    Title: Lab #3 Separation of a Mixture of Solids Purpose: To understand the different separation methods and techniques that depend on the chemical properties of a specific substance. Also to become more comfortable with performing those actions of separation so I have them in the future. For this experiment, I will separate a mixture of four distinct substances: sodium chloride, benzoic acid, silicon dioxide, and iron fillings into pure beings. Procedure: Materials: distilled water coffee

    151-50 Fall 2013 Lab report Isolating the Components of a Three Component Mixture The purpose of this experiment was to separate the component of three mixtures sand, sodium chloride and calcium carbonate then calculate the percentage by mass of each component recovered from the mixture. The other purpose of this experiment was to show us the students the concepts associated with physical and chemical properties of substances. Me and my lab partner, obtained a mixture of a un known proportion

    Abstract: One mixture of two unknown liquid compounds and one mixture of two unknown solid compounds were separated, isolated, purified, and characterized by boiling point. Two liquid unknowns were separated, isolated, and purified via simple distillation. Then, the process of an acid-base extraction and washing were used to separate two unknown compounds into two crude compounds: an organic acid and a neutral organic compound. Each crude compound was purified by recrystallization, resulting in a

    Fritted glass funnels are commonly used in chemistry labs. They have porous glass at the bottom that traps solids and allows liquids to pass through. Filter paper in a glass funnel will catch the solids and allow you to isolate a pure sample, sodium chromate in this case, that was formed during a chemical reaction. After the solid is separated from the liquid it is allowed to dry so any liquid stuck to the substance will just evaporate away and you are left with a pure substance. Distillation is

    MYP Chemistry, Period 4 Marian Walker September 29, 2016 Separation Design Lab Criterion A A.i) A mixture is defined as a combination of two or more substances that are not chemically combined. A mixture that has a uniform composition and uniform properties throughout it is known as a homogeneous mixture. One example of a homogeneous mixture is air. Air is a homogeneous mixture of gases. Another example of a homogeneous mixture can be seen when you mix a spoonful of table salt or sugar into a

    The objective of this lab was to separate a mixture that consisted of elements and compounds. There are seven ways to separate a mixture which included paper chromatography, filtration, evaporation, simple distillation, fractional distillation, magnetism, and separating funnel. The only methods used in this lab were filtration, evaporation, magnetism, and separating funnel. The method of magnetism was used when the magnet was moved under the mixture to separate the iron. The process of filtration

    Separations of Mixture of Solids The Purpose: To learn about the separation techniques that are based on the chemical properties of a substance. Observe the separation of the mixtures and their component substances. Learning how to compute the percentage a component makes up of the overall mix. The mixture contains iron filling, sand, benzoic acid, and table salt. From the visual observation of the mixture, it looks like it has a large amount of benzoic acid crystals compared to the others. Procedure:

    reaction, such as observing that a reaction results in a color change. There are chemical changes that separate cations and physical separations, such as decanting, where liquid is poured from a solid-liquid mixture, leaving the solid behind. Centrifuging is another separation technique, where a solid is separated from a liquid by whirling the mixture at high speed. A mixture of metal ions in a solution can be separated by a reaction of precipitation and in this experiment, the metal cations of aluminum

    Background: Mixtures are combinations pure substances, thus their physical properties depend on their composition. Physical properties of a pure substance include solubility, conductivity, and magnetism. By exploiting unique properties of mixtures, it is possible to divide the mixture into its components. This is done by physical change, such as filtration, evaporation, and crystallization. Purpose: The purpose of this experiment is to study the physical properties of salt, sand, and iron and use
