The student attended a chemistry lab on September 11th where they experimented with physically separating different types of mixtures. They identified homogenous mixtures like salty water and heterogenous mixtures like sand and iron. Through various techniques such as heating salty water, using magnets, filtering, and decantation, the student was able to separate the components of mixtures and successfully accomplish their goal of learning practical separation methods.

On the 11th of September 2023, in the chemistry lab, we
decided to experiment on the physical ways of separating mixtures. I believe it was a fruitful experience. First, we had to know the type of mixture to move forward. Homogenous mixtures such as salty water and heterogenous mixtures such as sand and iron had different ways of separating mixtures. We accomplished our goal: heating up salty water, which decreases the solubility of salt; using a magnet to take iron out of sand and iron; using filter paper to take sand out of water; and decantation of relatively dense water and less dense oil. We had a successful experiment. We learnt the ways of physically separating mixtures practically.
