ENGAGE
You have learned that mixtures can either be homogenous or
heterogenous depending on their appearance and the composition of
materials. In this lesson you are expected to demonstrate
understanding of the different techniques in separating mixtures such
as decantation, evaporation, filtering, sieving and using magnet.
Examine Figure 1 below. There are ways by which mixtures

must be separated to make them available and help us in our daily
activities.
What are some benefits that we can derive from the different
mixtures around us? In what ways can these mixtures be separated to

make them useful in our daily life?
EXPLORE
With the assistance of your family members/teacher, read the
procedures below. Perform what is being asked in each task.
ACTIVITY

 09156007622/09613295689
Guide Questions:
1. What are the techniques in separating mixtures?
2. What are examples of mixtures that can be separated through
decantation, filtration, sieving, evaporation and using magnet?
2 EXPLAIN
The use of magnet is useful in mining iron and in many process
industries to remove metal contaminants from product streams. In
our community, waste are segregated for the utilization of
biodegradable and
non-biodegradable materials. Separating mixtures remove unwanted
materials, thus making these materials available for utilizing them
for differrent purposes.
A mixture of solute and solvent may be allowed to stand to let
the undissolved substance to settle at the bottom of the container.
Then the liquid may be poured slowly to leave the solid particles.
This method is known as decantation. Other materials that can be
 09156007622/09613295689
separated by this method are oil and water, and the mixture of
kerosene and water.
Another way of separating mixtures is by evaporation. Applying
heat will cause the liquid in a mixture to evaporate leaving the other
component/
substance behind.
Evaporation is a technique used to separate homogeneous mixtures
where there is one or more dissolved substance. The method drives
off the liquid components from the solid components.
The process typically involves heating the mixture until liquid
evaporates into water vapor. There are many ways by which
evaporation take place in our community or at home.
The drying of wet clothes under the heat of the sun is caused by
the evaporation of water molecules, thus caused the drying of clothes
.
The cooling of hot milk or tea was caused by the evaporation of
hot molecules on the surface, thus it becomes just enough for
drinking.
When cooking rice or heating foods, evaporation takes place that
caused changes in the materials. Be cautious when cooking, extreme
heat will cause immediate evaporation of liquid in materials, and if
left unattended, this will cause fire.
The aromatic coffee is separated from its granules by filtration.
Filtration is the process of separating an insoluble solid from the
liquid substance by allowing the liquid to pass through a porous
material. The porous material is usually a filter
paper. The method of separation applies only to suspensions because
solute and colloidal particles are too small to be retained on the filter
paper. In this process, the filter paper allows the liquid to pass
 09156007622/09613295689
through it and retains the solid particles. The solid is called the
residue, while the liquid is called the filtrate.
In a mixture of grains of sand in water, the grains of sand
cannot pass through the cheesecloth. Grains of sand separates from
the water when it passes through the cheesecloth. This method of
separating
mixtures is called filtration. In filtration, solutions or gases pass

through the filter but particles which cannot fit through the filter are
trapped by it. An example of this is to filter a mixture of pepper and
water. In the laboratory, filtration is carried out using filter paper but
we also use filtration at home like when tea strainers, face mask and
food strainer are used.
In common language, when a sieve (salaan) is used, this
method is known as sieving.. An example of this is when coconut
milk is separated from the grated coconut meat. Smaller particles
when mixed with other materials tend to settle at the bottom leaving
the larger materials in a strainer. Another ex-
ample of sieving is when a strainer is used to separate gravel and
sand in a construction site .
The sand will pass through easily the strainer, and the gravel
left in the sieve. At home, cooked pasta is separated from water by
using a strainer. In the kitchen or in a bathroom, you will see some
pieces of materials or hairs trapped in strainer. This will prevent
hairs and other waste materials to clog in the sink or in the drainage .
Separating mixture by using a magnet maybe used to separate
mixtures when one of its components is magnetic like iron filings
and small nails. Mechanical separation involves the use of tools such
as magnets, forceps and sieves to separate solids that are mixed
 09156007622/09613295689
together.
The magnetic material is attracted by the magnet, leaving the
non-magnetic material behind. The substances that are not soluble
and mixed with solutes maybe separated by sieving or filtration.
The use of magnet to separate metal materials is useful in
mining iron as iron is attracted to a magnet. In many industries, this
method of separating mixtures is economical and environmentally
sound practice as this method remove metal contaminants from
product stream.
Separating mixtures are very helpful at home. Depending on the
appearance of the materials and their uses, mixtures are separated .
