SPI 0807.9.4 (Mixtures or Compounds)
A science student examined a combination of two substances. Each substance consisted of small solid particles. They were able to separate these two substances by using a magnet. By moving the magnet over this combination, all iron particles were removed.
How can you know for certain that this was mixture and not a compound?
a.
Because the parts could not be easily separated.
b.
Because the two substances chemically reacted with each other.
c.
Because the parts could be fairly easily separated.
d.
Because the two substances were both solids

SPI 0807.9.4 (Mixture or Compound)
One student claimed that soft drinks, tea, and Kool-aid drinks are mixtures. The teacher asked him to provide some evidence to support his statement.
What is one fact that the student could share to prove his claim?
a.
Water is the primary ingredient for each of these drinks.
b.
When these drinks are made, they foam, flash, fizzle, and give off heat.
c.
Each of these drinks are created by chemical reactions.
d.
When the ingredients of these drinks are mixed, no chemical reaction occurs.

SPI 0807.9.4 (Mixtures or Compounds)
Jackson and Tyrese worked together on an experiment in science class. The teacher gave them a beaker full of salt water, and their mission was to separate the ingredients. They were able to separate the salt from the H2O by boiling the water until all the liquid was converted into steam.
How can you be sure that this salt water was a mixture and not a compound?
a.
Because one ingredient was a liquid and the other ingredient was a solid.
b.
Because the ingredients, salt and water, were fairly easily separated.
c.
Because the parts of this combination could not be easily separated.
d.
Because the two substances chemically reacted with each other.

---Student 1 has a mixture.
---Student 2 has a compound.
Both students are attempting to separate the parts of their substances.
Which best describes a result of the separation processes?
a.
Each part of the compound will have different chemical properties.
b.
Only the mixture will go through a chemical change.
c.
Each part of the compound will gain mass during separation.
d.
Only the mixture will release heat when the parts are separated.
 

 9. 

SPI 0807.9.4 (Mixtures or Compounds)
A combination of salt and sugar grains is best classified as a mixture because...?
a.
no new chemical bonds are formed between the salt and sugar grains.
b.
the grains taste different from one another.
c.
a new product is formed when the salt and sugar grains are combined.
d.

 10. 

SPI 0807.9.4 (Mixtures or Compounds)
A scientist combined two liquids into a flask. The temperature of the flask increased, the combination started bubbling, and a strong odor was given off.
Was this an example of a mixture or a compound and why?
a.
It is a mixture because no chemical reaction occurred.
b.
It is a mixture because the temperature of the flask increased, and there was an odor.
c.
It is a compound because a chemical reaction occurred.
d.
It is a compound because there were two liquids combined together.
