Mixture Experiment

On Friday i did a mixture lab. This is how you separate a mixture.

1. Take out the plastic fly with the spoon.
2. Filter the water through the filter paper and put it in the big beaker. Put it on the bunson burner.
3. Now, spoon out all of the lima beans with the plastic spoon and put them on the tray.
4. Next, spoon out the toothpicks and put them on the tray.
5. Put the magnet in the cup with the sand in it and get all the magnets out!
6. Take the water off the bunson burner (hopefully it will be evaporated) and what is left is salt.

The 7 items are- lima beans, toothpicks, a plastic fly, water, sand, magnets, and salt!
