom The sugar water is a homogenous mixture while the sand water is a heterogeneous mixture Both are mixtures but only the sugar water can also be called a solution Can anything be in a Solution Pretty much Solutions can be solids dissolved in liquids

It is important to understand that once the mix starts to set it cannot be re mixed because it will reduce the mortar s strength Also if too much water is added to the mix it affects the chemical composition of the mortar reducing its strength and potentially causing problems in the futureUse enough water to completely submerge the sand salt mixture Sciencing Video Vault Stir or shake the mixture for a few minutes so that the salt dissolves in the water

Sand shaken up in a bottle of water is a heterogeneous mixture of sand particles floating around which will eventually settle to the bottom of the bottle making it look a lot less like a mixtureAug 02 32 To separate sand and salt start by pouring the sand and salt mixture into a pan Then add just enough water to cover the mixture Heat the mixture over medium heat on a stovetop which will cause the salt to dissolve in the water Once the salt has completely dissolved pour the mixture through a strainer to separate the sand and salt water

A heterogeneous mixture is a mixture of two or more chemical substances elements or compounds Examples are mixtures of sand and water or sand and iron filings a conglomerate rock water and oil a portion salad trail mix and concrete not cement A mixture of sand and iron filings can be separated by magnet Salt and sand can be separated by solution sand will not dissolve in water salt will Helium can be separated from a mixture with hydrogen by combustion this is a very dangerous operation since hydrogen in

Why would sand and water be an example of a heterogeneous mixture Select all that apply Chemical bonds are formed between the sand and water The mixture does not have a uniform appearance The mixture does not maintain a uniform composition The sand stays suspended in the waterUse a ratio of 3 parts sand to 15 parts cement Adding hydrated lime to the mixture will reduce shrinkage cracks It will also make the mortar more waterproof If you add lime the mixture will be 15 gallons of sand 638 gallons of cement and 112 gallons of lime Mix the ingredients together before adding water

trail mix mixture of peanuts raisins and chocolate candy dirt mixture of minerals small rocks sand and other materials ocean water mixture of salt and water air mixture of gases including oxygen carbon dioxide and nitrogen One important thing about a mixture Oil and water just don t mix but they do provide for some amazing hands on science Oil floats on the surface because water is heavier than oil Scientists say that water is more dense than oil This is why the oil always stays in the top container Discover and how hydrophobic products work Compare Magic Sand with regular sand and

Salt water is a mixture of NaCl and H2O Salt dissolve into water because the ion of the NaCl attract by the hydroden bond in the waterBut it is not reacting to the water to form any compounda Pour the sand salt mixture into the beaker so that it just covers the base b Add about 50 cm 3 of water or add water until the beaker is about one fifth full c Stir the mixture gently for a few minut d Filter the mixture into a conical flask e Pour the filtrate into an evaporating basin

PHYSICAL SEPARATION TECHNIQUES Introduction When two or more substances that do not react chemically are blended together EXTRACTION is the removal of one substance from a mixture because of its making sure that all the water and sand gets into the funnel 3 Drying of SiOActually sand is not a pure substance There is no chemical formula for sand as it is a mixture However the water if it is distilled is a pure substance with the chemica l formula of H 2 O The mixture of water and sand is a heterogeneous mixture because it is not the same throughout

Results First our group poured water to the 30 ml graduated cylinder Next our group poured water into the substance sand/salt and our group used a stirring rod to mix Then A paper cone was used as a filter and the water was poured into the 150 ml beaker Finally our groupFeb 23 32 boiling point density at stp freezing point solublity in water Mixture of sand and table salt can be separated by filtration because the substances in the mixture differ in boiling point density at stp freezing point
