Seperation techniques

Question 1

What are the 4 separation techniques?

Answer 1

Filtration, crystallisation, distillation and chromatography

Question 2

What does filtration separate ?

Answer 2

Insoluble solids from liquids

Question 3

What does crystallisation separate ?

Answer 3

Dissolved solutes and solvents

Question 4

What does distillation separate ?

Answer 4

A solvent form a mixture

Question 5

What does chromatography seperate ?

Answer 5

Mixtures of soluble substances

Question 6

How is filtration done ?

Answer 6

Pouring the mixture through filter paper do the insoluble solid is trapped and the liquid that runs through the paper is collected bellow

Question 7

How is chromatography done ?

Answer 7

1) place a drop of solution to be separated near the bottom of the chromatography paper
2) Dip the bottom of the paper into a suitable solvent
3) The solvent moves up the paper and carries the solute in the solution with it
4) Different solutes move at different speeds so they can separate on the paper

Question 8

How is crystallisation done?

Answer 8

1) heating the mixture so the solvent evaporates
2) Then crystals of the solute will form
3) Last,y we will collect the solvent by condensing it as it evaporates

Question 9

How is distillation done?

Answer 9

By heating the mixture of liquids to create Vapor which is then cooled and condensed to separate the liquids
