How do you separate turmeric and water from their mixture?

To separate turmeric and water from their mixture, you can use a process called filtration. Here are the steps involved:

1. Prepare your materials. You will need:

* A funnel

* Filter paper

* A beaker or other container to collect the filtrate (the liquid that passes through the filter paper)

* A stirring rod

* A mixture of turmeric and water

2. Set up the filtration apparatus. Place the funnel in a ring stand or other support. Fold the filter paper in half twice, then open it up and place it in the funnel. Wet the filter paper with a small amount of water to help it stick to the funnel.

3. Pour the mixture into the funnel. Slowly pour the mixture of turmeric and water into the funnel.

4. Stir the mixture. Use a stirring rod to gently stir the mixture in the funnel. This will help to break up any clumps of turmeric and ensure that all of the liquid passes through the filter paper.

5. Collect the filtrate. The filtrate will collect in the beaker or other container that you placed under the funnel. The turmeric will remain on the filter paper.

6. Dispose of the filter paper. Once you have collected all of the filtrate, carefully remove the filter paper from the funnel and dispose of it in a trash can.

7. Clean up. Rinse the funnel and beaker with water to clean them.

8. The turmeric and water are now separated. The turmeric is on the filter paper, and the water is in the filtrate.
