Chemistry Evaporation
Hello, Readers!
Today I will be telling you guys what we are doing in Chemistry for this week, So for this week we are talking about Evaporation,
what is evaporation is when a substance gets heated up and it turns from liquid to gas.
Condensation is when you turn gas into a liquid by cooling it down.
what is Distillation is the scientific experiment used to show the processes of evaporation and condensation.
the aim is to use Distillation to separate out the dissolved sugars in coke or coke zero and to see what the liquid looks like after we separate the sugars.

Science Filtration
Hello, Readers!
Today I will be telling you guys what we are doing so today we are doing a Mini experiment about filtration. Filtering is about separating different particles and things and sizes. can all mixtures be filtered, no because all particles are the same sizes, now we are making a mixture and separating it, the liquid is copper sulfate it is light blue, the other one is sodium carbonate it is colourless it has no colour they are both liquids and they are both transpernt, at the end I think it is going to separate and I don't think it will still be the same colour I think it will both be very light blue.
The 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.
after we mixed them together they went dark cloudy blue and after that we mixed it and them slowly pored it in and it came out white first but then it slowly started changing back to very light blue and that was the resoulets.
what happened was when we added both of the liquids together they both turned into dark blue because it wasn't copper sulfate or sodium carbonate anymore it was copper cardonate.
