 What is It
A product is a substance produced during a natural, chemical or
manufacturing process for the consumers.
Labeling is the main method of communication between a manufacturer
and the uses of the product. The information attached to the product package is
what most consumers look at. Labeling l includes all other information received
from the manufacturer about the product when it is purchased.

Consumer Products Label

1. Product Name
It refers to the discipline of deciding what a product will be called.
2. Ingredients Statement
It is the mandatory section for packed goods in most international
standards. It aims to inform consumers about the composition of a product.
3. Directions for Use
It is the guidance or supervision that the consumers will use for the product.
4. Signal words
It is found on the product labels and they describe the acute (short-term)
toxicity of the formulated product.
5. Physical Quantity of a Product
It pertain the physical property of a product in terms of its physical
attributes.
6. Product Purpose
It is the description or the main purpose of the product.
7. Manufacturer
It refers to the company that uses raw materials and employee labor hours
to create finished products.

 Separation Techniques for Mixtures

It is the process for the separation of mixtures of immiscible

Source: Chemical Separation liquids or of a liquid and a solid mixture such as a
Techniques - Broad Learnings suspension.
Decantation

This technique involves the application of centrifugal force

to separate particles from a solution.
Source: Chemical Separation
Techniques - Broad Learnings

Centrifugation

This separation method is used to separate out pure

substances in mixtures comprised of particles some of
which are large enough in size to be captured with a porous
material.
Source: Chemical Separation
Techniques - Broad Learnings
Examples: Coffee filter, cloth, oil filter and sands
Filtration

It is the process where the components of a liquid mixture

are vaporized and the condensed and isolated.

Source: Chemical Separation

Techniques - Broad Learnings
Distillation

This is a technique of separating a mixture by passing it in

solution or suspension or as a vapor through a medium in
which the components move at different rates.

Example: Using chromatography paper to separate ink into

its original components.
Source: Chemical Separation
Techniques - Broad Learnings

Chromatography

This is the separation process that makes use of differences

Source: Chemical Separation in solubility in the melt or the solution.
Techniques - Broad Learnings

Crystallization

 A technique which involved solution is heated until organic
solvent turns into gas mostly leaving behind the solid
residue.

Example: Heating sugar water. The water evaporates and

Source: Chemical Separation
the sugar crystals are left behind.
Techniques - Broad Learnings

Evaporation
It is the process of separating components of mixtures by
using magnets to attract

Note: Not all metals are magnetic: gold, silver, and

aluminum are examples of metals that are not magnetic.

Magnetic
Separation

It is only useful when the particles are large enough to be

seen clearly.
