A magnet can be used to separate a magnetic substance
from a non-magnetic substance.

EVAPORATION
Evaporation to dryness is used to separate a dissolved
solid from a liquid. The dissolved solid must be heat-
stable.

SUBLIMATION
(Separating a solid that sublimes on
heating)
Sublimation is the process whereby the substances changes
from the solid that sublimes upon heating from another
substance with a high melting point.
This method has limited uses because very few solids will
sublime on heating. For e.g. ammonium salts, iodine, dry ice
(CO2)

CENTRIFUGATION
Centrifugation used to separates solids from liquids, or
separates two immiscible liquids, on the basis of density.

than oil. It will form the bottom layer. Open the tap. Allow
water (the bottom layer) to run into a beaker. Close the tap,
before the top layer runs out. Place another beaker below
the funnel. Open the tap to allow the oil to run out. 23:15:56

Simple Distillation
This is a technique used to separate a mixture of a soluble
substance and a solvent.
23:15:56

Fractional Distillation
This is the technique used to
separate a mixture of two or more
miscible liquids with different
boiling points.

Radial Chromatography
In this type of chromatography, as the pigment separates, the
different colours move outwards.
23:15:56

Ascending Chromatography
The solvent moves upwards on the separating media
23:15:56
+ 31
Descending Chromatography
The solvent moves downwards on the separating media.
