Separating
Mixtures
 A mixture is composed of two or more
types of matter that can be present in
varying amounts.
 It can be physically separated by using
methods that use physical properties to
separate the components of the mixture,
such as evaporation, distillation,
filtration and chromatography.
Filtration
 Some heterogeneous
mixtures with large solids can
be separated using strainers
 But some particles of
suspensions are too small to
be strained
 fine suspended particles are
instead filtered using filter
paper
• Filter paper has finer holes
for water to pass through
but not ground coffee
• Filtrate - liquid that passed
the filter
• Residue - insoluble large
molecules that are left
behind
Sedimentation
and Decantation.
Sedimentation is a process
that allows the sediments
(solid particles) to settle at
the bottom of a container.
Decantation
• Decantation is pouring or scooping the
topmost liquid.
• The process can be carried out by tilting
the mixture after pouring out the top layer.
• Immiscible liquids- liquids that do not mix
(e.g. oil and water)
• Separating immiscible liquids is not simple
in large scale situations just like oil spills
• Some use ships with pumps to suction out
the oil
Sieving
• Separation
using strainers
• Separating
components
of a mixture by
sizes
Sedimentation,
decantation,
and filtration
 are useful separating
techniques such as in water
purification.
 to purify water, suspended
particles are filtered out while
substances that is heavier than
water are made to settle out
through sedimentation and
removed through decantation.
Evaporation
• The method used to separate salt from
seawater
• Evaporation is when liquid becomes
gas because of heat
• Evaporation can be used to purify
water
• Water evaporates, leaving the
impurities behind
• Water vapor then condensed back
into being pure liquid water
Distillation
• It is used in homogeneous
mixtures whose
components have a big
difference in boiling points.
• Distillation is important in
the petroleum and wine
industries.
Crude Petroleum
• It is distilled to obtain different products such as
gasoline, diesel, fuel, kerosine, oil, and other
petroleum products.
Alcoholic
Beverages
 Different
kinds of
alcoholic
drinks are
made from
wine through
distillation.

Magnetism
 Components of solid mixtures can
also be separated through
magnetism.
 This process is commonly used in
mining where magnetic materials
such as iron are extracted from
the soil.
 Landfills and junkyards use strong
magnets to segregate metallic
objects from other materials.
Crystallization
 is the process by which a solid
forms, where the atoms or
molecules are highly organized into
a structure known as a crystal.
Some of the ways by which crystals
form are precipitating from a
solution, freezing, or more rarely
deposition directly from a gas.
 E.g. Making rock salt from seawater
and rock candies, such as lollipops.
 Complete evaporation of water
results to the formation of
crystallization.
Sublimation
 Is used to separate
components of a solid
mixture.
 One components to
separated in this
mixture will turn into
gas.
Example of
Sublimation
Dry Ice

Sublimation
Water Cycle
Chromatography
 Separates the different
components of a mixture
using an absorbent
material.
 The most common form
of chromatography is
paper chromatography.
Examples of
Chromatography
Creating
vaccinations
Food testing
Beverage
testing
Forensic testing
It’s recap time!!
 Mixtures may be separated through physical means. The
common separation procedures are filtration,
sedimentation, decantation, and distillation.
 Special techniques such as magnetic separation,
crystallization, sublimation, and chromatography are
also employed in different laboratories and industries.
