What allows you to separate the particles in a mixture?
Their physical properties
How could physical properties be used to separate the parts of a salad?
it of a matter or salad of the part separate
What is the separation of mixtures based on?
The physical properties of the things in the mixture. It could be that one part of the mixture is soluble, the other part insoluble - both physical properties. It could be that you use the boiling point of 2 liquids to separate them - physical properties. You could use a magnet if one part is magnetic and the other isn't - physical properties. And so on. But you are relying on physical properties rather than chemical properties.
What are some ways that industries use physical properties to separate substances?
The method of evaporation to separate substances in a mixture is purely physical because no chemical reaction occurs.
What are three uses of physical properties?
As you know physical properties define the physical characteristics of an object/ matter i.e. hardness, softness, color, etc. These attributes or characteristics are used to recognize the matter whether its solid, liquid or gas.
How would you use physical properties to separate sand from seashells?
I would sort them by a strainer

How is it easier to separate a mixture of seashells and marbles than a copper sulfate soulution?
Because you can separate seashells and marbles with your hands and you can't with copper sulfate
What are some properties of deuterium?
Deuterium, also known as heavy hydrogen, exhibits three separate properties: Physical properties, quantum properties and nuclear properties (the deuteron).
What techniques can be used to separate mixture?
The physical properties of substances can be used a a technique! :)
Why can you separate the components of mixture?
They have different molecular weights and chemical/physical properties.
