BACKGROUND INFORMATION FOR TEACHERS
Magnetism is an invisible force that can attract (or repel) certain materials, such as iron and
steel. This force is called magnetic field and is created by magnets.
What is magnet? Magnets are objects made of magnetic materials that produce a magnetic
field. Magnets pull other objects made of magnetic materials towards them. They will either
attracts or repel other magnets.
involves using a magnet to attract another magnetic object away from the substance it is in.
Some examples of separating magnetic substances from no magnetic substances are: separating
iron nails from glass chippings and separating iron paper clips from saw dusts. Magnetic
separators are used in factories. Materials are put on a conveyor belt that is spun by magnetic
wheels. As the objects are moved upside down the non-magnetic objects fall off and the
magnetic ones stay on. This separation technique can also be useful in mining as it is attracted
to a magnet. Moreover, magnetic separator is also used in milling. It removes metal species in
wheat, in order to ensure safety at work. To remove metal content from wheat to protect other
machines safety. And to remove metal powder mixed in flour during milling process and to
ensure product purity, magnetic separation is needed before finished product packaging.

3. Take the pan off the heat. Pour in about ¼ - ½ cup (60-120ml) of your salt and
stir until the water is clear. If you don’t see any salt grains in the water, stir in
another spoonful. Keep stirring more salt until you see salt grains that won’t
dissolve when you stir.
5. Get a pencil or a stick. Make sure that they should be long enough to lie across
the top of a jar. Tie a string around a pencil/stick. Cut the string to the correct

6. Move the jar to safe place. Keep the jar under the heat of the sun and/or keep a
fan blowing near it on the lowest setting. Wait for crystals to form.
C. Explanation:
D. Elaboration:
Lead the pupils to formulate generalization by asking:
“How would you describe the process of separating mixture through evaporation
using the activity on making salt”?
2. For more information, guide the pupils to strengthen their understanding about
the following concepts:
salt water its saline taste is left behind. Salt ponds evaporate slowly at normal temperatures.
The salt left over from the evaporated ponds is then used to make table salt.
Evaporation is the process by which water and other liquids changes from a liquid
state to a vapor or gas state. Evaporation is great for separating a mixture (solution) of a
soluble solid and a solvent. The process involves heating the solution until the solvent
evaporates (turns into gas) leaving behind the solid residue.
Here is an example involving a mixture of salt and water.
To get the salt back from the salt water, the solution is heated to boiling point. As it
boils, the water escapes as vapour (gas). After sometime, all the water evaporates, leaving a
layer of salt at the bottom of the beaker.

D. Elaboration
Background Information For teachers
Sedimentation is a form of separating substances. This process involves letting an
insoluble substance (a substance that will not dissolve in a solvent) settle at the bottle of
a solvent. An example of this is if you mix chalk and water, the chalk will settle at the
bottom of the glass after being mixed in because it does not dissolve in water.
There are two processes of sedimentation. They are decanting and centrifuging.
DECANTING- this process is somewhat the easiest of the two. It involves letting the
mixture settle for a while. The heavier, insoluble substances will settle at the bottom of
the liquid. A clear liquid will be left at the top. Once it is taken out You have decanted
the liquid. The impure substances are left behind.
