Day 2

Aim: The aim is to make the dirty water clean again.

Method

1. Make sure all funnels all lined up

2.Slowly pour dirty water into the first funnel

3.Make sure it is not going to leak before starting your blog

4.A group member needs to check it every 5 minutes

Discussion:

Firstly you mix the solute (dirt) and solvent (water) and mix them together making the solution (dirty water). 

After That we added more solvent (oil) that made the water and dirt separate. Now that there is a lot more solvent it dilutes the water and oil.

After that we filtered the water with a cloth and filter paper Three times and it partly worked but the water solvent was still a little bit yellow.

It kind of worked but the water was still yellow and undrinkable. The things I would do differently are adding more filters and so the water comes out more clear.
