Understanding Common Mixtures in Everyday Life

This educational content explores the concept of mixtures found in our daily lives, focusing on homogeneous and heterogeneous mixtures. Students will categorize various examples, such as the air we breathe, metal alloys, and rocks, to identify their properties. With engaging group activities and video resources, learners will differentiate between different types of mixtures, enhancing their understanding of materials around them. Join this exploration of the science behind the mixtures that make up our world!

  1. L.T: What are some common mixtures found in everyday life? Do Now: With you tablemates, partition (separate) the pictures in the envelope into 2 categories: Homogenous mixture and 2) Heterogeneous mixture. Record your answers on the back of yesterday’s guided notes. 7 mins

  2. Air as a Mixture The air in the atmosphere we is a mixture of Nitrogen (N), Oxygen (O), Carbon dioxide (CO2) and Water vapor (H2O(g)). Is the air we breathe a homogeneous or a heterogeneous mixture? Ans: Homogeneous mixture. It all looks the SAME. Next >

  3. Inquiry: What are mixtures? Rocks are also examples of mixtures. They are mixtures of different minerals. Are these rocks homogeneous or heterogeneous mixtures? Heterogeneous Mixtures. We can see the different parts

  4. Metal Mixtures Alloy: a mixture of different metals Typical metal alloys include: • Steel :mixture of Iron (Fe), Carbon (C), and Aluminum (Al) • Bronze : mixture of Copper (Cu) and Tin (Sn) • Brass: mixture of Cu and Zinc (Zn) • Solder: mixture of Sn and Lead (Pb) Are these homogeneous or heterogeneous mixtures? Homogeneous. The metal looks the SAME throughout

  5. Non-metals Metals (except H) Metal are at the left of the Black “staircase” line (except H) Non-Metals are at the right of the Black “staircase lined m

  6. L.T: What are some common mixtures found in everyday life? View the video “Use of Metals” and “Atomic Structure of an Alloy” In the Note catcher boxes for each video, record 3 things that you learned.
