Explain the principle involved in filtration sedimentation and evaporation
Answers
Principle of filtration is based on the principle of size differences between the particles. Evaporation is the phenomenon of change of a liquid into vapour at a temperature below its boiling point. Separating funnel works on the principle of immiscibility of the two liquids.
Answer:
Sedimentation is based on specific gravity.
Evaporation is based on the vaporization of liquid before its melting point.
Explanation:
Sedimentation
Sedimentation is a process that is used to separate solid particles from suspended water solid. In this process, the specific gravity of a solid is more than that of water so that solid particles settle down.
Evaporation
Evaporation is a process that is used to separate solid particles dissolved in liquid. In this process boiling point of a solid particle should be higher than that of the liquid.
