Sequence in Separating Mixtures

1. Removing Water (Boiling Point 100 C) Alcohol (Boiling Point -78 C) AgCI Pebbles Nickel Styrofoam beads

   • First, let us remove the big solids from the liquids.
     • Perform Decantation
       • Perform Filtration
         • The Pebbles and the Styrofoam Beads should be separated from the mixture
           • We should now remove the Nickels by Magnet Seperation
             • Perform Magnet Separation
               • The Nickels should now be gone, all that are left are supposed to be : Water Alcohol and AgCI
                 • Time to separate water and alcohol, to separate them, you will have to do distillation,
                   • Perform Distillation
                     • Distillation: Separating Miscible Liquids with different boiling points
               • Magnet Separation: the process of separating metals from substances
         • Separating Insoluble Solid in Liquid
       • Allowing Heavy Substances to settle at the bottom of the container
