They will separate out, with the most dense moving furthest away from the centre of rotation.

If you have two substances that are the same size and have similar densities how ever they have different boiling points how would you separate them?
Simply heat the mixture. Given that they have different boiling points, one will evaporate before the other and thus you will have two separate substances
Is window cleaner a pure substance or a mixture?
Window cleaner is mixture. It contains several different chemicals in solution. One of the main components is ammonia. Some natural cleaners use acetic acid.
Contains two or more gaseous liquid or solid substances blended evenly throughout the mixture?
Homogeneous because in my science book it says a homogeneous mixture contains two or more substances that are evenly mixed on a molecular level but still are not bonded together
A pure substance is an example of a homegenous mixture that is very evenly mixed. is that right?
A pure substance and a homogeneous mixture are two different things. A pure substance is anything that is completely by itself. (An element, pretty much) A homogeneous mixture is a mixture of 2+ compounds that you can not differentiate the separate substances in the product. Such as soda, it is all one color and one texture, but there are many compounds in it.
When are compounds not considered a pure substance?
As far as the scientific explanation goes something that is pure is free from every type of impurities. Compounds are the mixture of different substances which makes them containing more then one single material.
You rapidly swirl a mixture of substances with different densitites in a centrifuge what will happen?
Substances with greater densities will be pulled to the bottom of the test rube.
Using a machine how to separate oil and water?
One method to separate oil and water using a machine is by employing a centrifuge. The centrifuge spins the mixture at high speeds, causing the oil and water to separate due to their different densities. The separated layers can then be collected and extracted individually.
Why do liquids show varied densities?
Because liquids are different substances or mixture of substances; each chemical compound (substance) has a specific density.
If you have two substances that are the same size and have similar densities how ever they have different boiling points how would you separate them?
Simply heat the mixture. Given that they have different boiling points, one will evaporate before the other and thus you will have two separate substances
What what type of mixture that separates due to different densities?
Oil and Water

A mixture
How many cubic inches of steel equals an ounce?
The question cannot be answered since steel is a mixture of metals and non-metallic elements and so different forms of steel have different densities.

What method is used to separate parts of a solution when the entire solution can pass through filter?
There are a number of different ways to separate the parts of a mixture of liquids. Since the liquids in question usually have different boiling points, they can be separated by means of distillation. If they have significantly different densities, it may be possible to separate them be means of a centrifuge. The liquid can be poured onto paper and separated by means of chromatography, based on the different rates at which different substances diffuse through paper. In some cases freezing, rather than boiling, can be used as a means of distillation.
What physic property of substances makes it possible to separate a mixture by spinning at high speed?
Density allows a mixture to be separated by centrifugation.
Is candle wax heterogeneous or homogeneous mixture?
Wax is a generally considered as a homogenous mixture of several different longer-chain alkanes, esters and other compounds.
What is thing that separate a mixture?
Examples: filter, centrifuge.
