What are impurities?

Imagine you're making a sandwich, and you accidentally put in a piece of paper along with your bread and cheese, that paper is like an impurity.

Impurities are things that shouldn't be there but end up mixed in with what you're trying to make. Just like the paper in your sandwich changes how it tastes or feels, impurities can change how something works or looks.

Think of a toy box, it's supposed to have only toys. But one day, you find a sock hiding among your blocks and cars. That sock is an impurity in the toy box. It wasn’t meant to be there, but now it’s part of the mix.

Sometimes, impurities are tiny, like specks of dirt in your chocolate or little pieces of another color in your crayon. They might not change much, but they can make things less perfect or even break them if they’re too big.

So next time you find something unexpected mixed in with what you're using, remember, that’s just an impurity, playing hide-and-seek!
