Separating Mixtures

What is a mixture? When two or more
materials or substances are mixed together but do not chemically combine.
This means they retain their original properties.
This means they can be separated by physical means.

Magnetism If one component of the mixture has
magnetic properties, you could use a magnet to separate the mixture. Iron, nickel, and cobalt are all materials that are magnetic.
Not all metals are magnetic: gold, silver, and aluminum are examples of metals that are not magnetic.

Example of magnetism Magnetic pulley removing metal
pieces from wood pile.

Hand separation Separating the parts of a mixture by
hand. Only useful when the particles are
large enough to be seen clearly. Useful for: organizing, categorizing,
grouping, recognizing patterns or trends

Example of hand separation: Using your fork to separate tomatoes,
lettuce, cucumber, onions, etc. in your salad.

Filtration Used when separating a solid substance from
a fluid (a liquid or a gas) by passing a mixture through a porous material such as a type of filter.
Works by letting the fluid pass through but not the solid.
Examples of filters: coffee filter, cloth, oil filter, even sand (earth’s natural filter)

Example of filtration: Using a coffee filter to separate the
coffee flavor from the coffee beans.

Sifting or sieving Used to separate a dry mixture which
contains substances of different sizes by passing it through a sieve, a device containing tiny holes.

Example of sifting/sieving: Using a sieve
to separate sand from pebbles.

Evaporation Used to separate the components of a
homogeneous mixture/solution. Solutions have a solute—the part that gets dissolved and a solvent—that part that does the dissolving. If the solution is heated, the solvent evaporates leaving the solute behind.

Example of evaporation: Using water to dissolve sugar, then letting the
water evaporate, leaving the sugar behind.

solution from each other.

Example of chromatography: Using chromatography paper to separate
ink into it’s original components. Helpful in crime scene investigations, drug analysis, and almost every aspect of science.
