Separation Techniques in Action

Students performed filtrations followed by evaporation to separate a mixture of sulfur and salt.

Make a Plan!!!

On a separate piece of paper please propose a method to separate the following mixtures/substances. Your plan can be written out step by step or in paragraph form....

#1: Water and Isopropanol

#2: Sand and wood chips

#3: Water (I know this is a pure substance.....how would you pull apart the oxygen and hydrogen atoms, though???)

#4: Salt, water and sulfur.

Be prepared tomorrow to try some of your methods out!
