What are Separation Techniques?
This post will introduce some separation techniques and applications for Prelim Chemistry. A separation technique is a way to separate different components of a mixture based on physical properties.
Topic: Properties of Matter
- Explore homogeneous mixtures and heterogeneous mixtures through practical investigations:
- Using separation techniques based on physical properties
- Calculating percentage composition by weight of component elements and/or compounds
Introduction to Separation Techniques
Here is an introductory video to explore why we separate mixtures and what we look for when deciding which separation techniques to use.
