Could you compare and contrast simple from steam distillation in terms of type of mixtures separated?

Simple and steam distillation are similar in that they use boiling to separate organic components. Simple distillation boils them off at their boiling points, then condenses them. Steam distillation uses water mixed with the compounds to lower their boiling points and avoid decomposing them by heat.


How do you form mixtures and separate their components?

As a mixture is not evenly mixed there are many ways to separate its components by some of these physical methods: FILTRATION CRYSTALLISATION EVAPORATION DISTILLATION CHROMATOGRAPHY


What is the process that separates components from mixtures?

In the petrochemical industry, this is called fractionation. Another common use is distillation.


What cannot be used to separate mixtures?

Mixtures can be separated using methods of purification (or separation techniques). Examples include filtration, crystallization etc. How a mixture can be separated will depend on its composition/properties.


What method is used to separate homogenous mixture whose components boil at different temperature?

The most common method for separating the components of a homogeneous mixture whose components boil at different temperature is distillation. If the boiling points are close to each other, multiple stages of distillation may be needed. Also note that not all homogeneous mixtures can be separated into their components this way, because some form mixtures called azeotropes that have a higher boiling point than either pure component. Ethanol and water, for example, form an azeotrope that contains about 95 % ethanol.

Can homogeneous mixtures be separated by distillation?

Certainly. The components just need different boiling points to be separated by distillation.


What method of separating mixtures be used to separate oil from oil-water mixture?

Most of the components of petroleum are separated by Fractional distillation.


Mixtures can be separated by distillation crystallization and chromotography?

yeahh of course


Mixtures can be separated by?

there are several ways to separate mixtures...evaporation, distillation, filtering, paper chromatograpy


Sample of mixture that can be separated by distillation?

A type of Mixture in which Solute and Solvent Both are liquid can be separated by Distillation. It is done on the basis of their boiling point and if boiling point is below 25 C then fractional distillation is done.


How could mixtures be separated?

Possibilities are: distillation, filtration, crystallisation, evaporation, precipitation, etc.


How can a mixtures be separated?

Methods are: distillation, sieving, decantation, filtration, ion exchange - depending on the type of mixture.


What is the methods of separation of mixtures?

Mixtures can be separated by: Distillation, Chromatography, Evapouration, Filtration, Decantation, Crystalization, Magnatisim, Sorting By Hand, Sifting
