Ask: What are the materials used in separating the salt mixture based on the
video presented?
The teacher will introduce the instruments used in doing the experiment
1. EXPERIMENT ON
SEPARATING MIXTURES THROUGH EVAPORATION
Objective:
1. Separating sand and salt mixture
Materials:
▼ 250 cm3 Beaker
▼ Filter funnel and paper
▼ Evaporating dish
▼ Tripod
▼ Bunsen burner
▼ Gauze
▼ Glass rod for stirring.
Procedure:
1. Mix about 5 g of the mixture with 50 cm3 of water in a 250 cm3 beaker. Stir gently.
2. Filter the mixture into a conical flask and pour the filtrate into an evaporating basin.
3. Heat the salt solution gently until it starts to ‘spit’. Care: do not get too close. 4. Turn
off the Bunsen burner and let the damp salt dry.
Abstraction
(5 minutes) What is evaporation?
Evaporation is the slow changing of a liquid into a gas when particle vaporize
The water that evaporates is called Water Vapor and the remains is the
Residue
5. Assessment 1. Explain how you could separate mixture of gravel, iron filings and salt.
9 minutes
2. How helpful is separating mixtures through evaporation be beneficial to our
daily needs?
