Question

Which method separate mixture of calcium carbonate and calcium cloride?

Answer 1

Mixtures containing a soluble compound with an insoluble compound must be separated before further analysis can be done. Separation can easily be achieved by dissolving the soluble compound in water. The insoluble compound will remain at the bottom in solid form and the soluble compound can be removed by decanting the liquid into a separate test tube. Use a centrifuge to speed up this process. The insoluble compound should be washed with water several times to remove all traces of soluble compound before subsequent analysis.
