A physical property such as size, shape, or density can be used to separate particles in a mixture. Common methods include filtration, distillation, chromatography, and centrifugation.
To separate a mixture, the appropriate piece of equipment depends on the nature of the mixture. For solid-liquid mixtures, a filter paper and funnel can be used for filtration, while for liquid-liquid mixtures, a separatory funnel is effective for decantation. If the mixture consists of different solids, a magnet can be used to separate magnetic materials. Lastly, centrifugation may be employed for separating components based on density.
Density allows a mixture to be separated by centrifugation.
A common object used to separate very small particles from a mixture is a sieve or a mesh strainer. These tools have fine openings that allow smaller particles to pass through while retaining larger ones. In laboratory settings, a centrifuge can also be employed to separate small particles based on their density by spinning the mixture rapidly.

Centrifugation is a method that uses spinning to separate a mixture based on differences in density or size of the components. When the mixture is spun at high speeds, the components separate and form distinct layers based on their properties.
When water is added to a mixture, the different components of the mixture can dissolve in the water or form separate layers depending on their solubility and density. Water can act as a solvent and help separate the components of the mixture, making it easier to distinguish between them.
If the mixture is a mixture of solids and if one of constituent is a ferromagnetic substance, a magnet can be used to separate the magnetic and non-magnetic substances. If one of the constituent is a sublimate, sublimation can be used. If the mixture is a mixture of solids and liquids, decantation, filtration and distillation can be used. If the mixture is a mixture of liquids, fractional distillation can be used to separate the different constituents taking advantage of the difference in boiling points of the different constituents.
relative density
Well, you have to be very specific about this question. Substances can separate in a compound mixture, such as chex mix, by pulling the stuff right out. Other stuff, maybe not.
