(3) Research how to separate the following mixtures:
(i) Pure water from sea water
(ii) Ethanol and water
(iii) Oil and water
(a) Make an oral or video presentation to your teacher of your findings. Your
presentation must not be more than 10 minutes long and you will not be allowed to
use any notes! (TOTAL MARKS:22)
Your presentation MUST include the following for EACH mixture:
(i) The name of the separation method used and why you chose it (the physical
properties on which the separation method is based) (6 marks)
(ii) A description of the process of separating the mixture with the aid of a large,
labelled diagram (to be done on Bristol board). (4+4+4=12 marks -*2 marks
for each diagram and 2 marks for adequate coverage of each process)
Also note that in addition to the content above presented, you will also be marked on
quality of presentation- speaking clearly and group member participation.
(3 marks)
(b) Complete and submit the STEM self-evaluation rubric to your teacher. (1 mark)
(4) You are provided with a mixture of sand and salt from your teacher.
(i) Plan and design an experiment to separate the mixture. (5 marks for method)
(ii) At home or in the lab, carry out the method of separation that your group
designed. Record any relevant observations. Present evidence of your separation
of the different components to your teacher (1 mark).
(iii) Write a one/two-page lab report on your experiment under the following headings
– date (1), title (1), aim (1), apparatus (2), materials (2) method (now in the past
tense and any mention of volumes employed – 2 marks), observations (3) and
discussion/conclusion (8). Your discussion/conclusion must state the methods of
separation used and why (4), explanation of your observations and any key terms
identified (4). (20 marks)

(v) Research how to calculate Rf values (text books, YouTube or ask an Upper
School Chemistry student for assistance). Complete and submit the Rf and
analysing chromatograms worksheet. You will need a calculator. (20 marks –
write answers on this handout)
(vi) Using the following materials, design an experiment to separate the colours in a
black ink pen: water soluble black ink pen, ruler, pencil, drinking glasses,
scissors, filter paper or coffee filter, water, popsicle sticks or pencils, tape or
binder clips. (5 marks for method)
(vii) Carry out the experiment. Record observations of coloured components.
Construct a table of results for distances travelled by each component. Calculate
the Rf values. Submit your chromatogram to your teacher as evidence (1).
(viii) Write a one/two-page lab report on your experiment under the following headings
– date (1), title (1), aim (1), apparatus (2), materials (2) method (now in the past
tense and any mention of measuring distances – 2 marks), observations (of
colours recorded – 1 mark), results – table of distances travelled in cm (2) and
discussion/conclusion (8). Your discussion/conclusion must explain your
observations (6) and show calculations of Rf values (2).
