3. 3 This process is used to separate magnetic objects e.g. iron, steel, nickel, cobalt from non-magnetic ones in a mixture, e.g. separating iron filings and sulfur powder. Magnetic Attraction

4. 4 1. Electromagnets are used to remove steel and iron scrap at the junk-yard. 2. In hospitals, magnets are often used to remove iron splinters from a patient’s eyes. Applications of Magnetic Attraction

5. 5 Filtration This process is used to separate insoluble solids from the liquid in a solid-liquid mixture, e.g. separating sand from a mixture of sand and water. The insoluble solid that remains on the filter paper is called residue. The liquid that passes through is called the filtrate.

7. 7 Evaporation to dryness is a process used to separate a dissolved solid that does not decompose on heating, e.g. common salt from a salt solution Evaporation to dryness is a process used to separate a dissolved solid that does not decompose on heating from a solution, e.g. common salt from a salt solution Evaporation to dryness

8. 8 1.Pour the solution into an evaporating dish. 2.Heat the solution to dryness to evaporate away the solvent, leaving behind the solute. 3.Make the Bunsen flame smaller when almost all the solvent has been evaporated away to reduce spitting. 1.Pour the solution into an evaporating dish. 2.Heat the solution to dryness to evaporate away the solvent, leaving behind the solute. 3.Make the Bunsen flame smaller when almost all the solvent has been evaporated away to reduce spitting.

10. 10 Distillation is a process used to separate a liquid(solvent) from a solid-liquid solution or liquid-liquid solution. Pure water can be distilled from a soft drinks Distillation is a process used to separate a liquid(solvent) from a solid-liquid solution or liquid-liquid solution.

18. 18 Chromatography is a process used to separate the different components in a liquid or gaseous mixture. Chromatography is a process used to separate the different components in a liquid or gaseous mixture. For example it can be used to: 1.Separate the different coloured components that make up black ink 2.Detect tiny amounts of drugs or certain other chemicals in urine samples Chromatography is a process used to separate the different components in a liquid or gaseous mixture.

27. 27 Using a Separating Funnel two immiscible liquids A separating funnel can be used to separate two immiscible liquids, such as oil and water.

28. 28 Sublimation solid which sublimes when heated This method is used to separate a solid which sublimes when heated. Common substances which can sublime include iodine, dry ice, mothballs (napthalene) and ammonium chloride. A mixture containing ammonium chloride and sodium chloride can be separated using this method.

29. 29 Techniques in obtaining Pure Water from Sea Water Method 1 Distillation of sea water. Method 2 Desalination of sea water by Reverse Osmosis

30. 30 Reverse Osmosis

31. 31 Reverse Osmosis not the dissolved saltsThe partially permeable membrane in the diagram normally allows water to pass through easily but not the dissolved salts in the sea water. This flow of water is called osmosis.

32. 32 Reverse Osmosis When a high pressure (about 26 times more than atmospheric pressure) is applied on sea water, the direction of flow reverses. It means water starts flowing from the sea water side to the fresh water side of the membrane. This process is called reverse osmosis, thus allowing fresh water to be obtained from sea water.
