If you want the easiest, Sea salt from sea water. If you want to impress your teacher do petrol or aluminum.

The assignment asks for the uses of the products after separation. Bauxite only gives aluminium.


so idk if it would be a good mixture to do it on.

You'll be amazed what aluminium is used in. If that doesnt satisfy you, try copper.

Ye i get what you mean the wide variety of uses of aluminium. But then ill have to discuss a whole lot on just aluminium.

Names of actual mixtures would be appreciated.


thanks
