METHODS OF SEPARATING MIXTURES EXPERIMENT
Purpose of the Experiment
The aim of this laboratory experiment was to separate homogeneous mixtures by the use
of physical means of separation which include vacuum filtration, gravity filtration and
purification of compound using crystallization method. Therefore, the experiment was divided
into the following parts; Theoretical part, Experiment procedure, Results and discussion are
made then finally a conclusion of the whole experiment.
Theoretical part
The big question was whether bottled water is better and safer than tap water. From
studies done it was revealed that the bottled water possessed some chemicals which have the
ability to harm the human being’s hormones (Armarego & Chai, 2013). This study showed that
there is need to determine what consumers drink. A part from the chemical contaminant
concerns, the production and shipment of plastic bottled water from place to another results to
global warming and many other kinds of air pollution. Millions of barrels of crude oil are used in
the production of bottled water and these have a serious effect to the environment as well.
Disposal of the plastic bottles after use have a big impact to the environment pollution as
most of them are left as unclaimed trash or sent to landfills instead of being recycled (Ault,
1998). Therefore, it is advisable to drink tap water instead of bottled water since the scientific
researchers suggest that bottled water is environmentally unfriendly. However, not many
consumers trusts tap water from their faucets until it’s proven ...
