  "ProblemSolving": [
    {
      "question": "Describe the steps involved in separating a mixture of sand and salt.",
      "answer": "To separate sand and salt, first, add water to the mixture and stir. The salt dissolves in the water, while the sand settles at the bottom due to its heavier weight. Then, use decantation or filtration to separate the sand from the saltwater. Next, evaporate the water by heating it, leaving the salt behind. This method combines the processes of decantation, filtration, and evaporation."

    {
      "question": "How can we separate a mixture of rice and small pebbles?",
      "answer": "To separate rice and small pebbles, the most suitable method is handpicking. Since the pebbles are visibly larger than the rice grains, we can easily pick them out by hand and separate them. In some cases, sieving can also be used to remove the pebbles from the rice if the size difference is significant enough. Handpicking is typically preferred for this task."
    },
    {
      "question": "Explain the process of separating cream from milk, and why it is effective.",
      "answer": "The process of separating cream from milk is called churning. In this process, the milk is vigorously stirred, which causes the fat (cream) to clump together and separate from the liquid. The cream is less dense than milk, so it rises to the top, making it easy to skim off. This method is widely used in dairies and homes to produce cream and butter. Churning is effective because it leverages the difference in density between the fat and the liquid components of milk."

    {
      "question": "How would you separate a mixture of sugar and water if you want to recover both substances?",
      "answer": "To separate sugar and water from a solution, first, heat the mixture to evaporate the water. The water will turn into vapor and leave behind the sugar as a solid. To recover the water, you can use condensation. Collect the water vapor in a condenser, where it cools down and turns back into liquid form. This process allows you to recover both the sugar and the water, using evaporation and condensation."
    },
    {
      "question": "What method would you use to separate a mixture of muddy water, and how does it work?",
      "answer": "To separate muddy water, you would first use the process of sedimentation, where the heavier mud particles settle at the bottom. Then, you can pour out the clear water using decantation. If the water is still not clear, you can further filter it using a fine cloth or filter paper. Filtration removes the smaller particles that remain suspended in the water. This combination of sedimentation, decantation, and filtration is effective in obtaining clear water from a muddy mixture."
