show diagrammatically how will you separate the following: immiscible liquids, miscible liquids, coloured components of spinach leaves, filtration and centrifugation.
Answers
The mixture of water and acetone is separated by a process called Fractional Distillation. Fraction Distillation is a process of heating a mixture of two liquids which have a difference in their boiling points. The liquid which has less boiling point turns into vapours and the other liquid is left back
Separating the Components of a Mixture
We have learnt that most of the natural substances are not chemically pure. Different methods of separation are used to get individual components from a mixture. Separation makes it possible to study and use the individual components of a mixture.
Heterogeneous mixtures can be separated into their respective constituents by simple physical methods like handpicking, sieving, filtration that we use in our day-to-day life. Sometimes special techniques have to be used for the separation of the components of a mixture.
