A blend of crystals is to be separated into three fractions: a coarse one retained on a 8-mesh sieve, an intermediate one retained on a 14-mesh sieve, and a fine one passing through the 14-mesh sieve. The results from the screen analyses are listed in Table 3. Calculate the efficiency for each sieve in the fractionation of the crystals.

- 1. Determine the mass of the sample to the nearest 0.1 %.2. Dry the sample thoroughly in the sample container by means of the selected source ofheat, exercising care to avoid loss of any particles. Very rapid heating may cause someparticles to explode, resulting in loss of particles. Use a controlled temperature ovenwhen excessive heat may alter the character of the aggregate, or where more precisemeasurement is required. If a source of heat other than the controlled temperature oven isused, stir the sample during drying to accelerate the operation and avoid localizedoverheating. When using a microwave oven, stirring of the sample is optional.3. The sample is thoroughly dry when further heating causes, or would cause, less than 0.1% additional loss in mass.4.
