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.
