5th - Mixtures & Solutions

Our chemistry unit continues as the students applied their reading to a lab situation.

We investigated the make-up of various mixtures including some solutions.

Ask you student what are the main features of mixtures (not chemically combined, can be separated into its original parts).

The final test was for each table to devise a method to separate a mixture of iron filings, sand, and salt.

Ask your student how their table accomplished the task.

Next up we will look at chemical & physical change.
