Today in chemistry, we did an experiment on Filtration. Filtration is - Separating different sized particles out of mixture.
Aim - Our aim for today's experiment is to make a mixture, and then separate the two chemicals, through filtration.
Equipment's that were included in the experiment:
- Glasses for safety
- 200ml beaker to pour in the copper sulphate
- Stirring rod to stir the two chemicals together
- Funnel to transport the liquid into the beaker
- Conical flusk
- Filter paper
- Copper sulphate
Method:
- Pour approximately 50ml of copper sulphate solution into a beaker.
- Add some volume of sodium carbonate solution. A reaction will happen, you should see a cloudy blue precipitate form. Called copper carbonate.
- Watch demo, then fold the filter paper inside the funnel.
- Place the funnel paper inside of it, into the mouth of a conical flask
- Stir the mixture in the beaker, then carefully pour it into the funnel.
