(3) June 2003 Q (6)
Beach sand is a mixture of sand and broken shells (calcium carbonate).Calcium carbonate reacts with dilute hydrochloric acid to form a solution ofcalcium chloride.
Plan an investigation to find out the percentage of shell material in a givensample of beach sand.

Filteration
D liquid is evapourated to obtain crystals
1) take a 10 g of beach sand in a beaker
2) add excess of dilute hydrochloric acid to beach sand
3) filter to remove sand from the solution of calcium chloride
4) wash the sand to remove the traces of solution
5) dry residue (sand)
6) weight the sand
mass of shell = mass of beach sand - mass of sand
% of shell = (mass of shell / mass of beach sand) X 100

7 Leaves from trees contain a mixture of coloured pigments which are not
soluble in water. A student was given these two instructions to investigate thepigments in the leaves.
1. Crush some leaves to extract the coloured pigments.
2. Use the liquid extract to find the number of coloured pigments in the leaves.
(a) What would the student need in order to effectively carry out instruction 1?
