sublimation
2. Why was this technique used? becoce
3. Why can't we use filtration technique for separation of this mixture?
4. Name two more substances which undergo sublimation
5. Suggest a sequence of separation technique you will use for separation of a
mixture of camphor, common salt and sand.
6. Label the diagram given below.

Answer:
1.Sublimation is a technique used to separate the components of a mixture containing a sublimable volatile solid and a non-sublimable impurity. Therefore, the mixture of camphor and sodium chloride can be separated by the process of sublimation.
2.The 5 Whys technique is a simple and effective tool for solving problems. Its primary goal is to find the exact reason that causes a given problem by asking a sequence of “Why” questions. ... It gives your team the confidence that it can eliminate any problem and prevent the process from recurring failures.
3.Insoluble particles can be separated from a mixture using filter paper in a funnel as shown below. The particles of solutes dissolved in a solution are so small that they can't be seen, and they can't be separated from a solution by filtration.
4.Camphor, maphthalene, ammonium chloride, iodine, and dry ice are some substances which undergo sublimation.
5.camphor can be separated using sublimation as it is a sublime,common salt and sand mixture can be separated using evaporation and filtration respectively.
