The abilities of the compounds to absorb and their solubility are the physical properties used in the separation of components via chromatography. Boiling points are not typically used in chromatography, as the separation technique relies more on differences in absorption and solubility to separate compounds.
Chromatography is called a separation technique because it separates different components of a mixture based on their different affinities for the stationary phase (solid or liquid) and the mobile phase (gas or liquid). As the mixture passes through the stationary phase, the components interact differently and move at different rates, leading to separation.
- the physical nature of the components- the chemical nature of the components- the amount of the mixture- the availability of necessary devices and materials for separation- the price of componentsetc.
To separate a mixture, first identify the physical properties of the components, such as boiling point or solubility. Then, choose a suitable separation technique based on these properties, such as distillation for volatile components or filtration for insoluble solids. Finally, apply the chosen technique sequentially to isolate the components effectively.
Yes, freezing is a physical method of separation that relies on the differences in freezing points of substances to separate them. When a mixture is frozen, components with different freezing points will solidify at different temperatures, allowing them to be separated based on their physical state.
Separation by density
Centrifugation is a separation technique that relies on the components of a mixture settling into layers based on their densities. By spinning the mixture at high speeds, the heavier components move to the bottom, while the lighter components stay at the top, allowing for easy separation.
Decanting as a separation technique relies on the difference in density between the components in a mixture. Heavier components settle at the bottom while lighter ones remain on top, allowing for the pouring off of the lighter component.

Separation by chromatograhy
Chromatography is called a separation technique because it separates different components of a mixture based on their different affinities for the stationary phase (solid or liquid) and the mobile phase (gas or liquid). As the mixture passes through the stationary phase, the components interact differently and move at different rates, leading to separation.
Distillation is a separation technique used to separate components in a mixture based on differences in boiling points. The mixture is heated to vaporize the components, and then the vapors are condensed back into liquid form. Chromatography is a technique that separates components based on their affinity for a stationary phase and a mobile phase. As the mixture moves through a stationary phase (such as a column packed with beads), components with different affinities will travel at different speeds, leading to separation.
If a solvent were to be saved, distillation would be the separation technique of choice. Distillation involves heating the mixture to separate components based on their different boiling points, allowing the solvent to be collected and reused.
As an isolated process milling is not a separation technique.
Fractional distillation is only useful if the components are liquid, and the separation is based on boiling point. Another, more applicable method would be chromatography, either thin layer, paper, or column.
