benzene and water are immiscible liquids. therefore they have to be separated by means of a separating funnel.
you simply boil it and the petrol Will sit at the bottom while the kerosene sits at the top
By the process of fractional distillation
Kerosene is an oil therefore it will not mix well with water. The mixture should separate itself when settled. Then you can spoon or siphon the oil off the top of the water. These substances also freeze and boil at different temperatures so that can also be used as a method to separate them.
You could use the separation techniques of either distillation or a centrifuge.
fractional distillation
since benzene has a very less boiling point , it will evaporate easily if the mixture is heated . Thus we can obtain the vapour and condense it to obtain solid benzene
Kerosene is a mixture of hydrocarbons, specifically a fraction from the distillation of petrolem. Typical mixtures include alkanes, benzene derivatives. It has a density of around 0.8g/cc.
yes
Fractional distillation is used to separate the components of petroleum. Petrol (gasoline) evaporates at a lower temperature than kerosene evaporates at.

kerosene and petrol can be separated by the process of fractional distillation.
- Sand is separated by filtration- Kerosene is separated by decantation (or with a special separation funnel) from water
By the process of fractional distillation
You could do that. Or you could just suck the kerosene off the surface of the water with a hand funnel.
When sodium chloride dissolves in water it does so because the positive and negative ions are attracted to the polar water molecules. Benzene molecules are not polar so there is much less attraction.
