Density. Centrifuging the mix would cause the nails to go to the outside of the tub. Dumping the mix in water would cause the nails to go the bottom, and the peanuts to float. Throwing the mix in the air would result in the peanuts falling a few feet away, and the nails going further.
IN ADDITION:A magnet would separate the two. A fan will also. If you dipped them both in gasoline, the peanuts would dissolve, leaving the nails.
What else can I help you with?
A substance can be seperated into simpler parts through differences in physical properties?
Yes, substances can be separated into simpler parts through techniques such as distillation, filtration, chromatography, and crystallization, which take advantage of differences in physical properties such as boiling point, solubility, particle size, or density. These methods allow for the isolation of individual components based on their unique physical characteristics.
When would it be easy to use only your hands to separate mixture?
It would be easy to use only your hands to separate a mixture when the components have distinct physical properties such as size, shape, or texture that allow you to pick them apart easily. If the components are large enough to be easily distinguishable and separate with your hands, then hand separation would work well.
Why when you mix 2 elements together you can often separate them again quite easily?
Mixtures can be separated easily, liquids by distillation, gases can be made into a liquid , and then heated gently to tap the gases off ( also called distillation) solids are a little more difficult and depend on the mixture.Compounds are much harder to separate because they are chemically bonded together.They can be separated by electrolysis but this takes a large amount of energy.
Iron filings could be separated from sand using?
a magnet. The magnetic properties of iron allow it to be attracted to a magnet, making it easy to separate from non-magnetic substances like sand.
What are the properties of methanol allows the three liquids to form a homogeneous mixture?
The properties of methanol that allow it to form a homogeneous mixture with water and ethanol are its high miscibility with water and ethanol due to its polar nature. Methanol is able to hydrogen bond with water and ethanol molecules, which helps it mix uniformly with these substances, forming a homogeneous solution.
What is there about mixtures that allow them to be separated using physical properties?
This is possible because components of a mixture haven't chemical bonds between them.
Which two physical properties allow a mixture to be separated by chromatography?
Size and shape. However, chemical properties are usually more important.
What allow a mixture to be separated by distillation?
Distillation allows a mixture to be separated into component liquids by boiling point.
A substance can be seperated into simpler parts through differences in physical properties?
Yes, substances can be separated into simpler parts through techniques such as distillation, filtration, chromatography, and crystallization, which take advantage of differences in physical properties such as boiling point, solubility, particle size, or density. These methods allow for the isolation of individual components based on their unique physical characteristics.
Why is it possible to separate substances in a mixture?
Substances in a mixture can be separated because they have different physical or chemical properties that allow them to be sorted out. Techniques like filtration, distillation, chromatography, and magnetism take advantage of these differences to isolate the individual components.
What properties allow items to be removed from a mixture?
Size, magnetism, and solubility
What physical properties allow us to identify salt?
The taste
How we can separate oil from water?
Allow the mixture to sit until the oil and water have separated. Then pour off the oil.
Is filtering a mixture a chemical or physical change?
it is a physical change because the appearance just changed.
What physical property would allow you to seprate a mixture of iron filings and soil?
Magnet
What physical property would you allow you to separate a mixture of iron filling and soil?
a screen
How does chormatogrphy is used?
Principle of chromatography is used to separated off mixed of compound allow us to identified what the mixture made off.
