6.A mixture contains salt, zinc powder, and iron shavings. Salt is soluble in water, while both zinc and iron will dissolve (by reacting) in hydrochloric acid. Describe how you would separate the three components of this mixture.

answer: the rate of diffusion increases with increase in temperature.

increase in temperature, increases the molecular/particles speed (kinetic energy. diffusion means movement of particles through the material.

generally, the heavier the particle the more it interacts with the environment and more the temperature matters. so higher temperature results in higher diffusion.

6.4 cm (max) - 25 cm (min)

weight of any object is given by

w = m*g

where m is mass of the object and g is the acceleration due to gravity.

for earth the value of g is 9.8 m/s^2 so

w=117.6 n m=12 g=?

117.6=12g => g=9.8 m/s^2

which is the force of gravity on earth.
