Separating+Mixtures

=Methods of Separating Mixtures= media type="custom" key="3606428" > Separating mixtures is important at home (sieving flour, using a colander to separate water from pasta and using a pool filter for example) and in industries such as mining, water purification and at recycling facilities.After our experiments to evaporate the water from soft drink and create crystals from a filtered copper sulphate solution, we will have an assessment task - separating rice grains, salt, iron filings and sand from a mixture of these components. =Resources= media type="custom" key="3606384" [|Separating Mixtures PowerPoint] Here are some sites to help you learn more about separating mixtures: A worksheet to complete: [] Separating salt and sand: [] Separating iron from sand; [] S-cool: [] Bitesize Chemistry: [] DIGILEARN - [] DIGILEARN: [] CATALYST (video): [|Recycling water] CATALYST (video): [|Froth Flotation] Making water drinkable: [|[[http://www.eduweb.vic.gov.au/dlrcontent/4c33313938/index.htmlMaking|http://www.eduweb.vic.gov.au/dlrcontent/4c33313938/index.html]]] Making water drinkable (Mixtures): [|http://www.eduweb.vic.gov.au/dlrcontent/4c33313030/index.html]Making water drinkable (Water treatment): [] What the world is made of (Sorting matter): []
