CBSE Worksheet-17 Class - VI Science (Separation of Substances)

The document is a worksheet for class 6 science that covers the topic of separation of substances. It contains questions about different separation techniques like filtration, sedimentation, distillation, and handpicking. It asks students to identify the process used to obtain salt from seawater (evaporation and crystallization) and the impurities found in foods like rice and wheat (husks, stones, soil particles). The key provided explains that alum can be used to help dust particles settle faster in water and that sieving requires particles of different sizes.
