A
  • The ink spreads in rings,
  • Each ring corresponds a component of ink
  • The farthest ring is the most soluble.
102
Q

How do you seperate sand,sawdust and salt.

A
  1. Put all the 3 components in water
    * Salt will dissolve in the water
    * Sawdust will float and
    * The sand settles down
    2.The salt solution and the saw dust is slowly decanted on a filter paper fixed in a funnel which is fixed to the beaker.
