Question

Viscous mixtures can be separated through _____.
a. handpicking
b. evaporation
c. distillation
d. chromatography

Answer 1

Answer:

C. by the chromatography

Answer 2

Answer:

d. Chromatography is a method employed to separate Viscous mixtures.

Explanation:

Chromatography is a technique used for separating mixtures based on their densities. In chromatography, the viscosity of the mobile phase plays a crucial role.

It has two phases, namely the stationary phase and the mobile phase. The stationary phase may contain solid or liquid whereas mobile phase may contain liquid or gas.

In a mixture, the substance with low viscosity moves at a greater speed and stays in the mobile phase whereas the one with high viscosity stays in the stationary phase.

This helps in the separation of the substances in the mixture. Thus, chromatography is the method used for the separation of viscous mixtures.

Hence, option d) chromatography is the correct answer.
