Answer:
The formation of a meander. As the river erodes laterally, to the right side then the left side, it forms large bends, and then horseshoe-like loops called meanders . The formation of meanders is due to both deposition and erosion and meanders gradually migrate downstream.
Knees and elbows are two of the most common ones.
a balanced chemical equation occurs when the number of the atoms involved in the reactants side is equal to the number of atoms in the products side.
(2) Mg, Ca, and Ba have the most similar chemical properties, and we know this because of their coexistence in the group alkali earth metals (group 2) on the periodic table.
Answer:
Explanation:
This question seeks to test the knowledge of separation techniques.
From the narration in the question, the first separation to be done is the removal of Iron fillings by the use of magnet (magnetic separation). Since Iron is magnetic, the iron fillings will be attracted by the magnet hence removing the iron fillings from the mixture.
The second constituent to be removed will be the copper pieces by the use of a sieve (sieving). Copper pieces have relatively larger sizes than sand and common salt, hence a sieve (which separates particles based on size) can be used to remove the copper pieces from the mixture.
What will be left in the mixture after the processes above will be salt and water. This mixture will have to be dissolved in water; the salt will dissolve in water while the sand will not. After which, filtration will be done to remove the sand which will be collected on the filter paper as filtride and the salt solution will pass through the filter paper as filtrate.
The salt solution can then be evaporated to dryness to retrieve the solid salt from the solution.
The amount of salt in the mixture can then be measured using a weighing balance.
Some of safety measures to be taken during the course of this experiment includes performing the experiment in an airtight and controlled environment. Lab coat and hand gloves should be worn during the course of the experiment. The evaporation to dryness should not be done close to an inflammable material/substance
