In order to complete this lab, my group went through the following procedure:
1. Remove the two red toothpicks from the cup with your fingers.
2. Remove the beans with the spoon (make sure you remove all of them).
3. Use the funnel and filter paper to isolate the water in the flask.
4. Remove the small piece of glass near the bottom of the cup.
5. Use a small amount of water in the flask and boil it on the hot plate for 5-10 minutes.
6. Remove the iron filings from the cup using the magnet, leaving the sand alone in the cup.
7. Use the magnifying glass to identify the buildup on the side and bottom of the flask after the water has boiled.
8. Identify each of the seven objects. You should have found glass, iron filings, toothpicks, water, salt, sand, and beans.
