Separating mixtures

Separating mixtures

1. Magnetic separation

   • Magnets attract certain types of metas

2. Decantation

   • Heavy sediments in liquids sink to the bottom of a container

3. Filtration

   • Filtration separates much smaller particles from a liquid or gas

4. Evaporation

   • Solids which have been dissolved in a liquid can be separated using heat

5. Destillation

   • When two liquids evaporate at a different rate such as water and ethanol,the mixture can be separate using disillation
