Science filtering

Hi reader today in science we are learning about what is filtering and I will tell you some of the key word. We are also making a little experiment with filtering.

key work: 
Filtering is separating different sized particles out of a mixture. It can't dissolved if it's a same size.

Solute - sugar = solid was dissolved

Solvent - water = Liquid that does dissolving 

Solution  - mixture of two or things 

Experiment: 

Make a mixture then separate it. 

We are using is copper sulfate- light blue, liquid, transparent.

Sodium carbonate - colourless, liquid, translucent.

Equipment:

Sodium carbonate

Copper sulfate

Conical flask

Stirring Rod

200mL Beaker

Funnel

Filter paper

Hypothesis:

I think it will separate both of the liquid but I think it will still have a tint of blue in it.

Method: 

1. Pour approximately 50mL of copper sulfate solution into a beaker.

2. Add the same volume of sodium carbonate solution. A reaction will happen, you should see a cloudy blue precipitate form. Called copper carbonate. 

3. Watch demo then fold filter paper to fit inside the funnel

4. Place the funnel with the filter paper inside of it, into the mouth of a conical flask. 

5. Stir the mixture in the beaker, then carefully pour it into the funnel. 

6. Observe what happened.

Observations and Discussion: When we added the to liquiit went dark blue and when it went toghter the filter paper I had a little tint of blue and it had a blue sludge on top. We finish with copper carbonate ( blue sludge ).
