Filtration
To separate an insoluble solid from a liquid. The solid remains in the filter paper and the liquid goes through the paper into the beaker.
A filter paper is placed inside a glass funnel and a container put beneath. The mixture of the solid and liquid is placed into the filter paper. The liquid flows through the filter paper and in to the container. The liquid in the container is called the filtrate.

Distallation

Distillation is based on the fact that the vapour of a boiling mixture will be richer in the components that have lower boiling points.
When this vapour is cooled and condensed, will contain more volatile components. At the same time, the original mixture will contain more of the less volatile material.

dECANTation

Decanting is just a mixture of solid and liquid or two immiscible liquids to settle and separate by gravity.

Evaporation

This method is suitable to separate a soluble solid from a liquid. If the solution is heated, the liquid evaporates leaving the solid behind.

cHromatography

To separate different coloured dyes. The dyes travel up the chromatography paper at different distances before they cannot remain in solution.
The more soluble dyes move further up than the less soluble ones, hence separating from each other.

Centrtifuge

Particles of different densities or sizes in a suspension will sediment at different rates, with the larger and denser particles sedimenting faster. These sedimentation rates can be increased by using centrifugal force.
