This is the last activity in the foundation section on mixtures.
It provides and opportunity for students to relate particle
theory ideas to different samples. If students do not select
a correct set of answers, they will have a chance to try again.
The correct answers are:
1. |
Sea water: mixture
of all the types of particles, with several ‘other’
particles visible. |
2. |
Air: no ‘other’
particles, just a mix of nitrogen, oxygen and water
particles; the spacing between particles
shows the sample is in the gaseous state. |
3. |
Clouds: A mix of
nitrogen, oxygen and water particles, but with the water
particles in ‘clumps’. |
4. |
Raindrops: Mostly
water particles with some nitrogen and oxygen particles;
the spacing suggests the sample is
in the liquid state. |
5. |
River water: a
mixture of all of the types of particles, with few ‘other’
particles visible. |
The third and final foundation section follows on directly
from this activity, and deals with ‘changing substances’.
