Ways To Separate Mixtures

Ways To Separate Mixtures

1. Mixture

   • a combination made by mixing other subtance together

2. Mixtures come in many forms and phases.Most of them can be separated, and the kind of separation method depends on the kind of mixture it is.

   • Paper Chromatography
     • This method is often used in the food industry. It is used to identify chemicals in food or inks.For example, if a scientist wants to know how many subtances are in a particular blob of ink,paper chromatography can be used
       • Example
   • Filtration
     • Is any of various mechanical,physycal or biological operations that separate solids from fluids by adding a medium through which only that fluid can pass
       • Example
   • Evaporation
     • Evaporation is great for separating a mixture of a soluble solid and a solvet.The process involves heating the solution until the solvent evaporates leaving behind the solid residue
       • Example:
   • Simple Distillation
     • Is a procedure by which two liquids with different boiling points can be separated, can be used effectively to separte liquids that have at least fifty degrees difference in their boiling points
       • Example
   • Fractional Distillation
     • Similar to simple distillation,fractional distillation is best for separating a solution of two miscible liquids.The fractinal method takes advantage of the different boiling points of the two liquids
       • Example:
   • Magnetism
     • Is which separating componetnts of mixtures by using magnets to attract magnetically susceptible materials. This separation technique can be useful in mining iron as it is attracted to a magnet
       • Example
   • Separating Funnel
     • In this technique, two liquids that do not disslove very well in each other can be separated by taking advantage of their unequeal density.A mixture of oil and water,for exmaple,can be separated by this technique
       • Example:
